Transportation in Cyprus

You'll have various Cyprus transport facilities in the country, as busses, trains, flights rented cabs, etc. are available. So, Cyprus transport is not a problem at all. Some of the details about Cyprus transport are enumerated for your help.

› ROAD:
Bus
: Services connect all towns and villages on the island every day except Sunday. Service is efficient and cheap. Although the local buses are sometimes slow, they are a good way of seeing the more remote villages.

Taxi:
These run 24 hours a day between all the main towns on the island. Fares are regulated by the Government and all taxis have meters. Transurban Service Taxis offers an excellent, cheap service using seven-seat taxis running fixed routes between main points. Taxis run to a timetable and delivery is door to door. Fares under this system are often one-tenth of the usual rate.

Car hire : Cars are one of the best ways to explore the island. They may be hired at airports and commercial centers, but should be reserved well in advance during the summer season. Reduced tariffs are offered if cars are hired for more than a week. Road signs are in both Greek and English. Traffic drives on the left. Although most roads are of a good standard, the driving standards of others may be of a lower standard than that in the UK or elsewhere. It should also be noted that there are strict repercussions for those not wearing seatbelts or a crash helmet, or using a mobile telephone/under the influence of alcohol whilst driving.

Motorcycles: Riders and pillion passengers should always wear crash helmets if the motorcycle is over 50cc.
