How to get there

FLIGHTS direct to Paphos can be found readily through websites like www.TravelRepublic.co.uk, lastminute.com and flightsdirect.com. Look for Charter flight deals with for example Thomas Cook and in particularly Excel Airways. Of course Cyprus Airways flys direct from Heathrow Airport.

British Airways seem good with cheap deals sometimes from about £120.00 return. Direct flights from Birmingham or Gatwick are generally available for around £130 to £250 adult return depending on when you go. If you are able to fly in mid week it helps a lot. Some flights go via Manchester.

There are taxis and coaches from Paphos Airport. Expect to pay a taxi £17-25 for the 20 minute drive.
Queen's Gardens is off the The Tomb of the Kings Road, Kato Paphos very close to restaurants and amenities for when you arrive.

There are several car companies operating out of Paphos Airport, depending on the season expect to pay approx £12 per day for a basic car. Some car companies charge separately for insurance and petrol whilst some include it in their price. If you are planning a trip to the Troodos mountains or to the Baths of Adonis then a four wheel drive would be recommended. Deals are sometimes done on a four wheel drive, but in peak season they can cost as much as £25.00 per day. Most companies expect a full licence which has been held between 1-2 years. Driving is on the left side of the road so there is no difference if you are from the United Kingdom. There is underground parking at the flat and an allocated parking space for you to keep the car. Alternatively if you wish to have a car for a few days then there are several car hire companies on the Tomb of the Kings Road, several are quite happy to collect the car from the airport if you wish to leave it there at the end of the holiday. We are quite happy to recommend car companies to you and if you let us know in adavance we will be able to tell you what deals they have on the vehicle that you require.

If you wish to fly into Larnaca airport, then it is almost inevitable that you will need a car. During peak season, when flights get booked up, some people find that there are still deals if you fly into Larnaca. Larnaca International Airport is approx 140km (87 miles) from Paphos. Again there are several car rental companies operating out of the airport.

Please note that if you are travelling by air into Cyprus, you may enter only through the International airports of Paphos or Larnaca. Airports in the occupied North of Cyprus have been declared closed by the Republic of Cyprus and as such you are viewed as having made an illegal entrance into Cyprus if you travel to the Southern parts of the Island.

There are ferry boat cruises from Cyprus to Lebanon, Syria, Egypt, Greece and the Greek Islands. Cyprus is often referred to as the gateway to the Eastern Mediterranean. Many cruise companies take you through that gateway to the Eastern Mediterranean from the port of Lemesos (Limassol). For more information on this look on the Cyprus Tourist Board website or alternatively contact the following agents www.louiscruises.com and www-salamis-tours.com. Please note that these travel agents are one of many agents and do not carry a personal recommendation by us. Cruises can be arranged from as little as two days to longer periods, two day options in the summer months include two day cruises to Lebanon, which includes a visit to Beirut for shopping.
