Top tips for renting a car in Paphos
- When driving in cheap car rentals in Paphos, your car is likely to have a red license registration plate, which are reserved for rented tourist cars. When given the option between Paphos car rentals with or without a red license registration, choose one with a red registration plate as local drivers will be aware that you are a tourist and will keep their distance and drive more carefully around you in case you aren’t yet caught up on routes or traffic rules in the city. Be sure to extend the same courtesy to other tourists in rental cars to protect both yourself and them.
- If you’re visiting with children and want to use cheap car rentals in Paphos, you will have to adhere strictly to the child passenger safety rules in Cyprus. It is mandatory for all children under 5yrs to ride in the back seat of the vehicle and be strapped securely into an approved car seat, preferably an R44/R129 car seat. Children are only allowed to travel in the front seat if secured in a rear-facing child seat and with the airbag deactivated. Check with your car rental company to confirm whether they provide car seats. If unavailable, obtain a car seat from any of the several child car seat rental companies in Paphos.
- If you decide to use cheap car rentals in Paphos , which is on the south coast of Cyprus, you are not legally or contractually permitted to drive to North Cyprus. It may be an expensive error because your auto insurance is invalid there, and you will be required to purchase extra insurance upon arrival at the border. Additionally, in the event of an accident, you will bear the financial burden of having to have the car transferred back south.
- Rich in archaeological heritage and longstanding Mediterranean culture, Paphos is surrounded by medieval secrets and picturesque beauty. Renting a car will provide you with the best opportunity to see the incredible coastline that wraps around Paphos, helping distinguish the town and stunning nearby attractions such as the Edro Shipwreck. A rental car will also give you the chance to head inland and explore the Paphos Forest and Mount Olympus, which are only a short drive to the northeast.
- Paphos International Airport is located roughly 6.5 km (4 miles) from the center of town and is the best flight destination for the western side of Cyprus. Major rental companies such as Budget, Thrifty, and Europcar are represented at Paphos International Airport, with their counters located in the arrivals section of the terminal. The other major airport on the island is Larnaca International Airport, approximately a 90-minute drive east of Paphos.
- Be aware that plenty of the roads on the island country of Cyprus are narrow and provide just enough room for two cars to pass each other. Thus it is important to remember to keep to the left of the lane as much as possible while driving (cars drive on the left in Cyprus). It is vital that you acquire an International Driver's Permit before your trip, as not carrying one while driving in Paphos will open you to the risk of hefty fines and voiding your rental conditions.
- Driving in Paphos is a peaceful experience and heavy traffic congestion is rare. There is often a rush hour the evening between 6 pm and 7 pm, as well as in the morning between 7:30 am and 8:30 am. During the peak summer months of July and August it can get seriously hot in Cyprus, which is perfect for relaxing at the beach but not so good for driving. Set off early and get to your destination by midday, leaving you to enjoy the best part of the day by the water.

Pros:
Nice vehicle although very under powered for the roads of CyprusCons:
When I inially arranged and booked the vehicle I requested a RAV 4 or an equivalent. This was due to wanting a four wheel drive vehicle to go on some of the roads that Cyprus have to offer. The vehicle we were given was only a two wheel drive which restricted our holiday enjoyment considerably. Obviously this was one of our major expenses of which I feel very let down.8.4 Very good

Car was slightly older / mustier and not as good performance as hoped. Still acceptable though - just fine rather than great. no complaint just explaining the category 4 rather than 5.3 locations in Paphos
