Airport Transportation in Paphos

Pre-booked private transportation takes you directly from Paphos International Airport to your hotel, resort or vacation rental.

After immigration, baggage claim and customs, continue outside the terminal to the meeting area named in your confirmation. Your vehicle is reserved only for the passengers on your reservation: unlike a shared shuttle, it makes no extra hotel stops for other travelers, and the price is per vehicle, not per person.

Our airport transportation in Paphos takes you from PFO to hotels and apartments in Kato Paphos and around the harbor, the town center, Coral Bay and Peyia, the Aphrodite Hills resort, and villas from the hill villages to Polis and Latchi on the Akamas peninsula.

Paphos Airport Transfers

Paphos airport transfers start in the arrivals hall of the single terminal, where your driver waits with a name sign after passport control, baggage claim and customs. We track your flight, so the pickup follows your real landing time, and the price for your vehicle is fixed before you fly. You choose the vehicle for your party, from a sedan for two to a van for a family or group with luggage.

Each Paphos airport transfer goes door to door to your hotel, apartment or villa in Kato Paphos, Coral Bay, Peyia, Aphrodite Hills, Polis or Latchi. Going on to Limassol, Larnaca, Nicosia, Ayia Napa or the Troodos mountains? Enter your address in the booking form to see whether a transfer is offered for that route before you pay.

Paphos Airport Shuttle

Our Paphos airport shuttle is a private van for your party only, not a shared coach that stops at other hotels along the coast. It leaves as soon as you have your bags, with room for suitcases, strollers and golf clubs, and suits families, groups and travelers staying in villas.

Landing at Paphos Airport

Paphos International Airport (PFO), also spelled Pafos, sits on the coast southeast of Paphos and is run by Hermes Airports. All flights use one passenger terminal, opened in 2008, so there is no terminal to choose.

Cyprus is in the EU but not in the Schengen area, so every arriving passenger waits in line at passport control, including those from Schengen countries. After baggage claim you walk through customs into the arrivals hall, where car rental desks, ATMs and currency exchange are close by and pre-booked drivers meet passengers. Lines can be long when several UK flights land together on summer afternoons.

Cyprus is on Eastern European Time (UTC+2) and switches to UTC+3 for daylight saving time from late March to late October. It uses the euro.

Entry requirements and local notes

Not in Schengen. Cyprus is in the European Union but outside the Schengen area, so you show your passport, or an EU national ID card, on arrival even from a Schengen country. Check the visa rules for your nationality before you fly.

No EES in Cyprus. The EU Entry/Exit System used at Schengen borders does not operate in Cyprus, and non-EU passports are still stamped on arrival and departure.

Driving on the left. Traffic in Cyprus drives on the left and cars are right-hand drive, so look right first when you cross the road.

Euro and UK-style plugs. Cyprus uses the euro, and cards are widely accepted. Sockets are three-pin Type G, the same as the UK.

Paphos Airport Transportation FAQs

Where will my driver meet me at Paphos Airport?

In the arrivals hall of the single terminal, holding a sign with your name, after passport control, baggage claim and customs.

How far is Paphos Airport from Paphos and Coral Bay?

Paphos Airport is about 15 km (9 miles) southeast of central Paphos, around 20 to 25 minutes to Kato Paphos or the town center. Coral Bay is about 30 km (19 miles) away, usually 30 to 40 minutes, and Polis about 50 km (31 miles), around an hour.

Can you take me to Kato Paphos and the harbor?

Yes. We drive to hotels and apartments in Kato Paphos, along Poseidonos Avenue and around the harbor, and to the town center.

Can you take me to Coral Bay or Peyia?

Yes. We drive to hotels, apartments and villas in Coral Bay, Peyia and the coast north of Paphos.

Can you take me to Polis or Latchi?

Yes. We drive to Polis Chrysochous, Latchi and the villages of the Akamas peninsula, door to door to your hotel or villa.

Can you take me to Aphrodite Hills?

Yes. We drive to the Aphrodite Hills resort near Kouklia and to the villas around it.

Can you take me to Limassol, Larnaca or Ayia Napa?

Limassol, Larnaca and Ayia Napa are farther east along the south coast. Enter your address in the booking form to see whether a transfer is offered for that route before you pay; if it is not, contact us before you fly.

How many terminals does Paphos Airport have?

One. Every flight uses the same passenger terminal, so your driver meets you in its arrivals hall whichever airline you fly.

Do you drive to villas and vacation rentals around Paphos?

Yes. Give the full address, the villa name and a map pin if you have one, because many villas in the hill villages have no street number. Your driver takes you to the door or the nearest point a car can reach.

Can I book a pickup for a late-night or early-morning flight?

Yes. Book with your flight number and arrival time, and the booking form shows the vehicles available for that pickup before you pay.

Should I buy transportation from people offering rides inside Paphos Airport?

There is no need. Booking ahead gives you a confirmed vehicle and a meeting point before you land. If someone approaches you in arrivals, check the company name against your confirmation before getting in.

What happens if my flight is delayed or canceled?

We monitor the flight on your reservation, so your driver waits for the actual landing. If your flight number, date or airline changes, or your flight is canceled, tell customer service so the pickup can be moved.

Can I book a ride back to Paphos Airport?

Yes. Book a one-way departure or a round trip from your hotel, apartment or villa, and give your flight number and departure time, so the pickup is set for check-in, security and passport control.

What do I need to enter Cyprus at Paphos Airport?

Cyprus is in the EU but not in the Schengen area, so every passenger goes through passport control; EU citizens can use a national ID card. The EU Entry/Exit System does not operate in Cyprus, and non-EU passports are still stamped. Check the visa rules for your nationality before you fly.

Is Airport Transportation the same as Paphos International Airport?
