We are visiting Cyprus for the first time on 31st May flying to Larnaca and staying in Protaras. We have booked flights and hotel direct so need transfers from the airport. Can anyone tell me what a taxi will cost and how to go ahead booking it? Any information will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you but I was actually looking for some websites so I can arrange it over the internet. Do you know if they have one?

You don't need to arrange it over the internet. Taxis are always available there. For price you can check here: http://www.travelexpress.com.cy/taxiprivate.htm Larnaca - Protaras is 29 or 34 pounds http://www.travelexpress.com.cy/Taxipri ... stable.htm

www.grabthatcab.com

For up to 4 people and luggage the most you'll pay is CY£28, day or night. Jack the driver is an old friend of mine and very reliable.

Very easy to book online.

Rule of thumb for me in any country is, the more useful information cabbies give from the airport to the hotel the more I give.

I just round it up a bit. If it is 28 I would give 30.

I went to Paphos earlier this month.

We got taxis from the airport to our hotel and on our return we got one back to the airport, from our hotel.

We paid £17 CYP going and only £13 CYP on way back!

Look for a bus!!!

If you round it up to £30 I'm sure Jack will be very happy!
