Getting Around Cyprus

Every bus route running today, city by city, straight from the official timetable data. Fares, day passes, intercity coaches and airport links, all in one place.

Can you get around Cyprus without a car? Yes, more easily than most visitors expect. Every city has its own bus network: NPT in Nicosia, EMEL in Limassol, LPT in Larnaca, OSYPA in Paphos and OSEA around Ayia Napa, Protaras and Paralimni, with Intercity Buses linking the cities by motorway coach. There are no trains or trams on the island, so buses are the whole public transport story. For villages, wild beaches and the Troodos backroads, a hire car still wins.

The route tables below are rebuilt every day from the official Cyprus public transport open data, so what you see is what is actually running today, including first and last departures. Plan door to door with the official Motion journey planner, watch buses move in real time on BusCyprus, or just use Google Maps, Cyprus bus times are loaded into it.

Routes running today: Sunday 01 November 2026

Flying in or out

Getting to and from the airports

Cyprus has two airports, Larnaca (LCA) and Paphos (PFO). Both are well connected without a car.

Larnaca Airport: LPT route 425 links the terminal with Larnaca station and the Finikoudes seafront all day and into the night, and intercity coaches stop at the airport on selected runs (€4 to €10 by distance). Paphos Airport: OSYPA route 612 runs to the Kato Paphos hotel strip and harbour, route 613 to Karavella station.

What the airport buses cost: the same as any other city bus, there is no airport supplement. That means €2.70 cash or €2 with a Motion card on Larnaca’s 425, and a flat €2 on Paphos’s 612 and 613.

Direct shuttles: the private Kapnos Airport Shuttle runs Larnaca Airport to Nicosia for €9 one way, and from Paphos Airport to Nicosia or Larnaca for around €15, useful late at night when local buses have stopped. The Limassol Airport Express connects both airports with Limassol for €10 (children €5). Taxis and apps: metered taxis wait at both terminals and Bolt operates island-wide.

Quick answers

Getting around FAQ

How much is a bus ticket in Cyprus?
€2 for an urban single in Limassol, Paphos and the Ayia Napa area (€3 after 21:00), €2.70 cash in Nicosia and Larnaca, or €2 there with a Motion card. Day passes are €6 to €6.50 where offered, and intercity coaches cost €4 to €10 depending on distance.

How much is the bus to the airport?
The same as any city bus, there is no airport supplement: €2.70 cash (€2 by card) on Larnaca’s route 425, a flat €2 on Paphos’s 612 and 613. Direct shuttles cost more: Kapnos runs Larnaca Airport to Nicosia for €9, Paphos Airport to Nicosia or Larnaca around €15, and the Limassol Airport Express is €10 from either airport.

Do buses run on Sundays?
Yes, on a reduced timetable. Main city routes and intercity coaches run every day, rural and school routes may not. The tables above always show what is running today.

What is the Motion Bus Card?
The reloadable smart card that works on every network. Buy it at bus stations, top up on board, and load 7, 30 or 365-day season tickets for the best value.

Is there Uber in Cyprus?
No Uber, but Bolt works in all the main towns and both airports. Village taxis are unmetered, agree the price first.

Should I just hire a car?
For city breaks and the coastal strips, buses genuinely cover it. For Troodos villages, the Akamas and beach-hopping on your own clock, hire a car and remember Cyprus drives on the left. Our cost of living guide covers fuel and running costs.
