Car Hire Advice Cyprus
Deciding on whether or not to hire a car in Cyprus is not hard. The island is beautiful and by far the best holidays are the ones were the island is explored by car. While it may be more expensive, there are so many more benefits, especially if you are travelling with a large party. Travelling from Paphos (west side) to Ayia Napa (east side) takes roughly an hour.

Vehicles are available in manual and automatic and some of the roads (especially roads off the beaten track) can be bumpy.
