Cheap Car Hire Larnaca
A Great Car Hire Resource I Just Found

How would you prefer to get around the Island of Cyprus? Cheap car hire Larnaca is one way of doing it.

I would say car rental is most advisable due to the lack of public transport services to remote areas, where many places of interest are to be found. You wont have any bother exploring this beautiful Island either. Four lane motorways connect Nicosia with the coastal towns of Limassol, Larnaca, Paphos and Ayia Napa.


If you're thinking of exploring the Troodos, as in off the beaten track, a 4x4 jeep is essential. Anyway, there's lots of cheap car hire in Cyprus, so you won't have any problem booking one. It's just a matter of shopping around for the best price.

I mention or the title mentions cheap car hire Larnaca. However the car hire company I sourced caters for all over the Republic of Cyprus. Larnaca is the car hire company's key hub of operation and their main office is based near there.

What to expect with a car hire company?

Most online car rental companies offer an automatic online discount. Some also cater for a delivery and collection service, from/ to the airport, major towns or resort. This would be the same scenario for the local car rental company also.

Make sure fully comprehensive insurance is built in to the price. You will have to pay an insurance excess on top of this. Minimum rental is usually two days but sometimes 3 days. Get them to throw in a free road map with the deal, most car rental places should be doing this anyway. Great for pinpointing those twisty back roads.

What does the Insurance NOT cover?

Typically, most car hire companies will not cover:

  • Tyres
  • Windscreen
  • Damage made to oil sump, so no rallying on dirt tracks

Do Remember:

  • Petrol is not refundable
  • You are responsible for paying insurance excess, if there's an accident
  • Shouldn't really be used in areas under the control of the Turkish army or the Turkish Cypriots
  • Your driving license

How much will this cost?

This really varies depending on season, type of car and rental method. I prefer to use the local car hire company now (cheap car hire Larnaca), after years of using the major car hire companies. I always find you're charged that little extra with the big players. Also, I find booking a car through one of the search boxes/ middle men, more prone to error. It's not always the case, but I have turned up at the car hire desk in Larnaca airport to find out your Ford Fiesta you booked is actually an Opel Astra (and having to pay the Opel Astra prices). Or, being charged extra for something, which was not stated on the original agreement. You don't need that hassle at the start of your holiday.

So, here are 9 good reasons to use the local Car Hire Company (cheap car hire larnaca) I sourced:

  • No long queues to stand in. Just meet the representative at arrivals and go straight to your hire car
  • Quality fleet of select vehicles - No battered, high mileage cars . Get the car you paid for!
  • Airport Delivery included (surcharge some car rental firms don't tell you upfront)
  • VAT tax included
  • Full comprehensive insurance included
  • Competitive prices (with no surcharges or commissions lost through middle men) - Pay for your car online and save 4% by dealing with the end user
  • 1 additional driver - Your spouse can be dedicated driver for the night whilst you enjoy a long brandy sour
  • Covers the whole Island of Cyprus, including Paphos and Larnaca Airports. Also on hand to welcome visitors to their private villas, chosen hotel or any other destination on the island.
  • Professional, quality service - Start your holiday in a good mood!
