Question 1

I want to see St Hilarion Castle, where should I fly to?

Accepted Answer

St Hilarion Castle is between Nicosia and Kyrenia. To get there, you should fly to Larnaca Airport, where you can a rent a car to drive across the border and on to St Hilarion Castle. You can find helpful information on KAYAK under the "Car Rental" tab. If you rent a car, you have to purchase additional insurance that covers travel north of the border and remember to check with the rental company whether you are allowed to drive the car to the north. There is no public transport that crosses the border and cab drivers from the south may not be willing to take you across the border.

Question 2

I only want to visit Northern Cyprus, which airport should I fly to?

Accepted Answer

You can fly to Ercan Airport, but upon arrival, you should request that the entry stamp be on a separate sheet of paper. Keep the paper until you exit Northern Cyprus and the exit stamp should be placed there too. This is to prevent problems with immigration should you try to enter Cyprus via the south in the future. Direct flights to Northern Cyprus all come from Turkey, so you may find it most convenient to book a connecting flight through Istanbul.

Question 3

Do I need to carry local currencies when travelling to Cyprus?

Accepted Answer

It may be worth exchanging euros before your trip, as it can be more expensive to exchange money at the bureau de change counters in the airport. However, you should not exchange all your pounds for euros if you are going to Northern Cyprus, as they mainly use Turkish lira and you would lose more on the exchange rate if you change from sterling to euro to lira.

Question 4
