How much does a trip to Cyprus cost

Beyond the room, daily costs are moderate for the eurozone. An inexpensive meal is about 12 € and a restaurant meal about 25 €. A short bus trip is about 1.50 €. Cards are accepted almost everywhere. The currency is the euro, and ATMs are easy to find.

When is the best time to visit Cyprus

Summer is long and sunny, and the beach season runs from late spring to autumn. Price data suggests March tends to be the cheapest and April the most expensive. Spring and autumn are a good time for the ancient sites, when it is not too hot.

Getting to and around Cyprus

The main airport is Larnaca, with a second at Paphos, both served by plenty of low-cost routes from Europe. Buses link all the cities, with a short trip costing about 1.50 €. A rental car is the most convenient option, but remember they drive on the left. Cyprus is part of the European Union and the eurozone.
