Larnaca Taxi

As there are no trains and only an infrequent bus service in Larnaca, taking a taxi is by far the most convenient and reliable option. Taking a Larnaca taxi will not only save you waiting time, but it’s the most comfortable and safe way to explore the city and popular nearby areas like Ayia Napa. Cyprus taxis calculate their fares using a taximeter, so don’t expect to find many journeys with set-rate fees.

Cost of a Larnaca Taxi

Taxis in Larnaca don’t have set rate fees for their taxis. Instead, your journey will be calculated using a taximeter based on distance. Fares for Cyprus taxis are regulated, so you can expect to pay a base fare and then a set fee for each km you travel.

Bear in mind that there will be extra fees for travelling late at night (20:30 to 06:30), on the weekend, during major holidays, excess luggage over 10kg and having a driver wait for 1 hour (€20).

Larnaca Taxi Tips

  1. Some taxi drivers in Cyprus don't speak English, so it’s worth writing down your hotel’s address or your destination’s address to avoid confusion.
  2. Make sure your driver resets the taximeter to €3 before you begin your journey.
  3. Taxis in Larnaca don’t have the POS system needed to take credit card payments so be sure to carry cash.
  4. Make sure you have change smaller than €20 with you as Ayia Napa taxi drivers don’t often have change for larger notes.
  5. If you feel your driver is taking the wrong route, be sure to check on GoogleMaps and make your driver aware.
