Paphos, on the far west coast with its UNESCO sites and resorts, is the longest common run from Larnaca (Paphos also has its own airport). Here is how to make the trip, whichever way suits your budget and luggage.
| Option | Time | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Private transfer | ~80 min | Fixed price, door-to-door, groups & luggage |
| Taxi | ~80 min | On demand at arrivals; agree the fare first |
| Bus / coach | longer | Cheapest; there is no simple direct public bus — a private transfer or rental car is the sensible choice |
| Rental car | ~80 min | Exploring at your own pace (drive on the left) |
A pre-booked transfer is the calmest way to reach Paphos: a fixed price agreed in advance, a driver waiting in the arrivals hall, and a direct door-to-door ride with no stops — ideal after a long flight, with a family, or with lots of luggage. See our private transfers guide.
Licensed taxis wait outside arrivals. Cyprus taxis are metered, but for a longer run like Paphos many drivers agree a fixed price — confirm the fare before you set off. A standard taxi seats up to four with luggage. See our airport taxis guide.
On a budget, there is no simple direct public bus — a private transfer or rental car is the sensible choice — see our buses & shuttle guide; buses run to a timetable with limited late service and little luggage space. To explore Cyprus freely, a rental car from the terminal is ideal — remember Cyprus drives on the left. Prices, times and timetables change, so confirm close to your travel date.
Pre-book a private transfer — compare prices, a fixed rate, door-to-door, with a driver waiting at arrivals.
