First time to Cyprus and need help

Postby FooLish » Sun Mar 09, 2008 8:32 am

Hello All ..
I am going to Cyprus in july, and this is my first time there so i have few questions:
1- How many days should i spend in Larnaca ?
(few told me that there isnt much int it so no need to spend more than 2 days)
2- I intend to go to Limassol as well, my friends suggested going to Aya Napa or Paphos, which is better and nicer to go Aya Napa or Paphos ?
3- How far is Larnaca away from Limassol, Paphos & Aya Napa (By time not kilometers)?
4- I want names for good hotels in Larnaca
5- What do you think about the Crystal Springs in Larnaca and Cynthiana Beach Hotel in Paphos?
6- If i will go to (Limassol & Paphos), where should i go first after Larnaca, Paphos or Limassol ?
7- How far is Paphos from Larnaca airport ?
8- Where should i go in Larnaca & Limassol (advise please)

Thanks a lot for the help.

Buy a Lonely Planet Cyprus book if you can. Or a Top 10 Cyprus Eyewitness Travel Guide. Those are your best bets for getting good answers to your questions.

Do you prefer shops to trees?

The Latchi-Polis-Pomos route has some of the best beaches, water sports and restaurants and with good nature trails and easy access to the Paphos State Forest to get away from the heat.

But I have found that things are almost twice as expensive as in other parts of the island .... But that should not be a problem if you are from Kuwaitt :D

Bring some oil with you and you wont have any problem. :lol:

Staying in larnaca you can travel and visit other cities like Limassol , Ayia Napa , Nicosia and Paphos , in half or 1 hour drive with a car.

Believe me, being a Kuwaiti does not mean that we all have Petrol in our houses or rich !

Well I will be staying in Larnaca for 3 days maybe then i will go and stay in Limassol
1- How much time is it from Limassol to Aya Napa, Nicosia and Paphos ?
Will I have to stay in hotels in these places or one day visit is enough?

2- If I want to go to somewhere else than Limassol, where should I go Aya Napa or Paphos ?

3- How my way should be?
Larnaca -> Limassol -> Paphos or Larnaca -> Ppahos -> Limassol ?

4- What is your recommendations for good hotels in Larnaca ?
(How about the hotels in mentioned above?)

5- Is it true that i shouldnt stay in Larnaca for more than 2 days ?

6- Where to go in my visit ?
(Musems, history, mountains, please mention)

I need answers

:(

A map would save you asking silly questions… we could then devote our time to more important matters like things you must see and do…
