Taming Naughty Donkeys in Limassol

What to Expect

Monastery wonders and beautiful views
On the way to the foothills of Troodos, we will stop to enjoy the magnificent panoramic view of Limassol. You will visit the Panagia Amiri Convent, home to the miraculous icon and healing spring – don't forget to bring a bottle to collect water. We will tell you the legend of the monastery's origins and stories of numerous healings. Walking through the garden, you can enjoy magnificent views from the terraces or come across a cute cactus garden.

Comfort for both people and animals
We will visit the eco-farm certified by the Donkey Sanctuary Association, confirming that the animals receive proper care and are surrounded by the love of the owners of this wonderful place. Here is comfortable for people too: there is a tavern, cafe, pool (bring your swimsuit), relaxation area with sun loungers, children's playground, turtle pond. Kids will delight in the bird yard where peacocks, fluffy chickens, turkeys, and geese roam. And of course, the adorable donkeys will not leave anyone indifferent.

What's the benefit of these donkeys?
Riding a donkey, we will head to the upper part of the farm, to the herd. There you will learn about the animals' lifestyle, the benefits they bring to humans, how they were used by the residents of Cyprus in the past, the value of donkey milk, and its healing and cosmetic properties. There is also Treuh, a remarkable donkey with three ears living on the farm. If you get to ride Treuh, make a wish – it will definitely come true. You can also taste unusual jams made from fruits, nuts, and vegetables for free, try Commandaria and Zivania wines. Optionally, you can purchase organic olive oil and cosmetics made from healing donkey milk.
