Our best Cyprus tips

Our Guide to Cyprus

  1. Flair

    A fascinating mix of Greek and Turkish culture, wrapped in laid-back Mediterranean atmosphere.

  2. Travel season

    Spring and fall are ideal if you want to hike and explore — summer is perfect for a pure beach holiday.

  3. Travel Duration

    To really see the whole island, plan for ten to fourteen days.

  4. Currency

    The euro is used across the entire island — both the south and the north (though the north also accepts Turkish lira).

  5. Tip

    Around ten percent is the norm at restaurants — it's genuinely appreciated, so don't skip it.

  6. Transport

    Rent a car. Seriously — public transport won't get you to the mountain villages or remote monasteries.
