Why rent a car in Cyprus?
It’s a great idea to rent a car in Cyprus. With its beautiful beaches, constantly great weather, and hospitable locals, it is a pleasure to explore it from east to west, and having your own ride gives you the freedom to do that.
Top ways to enter Cyprus

- Paphos Airport: Small and cozy, Paphos Airport is mainly active during the summers and is popular among many low-cost carriers.
Top cities and places to visit
- Larnaca: Although modern and busy, Larnaca is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world and holds many traces of its long history.

- Limassol: The many beaches of this coastal city offer everything from relaxation to opportunities for doing different waters.
- Troodos Mountains: The most hilly part of Cyprus is pleasantly green and offers amazing views of the island.
- Pitsilia: More traditional than the rest of the island, the villages of Pitsilia region is where you can see what some would consider the real Cyprus.
Most popular rental car
The most popular rental car in Cyprus is the Kia Picanto, closely followed by the Suzuki Alto and the Chevrolet Spark.
Crossing Borders
Cyprus’ only neighbor is Northern Cyprus. It is a de facto separate entity with its own laws, customs etc. You may or may not need a visa to visit Northern Cyprus, depending on your citizenship. We advise consulting your Ministry of Foreign Affairs to find out more.
Many rental car providers do not permit crossing the border into Northern Cyprus. Some will permit it, but even in this case you won’t be able to drop off the car in Northern Cyprus - you will have to return to Cyprus and drop off your car there.
Most popular types of rental car
The type of car rented most often in Cyprus is a mini, but economy and compact are also popular.
Top driving routes
Larnaca - Paphos (134 km / 83 mi) You can travel between the two Cypriot cities with international airports in just about 90 minutes.
Limassol - Larnaca (68 km / 43 mi) From one beach destination to the other, Limassol and Larnaca are just a 50 minute ride apart.
Nicosia - Paphos (153 km / 95 mi) The fastest route will take you through Limassol and along the coast, but it might be even more rewarding to travel through inland and visit places around Agros or Nikitari instead.

Renting a car in Paphos or Cyprus in general is a must. The vistas are amazing, the nature is beautiful and you won't be able to see it all just by walking. The roads can be tricky though, their condition is not the best, so make sure you get a decent car or a jeep.

We were a family of 4 people, hiring 2 smaller motor vehicles worked out better than 1 large motor vehicle, especially when we all didn't want to travel, the other family members had at least a car to their disposal! Fantastic prices as well!

Hire a car and explore the beauties of Cyprus. Go up to the Troodos Mountains and discover amazing cultural, religious and scenic treasures. Cyprus is a lot more than sun and sea. Go travelling and be prepared to be amazed.
