Hey world travelers! We are the Daniels’, the founders of FAB Private Customized Tours. We are extremely grateful to have been born and raised in one of the greatest islands in the world. As Cypriots, we have had the privilege of being surrounded by culture, history, beaches and of course good food. We spent our childhood exploring and researching not only our hometown but the entire island of Cyprus. Each area provides a unique experience filled with adventure and excitement. Due to all our adventures, our love for Cyprus’s history grew and shaped to who we are today. We are a family run business, who believes in providing top quality customer service and value for money.
