Why Kyrenia Is the Most Popular Destination

If you're heading to Kyrenia (Girne), you've made the most popular choice — and for good reason.

Just 30 minutes from Ercan, Kyrenia is:

  • Home to one of the most photographed harbors in the Mediterranean

  • The base for day trips to Bellapais Abbey, St. Hilarion Castle, and the Five Finger Mountains

  • Packed with beachfront restaurants, boutique hotels, and resort complexes

  • Accessible but not yet overwhelmed by mass tourism


The Kyrenia transfer from Ercan is the most booked route — smooth, fast, and a genuinely pleasant introduction to the island.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to pre-book, or can I just turn up and find a transfer?

You can find taxis at the airport, but pre-booking a private transfer guarantees your price, your vehicle size, and a driver who's tracking your flight. In peak season especially, ad-hoc availability becomes unreliable.

Is it safe to cross from Larnaca to North Cyprus?

Yes. The crossing has been open since 2003 and millions of tourists make the journey annually. A licensed transfer company does this crossing every day and handles the process without fuss.

What currency is used in North Cyprus?

North Cyprus officially uses the Turkish Lira (₺). However, British Pounds, Euros, and US Dollars are widely accepted at hotels, restaurants, and tourist sites. ATMs are available in all major towns.

Can the driver accommodate baby seats or wheelchair access?

Yes — reputable transfer services can accommodate special requirements with advance notice. Mention it at the time of booking.

What if my flight is delayed?

A professional transfer provider tracks your flight in real time. If you're running two hours late, your driver will be waiting — not sitting on the meter.
