Before you book
- Compare the deposit, fuel policy and insurance excess, not just the daily price.
- A small car is easier on Akamas and village roads.
- Gravel tracks to the Blue Lagoon usually void rental insurance — check the terms.
- Photograph the car at pickup and keep the fuel receipt at return.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a car in Paphos?
Not for Kato Paphos, the harbour or Coral Bay — buses 611, 612, 615 and 618 cover them often. A car helps for Akamas, Polis, Troodos and wine villages.
Are car hire desks inside Paphos Airport?
Some suppliers have desks in arrivals; others meet you or run a short shuttle. The pickup type is shown on each offer.
Can I drive to the Blue Lagoon in a rental car?
The final track is unpaved and most rental agreements exclude it. The boat from Latchi is the easier option.
