- Paphos resort hotels are spread across a large area. The bus only serves Paphos town — most resort hotels require a taxi or transfer.
- Limassol and beyond: No direct public transport. Pre-booked transfers are the most practical option for longer distances.
- Cyprus uses the Euro — no exchange rate confusion.
- Night arrivals: Buses stop in the evening. A taxi or transfer is your only option after dark.
