2011

Cyprus Walks Etc was formed as a concept.

We begin offering the first guided walks. We also started work on designing self-guided walking trip packages for associates.

We concluded the first agreement with European associates and started offering services related to self-guided walking trips. Developed a guided coastal sea exploration service on personal waterbikes and started offering the service.

Cyprus Walks Etc was one of three finalists for the CSTI award in 2016. The menu of our associates, services and customers continues to grow.

2017

2017 - Storax Ecoprojects ltd is registered. From September 2017, the operations of Cyprus Walks Etc are transferred to a newly registered company, Storax Ecoprojects ltd. Storax is a tree found naturally in many parts of Cyprus ('Στύραξ' in Greek and 'Στερατζιά' in the Greek Cypriot dialect, especially but not exclusively, in valleys, close to the riverbed. It bears beautiful white flowers and green non-edible fruit.  Its wood is highly prized and the fruit has been used since antiquity for medicinal purposes. In 2017 Storax extended its network of associates to include an Israeli operator.

2019

Escooter exploration to be added to our services. We received our first specialised escooters in  September 2019. We are planning to add self-guided and guided escooter exploration in our menu of services, as we believe that escooters provide an environmentally friendly, fun way to explore beautiful Cyprus.

​Our operations are steadily expanding, with autumn 2019 being the busiest season Cyprus Walks Etc had to date.

2020

Hit by the pandemic - offer also snorkelling trips. As it happened around the world, our operations came to an abrupt stall from March 2020. 2020 was of course an irregular season for Cyprus Walks Etc, which nevertheless gave us teh opportunity to develop and test new services.

From September 2020 we are offering snorkelling trips around Cyprus and we have the relevant equipment (of course also to regards safety).

2022

From 2022 we are offering guided kayaking trips along beautiful stretches of Cyprus coastline. We offer standard trips along the Agia Napa Sea Caves and the Cape Greko Sea Caves, as well as along the east coast of Cape Greko. The service has proved very popular and we are adding two more kayaks (taking the maximum number of guided kayakers to four).

In 2022 we expanded our network or associates further, and composed new self-guided walking packages, especially ones exclusively around the Akamas peninsula and others exclusively around Troodos mountains.

In late 2022 our multilingual website is scheduled to be launched.

2024

2023 - 2024 - the business expands. The number of associates and customers increase. In late 2024 new kayaking equipment is bought in order to be more mobile, handle the sea when it is not as calm,offer more exotic kayaking experiences (longer trips) and also offer twice the number of short trips per day.

2025

  • From 2025 we use sea touring kayaks for our standard coastal sea exploration trips. This makes the experience more comfortable when the sea is not very calm. They are faster and more advanced watercraft (and they can take heavier loads).

  • In 2025 we added a new service in our menu: self-guided day walking trips - we provide info about specific walks and taxi rides as needed (only one-way taxi if that makes sense). Some of the 'exotic' routes include the 2 Unesco churches and the White Cliffs.

  • In 2025 we started promoting exploration trips around the White Cliffs, one of the most extraordinary natural attractions in Cyprus. We offer a combo guided kayaking/walking trip and self-guided easy walking trips (also customisable guided trips)
