The drive takes 15-20 minutes. Your options are public bus, taxi, or pre-booked transfer. Most visitors to western Cyprus resorts (Paphos, Coral Bay, Polis) fly into PFO. If you are heading to Limassol or further east, expect a longer journey. ### Your transport options **Public bus (612 and 613):** EUR 1.50 per person to Paphos town. Runs during the day roughly every 30-60 minutes. The journey takes 20-30 minutes. Not practical with heavy luggage or late at night. **Taxis:** Available outside arrivals. Journeys to and from Cyprus airports are not metered — the Minister of Transport sets a fixed fare for each destination area, and it includes VAT and luggage. To Paphos town and Kato Paphos, as far as the Tombs of the Kings, the fixed fare is EUR 20 by day (06:00-20:30) and EUR 25 at night (20:30-06:00) for up to four passengers; a five- or six-seater is EUR 30 by day and EUR 35 at night (Cyprus Official Gazette, K.D.P. 79/2021, in force since 1 March 2021). The table is revised from time to time, so check the current one before you travel. **Pre-booked transfers:** EUR 25-45 to Paphos area hotels. The driver meets you at arrivals. Fixed price, no negotiation. Especially useful for resort hotels that are not on the bus route. ### Key distances from Paphos Airport - **Paphos town center:** 13 km, 15-20 minutes - **Coral Bay:** 25 km, 25-30 minutes - **Polis Chrysochous:** 55 km, 50-60 minutes - **Limassol:** 65 km, 50-60 minutes - **Larnaca:** 135 km, 90-100 minutes - **Ayia Napa:** 175 km, 2 hours ### Money and payment Cyprus uses the Euro.

The main challenge is reaching resort hotels that are spread across western Cyprus and not served by public transport. For anything beyond Paphos town, a transfer or taxi is the practical choice. ## Frequently Asked Questions **Q: How much is a taxi from Paphos Airport to Paphos town?** Airport taxi fares in Cyprus are fixed by the Minister of Transport rather than metered. To Paphos town and Kato Paphos (up to the Tombs of the Kings) the fare is EUR 20 by day and EUR 25 at night for up to four passengers. To Coral Bay it is EUR 35 by day and EUR 40 at night (Cyprus Official Gazette, K.D.P. 79/2021, in force since 1 March 2021). The fares include VAT and luggage and also apply on public holidays. **Q: Is there a bus from Paphos Airport?** Yes, bus routes 612 and 613 connect the airport to Paphos town for EUR 1.50. They run every 30-60 minutes during the day but stop in the evening. **Q: How far is Paphos Airport from Limassol?** Paphos Airport is about 65 km from Limassol, roughly 50-60 minutes by car. A pre-booked transfer costs EUR 60-90. There is no direct public transport from the airport to Limassol. ## Arriving at Paphos Airport late at night **URL:** https://www.airporttransferportal.com/airport-guides/pfo/late-night Paphos Airport handles many charter and budget flights that arrive in the late evening, especially during summer. Here is what to expect. ## What stops running Public buses (routes 612/613) stop in the evening, typically before 9 PM in winter and around 11 PM in summer. If your flight lands after 8 PM, do not count on the bus. ## What still works **Taxis** are available at the rank after evening flights. However, if multiple flights land close together, the queue can be significant and taxis run out quickly. You may wait 15-30 minutes. **Pre-booked transfers** are the most reliable option. The driver is assigned to your flight and waits regardless of delays. For a resort hotel that is difficult to find in the dark, having a driver who knows the location is valuable. ## The drive at night Cyprus roads are generally good and well-maintained. The drive to Paphos town is straightforward on the main road. However, some resort hotels are in less obvious locations — dark side roads, gated compounds, unmarked turns. Having a driver who knows the area or a working GPS makes a difference. The drive to Limassol at night is fast (50-60 min on clear motorway). To Coral Bay or Polis, the roads are darker but manageable. ## Practical tips - Pre-book your transfer if arriving after 8 PM, especially for destinations beyond Paphos town - Have your hotel's exact address and phone number ready - The airport has ATMs if you need cash for a taxi - Cyprus is very safe at night — security is not a concern **Q: Are taxis available at Paphos Airport at night?** Yes, taxis wait at the rank after evening flights. However, availability can be limited if multiple flights land together. You may wait 15-30 minutes. A pre-booked transfer is more reliable for late arrivals. **Q: Does the bus run from Paphos Airport at night?** No, public buses stop before 9 PM in winter and around 11 PM in summer. If your flight lands in the evening, a taxi or pre-booked transfer is your only option. **Q: Is Paphos Airport safe at night?** Yes, Paphos Airport and Cyprus in general are very safe at night. The airport is well-lit and secure. The main challenge is transport availability, not safety. ## Paphos Airport: Taxi vs Pre-booked Transfer **URL:** https://www.airporttransferportal.com/airport-guides/pfo/taxi-vs-transfer The taxi vs transfer decision at Paphos Airport depends largely on where you are going and when you arrive. ## Taxis at Paphos Airport **Cost:** a fixed EUR 20 by day (06:00-20:30) and EUR 25 at night (20:30-06:00) to Paphos town and Kato Paphos, for up to four passengers (Cyprus Official Gazette, K.D.P. 79/2021, in force since 1 March 2021). Airport taxi journeys in Cyprus are not metered. The Minister of Transport sets a fixed fare for each destination area, VAT and luggage included, and the same fare applies on public holidays. That makes the price transparent before you get in. Taxis queue at the rank outside arrivals and the wait is usually short. The table is revised from time to time, so check the current one before you travel. For Paphos town and nearby hotels, a taxi is straightforward and fairly priced. ## Pre-booked transfers **Cost:** EUR 25-45 to Paphos area. The driver meets you at arrivals. The price is confirmed at booking with no surprises. The premium over the fixed taxi fare for Paphos town is small, but the value increases for longer distances. ## When a taxi makes sense - You are staying in Paphos town or Kato Paphos - You arrive during the day when taxis are plentiful - You are traveling light - You are comfortable with a straightforward taxi experience ## When to pre-book - You are heading to Coral Bay, Polis, Limassol, or further - You arrive late at night when fewer taxis are available - You are traveling with family, children, or heavy luggage - You want a larger vehicle (minivan) - You want a child car seat ## The Limassol question Many visitors fly into Paphos but stay in Limassol (65 km away). The taxi fare for this run is not open-ended: it is fixed at EUR 60 by day and EUR 70 at night for up to four passengers, or EUR 80 and EUR 90 for a five- or six-seater, VAT and luggage included (Cyprus Official Gazette, K.D.P. 79/2021, in force since 1 March 2021). A pre-booked transfer at EUR 60-90 is priced against that, and adds a driver who tracks your flight and waits for you. Either way, there is no public transport on this route. **Q: Are Paphos Airport taxis expensive?** No. Airport taxi fares in Cyprus are fixed by the Minister of Transport, not metered: EUR 20 by day and EUR 25 at night to Paphos town centre for up to four passengers, VAT and luggage included (Cyprus Official Gazette, K.D.P. 79/2021, in force since 1 March 2021). It is still worth confirming the fare against the published table before starting. **Q: Should I pre-book a transfer from Paphos Airport?** For Paphos town, a taxi is fine. For Coral Bay, Polis, Limassol, or any destination beyond Paphos, pre-booking is recommended for fixed pricing and guaranteed availability, especially for late arrivals. **Q: How much is a transfer from Paphos Airport to Limassol?** A pre-booked transfer from Paphos Airport to Limassol costs EUR 60-90 for a sedan. The 65 km drive takes 50-60 minutes. This is the recommended option as there is no public transport for this route. ## Paphos Airport with family and kids **URL:** https://www.airporttransferportal.com/airport-guides/pfo/family-and-kids Paphos Airport is compact and manageable with children. The terminal is small, walks are short, and Cyprus is a family-friendly destination. But getting from the airport to your hotel with kids has some specific considerations. ## Child car seats Cyprus law requires child car seats for children under 150 cm. However, taxis at Paphos Airport rarely carry them. This creates a gap between the law and the practical reality. Your options: 1. **Pre-book a transfer with a child seat** — specify age and weight when booking. Reputable transfer companies provide appropriate seats. 2. **Bring your own travel car seat** — gives you control over the equipment for the whole trip, useful if you are renting a car later. 3. **Request one when booking a taxi** — some taxi companies can provide a child seat if asked in advance, but this is not guaranteed. ## Transport options for families **Best: Pre-booked transfer** — child seat available, driver waiting, air-conditioned vehicle, fixed price. The clear winner for families, especially for longer rides to Coral Bay, Polis, or Limassol. **Acceptable: Taxi** — works for short rides to Paphos town if children do not need car seats. Taxis are air-conditioned and the ride is short. **Difficult: Public bus** — narrow aisles, limited luggage space, no guarantee of seats during busy times. Strollers are a challenge. ## Inside the airport The terminal has basic family facilities. Baby changing is available. The walk from the gate to arrivals is short. A small shop sells drinks and snacks. ## Tips for families - Cyprus is hot in summer. Have water ready and get into an air-conditioned vehicle quickly after arriving. - If heading to a resort, your transfer company can usually coordinate with the hotel for late check-ins. - Pack sunscreen in your hand luggage — you will need it from the moment you step outside. **Q: Do Paphos Airport taxis have child car seats?** Most taxis at Paphos Airport do not carry child car seats. Cyprus law requires them for children under 150 cm, but enforcement in taxis is lax. Pre-book a transfer with a child seat or bring your own travel seat. **Q: What is the best transport from Paphos Airport with kids?** A pre-booked transfer is the best option for families. You can request child seats, the vehicle is air-conditioned, the driver waits at arrivals, and the price is fixed. Especially important for longer rides to Coral Bay or Limassol. **Q: Is the bus from Paphos Airport suitable for families?** Not really. The bus has narrow aisles and limited luggage space. Managing strollers, car seats, and suitcases on a public bus is difficult. A taxi or transfer is much easier for families. ## Cost of getting from Paphos Airport to your destination **URL:** https://www.airporttransferportal.com/airport-guides/pfo/cost-to-city Paphos Airport serves a wide area of western and southern Cyprus. Costs vary significantly depending on where you are heading. ## By transport type **Public bus (612/613):** EUR 1.50 per person to Paphos town. Daytime only, every 30-60 minutes.
