Protaras, perhaps, is one of the best beach regions on the island of Cyprus. The easiest way to get here is to fly first to the airport located in Larnaca, from there, to get Protaras in any way. It is quite easy to do for a taxi, paying from 54 euros, then on the transfer - from 13 euros, or by bus from 9 euros.
The easiest thing is, of course, first flying on the plane, next to the Moscow-Larnaca route. Why is the easiest way to Moscow? Yes, because the flights to Cyprus fly there at once from 3 airports from Vnukovo, from Domodedovo and Sheremetyevo. Yes, and flight schedules from there are about times more than from other regions of the country.
After arrival in Larnaca, the easiest way to rent a car and get to the protaras right on the car. Thus, you will save on the shuttle, and you will have freedom of movement, as well as the mass of positive emotions from what you will be driving. The car is best rented in advance, so that immediately after arrival of the aircraft you have already met at the airport.
Further, for example, getting from airport by taxi. This option is incredibly comfortable and requires a minimum of televitations on your part. At taxi drivers in the first place there will always be the safety of passengers and of course punctuality, because they can not be late for customers. You can order a taxi via the Internet, or through the dispatcher by phone. You can, of course, catch the car and in the old manner - coming out of the airport and caught free taxi.
But it will be of course a bit more expensive. The easiest way to place an order using the on-line booking system, and in this case you will not need to know a Greek or even English language. You will be enough in Russian just to make an order and pay. In this case, you will definitely serve the car on time. The driver meets you at the airport and you will not even have to explain to him, at what address you will need to go.
Also a good option is the transfer. In general, Cyprus has several transport companies that provide tourists various transfers ranging from buses and up to limousines. You will also need to leave the order in advance on the site, well, the transport company you have already chosen reserves you in transport.
Here the most remarkable lies in the fact that even if you buy one ticket, and all other places in the car remain free, you will still be lucky anyway even alone. At the same time, the shipping price remains unchanged. It is also very nice that you will be brought directly to the hotel, and they will not land somewhere at the nearest stop.
The next option is the Shuttle bus. The fact is that for quite a long time from Larnaca Airport to get to Protaras directly by bus, it was impossible at all. And fortunately, finally one transport company opened a route with which tourists get direct from the airport to Protaras.
To do this, you have no leaving the airport to approach the booth with the name "Airport Shuttle" and there will have to buy a ticket to Protaras. For an adult, the cost of one trip is 9 euros, and for a child 5 euros.
You can also travel on the old way and on buses, but it is necessary to make transplants. This option is only suitable if you are driving and without suitcases. You will need to get out of the airport to the public transport stop, which is on the right side. There you need to get up on the escalator and climb upstairs, then go out there. Then turn left and there you will see the stop where you will need to sit on a 425 bus and minutes after 10 minutes you will be on the FinoDes embankment, which is located in Larnaca.
Just be sure to specify by the driver - in which direction it goes not to go back to the airport. Next, you will need to take a bus next to Ayia NAPU and he will bring you to the square, which is located next to the monastery. Everyone knows this central place in the city and there in principle it is difficult to get lost. And then then you are already transplanted by a bus at number 101, which will bring you to Protaras.
However, this option implies a transplant and a trip at once on three buses - on two urban and on one long-distance. Do not forget that you still have to expect these buses. However, taking into account the fact that a direct bus appeared in Protaras, then such transplants and such a bunch of television conditions are already in principle. But still it is worth considering that the shuttle in Protaras stops only near the tourist office and near the McDonald's restaurant. And then you somehow have to get to your hotel or the apartments yourself.
As a rule, a trip to Protaras on a rented car is the most convenient option. Many tourists do this, especially if they are confident in advance that the car will take a car in Cyprus. It is best to order a car of course via the Internet. Well, then everything is simple - on arrival, the rolling car awaits you in the parking lot at the airport and from there you will go on your wheels.
