Inland, and closer than the beaches

Every other destination this site covers on Cyprus is a coastal resort, and all of them are further from the airport than the capital is. Nicosia is fifty-one kilometres by the A3, the A2 and the A1; Ayia Napa is fifty-five and Protaras sixty-five. A traveller who assumes the capital must be the long haul has it the wrong way round.

A divided city, and which half a transfer reaches

Nicosia is the last divided capital in Europe. The airport is in the Republic of Cyprus and a transfer from it serves the southern side of the city; a driver takes you to an address there, not across the line. This is a fact about where a car can put you rather than a comment on anything else, and it belongs on a page about getting from an airport to an address.

One product, two reviews

Exactly one Viator product names Nicosia for this journey and it carries two reviews. Its price, 80 euros for up to four, is the least corroborated figure in this cluster: on the three coastal routes two or three operators land within about ten euros of each other, and here there is nothing to compare against. The figure is published because it is attributable to one journey and one vehicle, and it is labelled for what it is.
