Cyprus is considered one of the most beautiful and popular places to relax in Europe. Thanks to its vibrant nature, architectural monuments and affordable prices. To relax comfortably and be able to move around the island freely, a car is the best solution.

The advantage of a rented car is that you do not spend money on transport and can comfortably travel wherever your heart desires. And in order not to waste time searching for a car on the spot, you can make a deal online. Renting a car at Larnaca Airport on the roscar.cy website is convenient, profitable and very simple.

What you need to rent a car in Larnaca Airport

When making a car rental agreement on the website, the price will be lower than if you take the car on the spot. It is also possible to provide additional services, such as providing additional equipment, maintenance during non-working or holiday hours. To conclude a car rental agreement on the website on the Internet, you only need a tourist voucher. Rental car insurance will be mandatory - it is beneficial for both the lessor and the lessee to avoid misunderstandings.

Usually there are two types of insurance: standard (covers expenses in the event of an accident or theft) and additional (insurance that covers the deductible in full or in part). In local rental companies, the cost of renting is much higher. If you decide to look for a car on the spot, here is what you will need:

a driver's license with the name and surname in Latin letters;
a passport confirming the identity of the lessee;
a credit card with a certain amount or cash.

Car rental prices depend on:

the make and model of the selected car;
type of engine;
class of car;
condition of the car;
holiday season.

In Cyprus, traffic is on the left, fines for violating traffic rules are high, and their observance is strictly monitored.

What you need to pay attention to before renting a car in Cyprus:

Driver's age - must be at least 25 years, but not older than 70 years.
Driving experience - at least 3 years.
Observance of speed limits on different sections of the road - in a settlement - 50 km/h, outside a settlement - 80 km/h and on motorways - 100 km/h. Minimum speed on a motorway - 65 km/h.
Parking features - the car must be located only in the direction of traffic, and this is mandatory at any time of the day or night.
The use of seat belts is mandatory for both front and rear seat passengers.
Telephone conversations, unless there is a special headset that allows you to use the phone hands-free, are prohibited.
It is forbidden to drive a car while intoxicated or under the influence of drugs - for this you can end up in the police station.

Gas stations work 24 hours a day along the coast and near the capital, they are equipped with automatic cash registers. In other parts of Cyprus you can only refuel from 6:00 to 18:00, from Monday to Friday. On Saturday - from 06:00 to 16:00. On Sundays and holidays, some gas stations do not work at all. The price of gasoline in Cyprus depends on the brand, as in all countries of the world.
