Travelling Cyprus? Consider car rent! Avoid Cyprus buses and taxis!

First time Cyprus visitors assume that public transport, especially buses, is the best transport. They wrong. Actually a bus is the worst option. And here is why.

Generally, new and comfort buses operate in the holiday season between the main resorts. But as a rule, you’ll get an old bus with goofy gear and without air condition. Here is an old bus at streets of Ayia Napa. So if you love comfort or travelling with small kids, rent a minibus.

Cyprus taxis, including minibuses, are a great way to travel short distance. But make a habit to check a meter before getting in. Sometimes local drivers want to trick you. Also make sure driver switches a meter off when you stop.

Despite availability of taxis car rental is still the best option, because it pays off. You don’t need to pay for a ticket or taxi each time you want to get somewhere. Cheap gas and rental prices, short distances between Cyprus sights and amenities make your stay in Cyprus unforgettable.
