Taxis
If you are a tourist, first tell the taxi driver where you want to go and it is
advisable to ask for the cost before you set off, also mention the number of passengers.
With these private taxis, all you need to do is flag them down in the street or
call a local company from your apartment/villa accommodation. Taxi fares are regulated
by law. Tariff I: daytime tariff, valid from 06:01 to 20:30 Tariff II: night tariff,
valid from 20:31 to 06:00 (the per-kilometre charge is higher than Tariff I). A
supplement is payable on certain public holidays, driver waiting time costs extra
and luggage weighing more than 12Kg costs extra
Cruises
A number of short cruises sail from Cyprus with trips lasting typically between
two-to-five days on board large and comfortable ships. You can either book while
on holiday in Cyprus or through tour operators abroad who feature the cruises in
their holiday brochures. There are also many short boat trips from and to various
destinations around the island sailing from almost all marinas and fishing shelters.
