Deputy Ministry of TourismMaria Solomonidou — “Getting to Know the Bee”

Authentic Cypriot hospitality and hands-on education are at the heart of everything we do every day at Oros Machaira. We feel doubly proud, as this effort was recognised by our country’s national tourism authority.

At the Cyprus Hospitality Awards ceremony, the Deputy Ministry of Tourism presented the 1st Prize in the “Enrichment Activity Experience” category to Maria Solomonidou, for the educational and experiential programme “Getting to Know the Bee”.

This award does not belong merely to an activity, but to the person behind it. With her ever-present smile and her respect for nature, Maria has managed to turn a visit to our apiary into an unforgettable life experience that enriches Cyprus’s tourism offering.
