Paphos car hire

A compact sedan will best suit the narrow streets of Paphos, so you should consider renting something similar to a Suzuki Alto or Ford Fiesta. Keep in mind that manual transmission cars are far more common throughout Europe and, if you wish to rent an automatic, you will need to specify this to the hire agency and likely pay an additional charge.

Unless otherwise indicated, the speed limit in urban areas such as residential and commercial is 50 km/h (31 mph). On unmarked rural roads the maximum speed is 80 km/h (49 mph), while on motorways the speed limit is 100 km/h (62 mph). Don’t drive above the speed limit, as police regularly patrol the roads and will not let it slide just because you are a tourist.

Parking in the center of town is achievable and affordable; first look at securing an on-street parking spot close to the attractions you first want to visit. These will be metered and cost around €0.20 ($0.23 USD) per hour. Close to the Paphos Harbor there is a municipality parking area which is free, but this will likely fill up early in the morning during the peak summer vacation period.
