| Useful Tips |
| Scenic drives - by Fatima from Durban |
| Driving from Larnaca the main road was good, the villages of Kato Lefkara and Pano Lefkara are quite picturesque with lemon, fig, and olive trees growing on the hills. The Troodos Mountains are beautiful and the salt lake with all those flamingo was quite a sight to see. |

| At the beginning of the season the police are not to bad but by the end of the summer they are getting p***ed off with the people on their rental mopeds without helmits, speeding etc cos so many keep having accidents. So just be carefull in late summer. |

| We used the local bus & also hired a car for a week, which you really need to do to explore the Troodos Mountains properly. It's easy to hire cars and bikes all over the country.

| The best way to see Cyprus is by car, no doubt about it, but there are a few things one should know before hand. For instance, they use right-hand-drive vehicles and drive on the left side of the road . Very confusing at first. Make sure you obey the rules, the cops like to hand out fines here, trust me.... |
| Safety - by Philip from London |
| All Cypriot drivers treat traffic lights just as an indication - red means stop if you feel like it! So watch out at the big junctions. |

This Mediterranean island has incredible diversity as a result of almost constant invasion throughout its history. Today this diversity has developed to such an extent that Cyprus is essentially two separate countries. In the south of the Island there is the Greek influenced Republic, where as North Cyprus has a strong Turkish influence.
The main draw of Cyprus are the fantastic beach resorts, which attract many tourists every year. Away from the major resorts there is some incredible culture and a range terrain and countryside. |
