About Renting a Car at Limassol Center

Limassol is Cyprus's second-largest city and economic hub, with 22 rental companies concentrated in and around the city center – the second-best selection on the island after Larnaca Airport. The city's location in the middle of the south coast makes it the perfect hub: Paphos is 70 km to the west (50 min) and Larnaca is 70 km to the east (50 min) along the motorway. Limassol Marina with its luxury restaurants and shopping malls is the city's new heart.

Limassol Castle in the old town, where Richard the Lionheart was married in 1191, is 1 km from most rental stations. Kolossi Castle, 12 km southwest of the center, and Kourion Amphitheatre, 19 km to the west, are must-see excursions by car. Troodos Mountains' highest point, Olympos (1952 m), can be reached in 55 minutes' drive north via B8.

Park at Limassol Marina and walk to the city center rental companies – parking fees are lower than in the old town. Rent a car early in the morning to fit both Kourion Amphitheatre and Kolossi Castle into the same day. Choose a rental company with an office near the port if you're arriving by cruise ship from Piraeus or Haifa.

Which is the best rental company in Limassol center? With 22 rental companies, all major international chains are represented. Compare car rental prices on hyrbilar.se to find the best deal – local Cypriot rental companies often offer 20–30% lower prices.

How do I drive from Limassol to Troodos Mountains? Take B8 north from the center towards Trimiklini and Platres. The road is well-signposted and takes approximately 55 minutes to reach Troodos center.

The roads are winding but well-paved. Can I pick up a car in Limassol and drop it off at Paphos Airport? Yes, most of the 22 rental companies offer one-way service to Paphos Airport (PFO), 75 km to the west.

A drop-off fee of 25–60 EUR typically applies.

We compare prices from all major providers at Limassol Center so you can see the total cost upfront — including insurance, fuel terms and any extras. Most bookings include free cancellation up to 48 hours before pickup, giving you flexibility if your plans change.

Picking Up a Car in Limassol — The Essentials

🚗 1) Pick the Right Terms

  • Fuel: "Full-to-full" is usually the fairest deal.
  • Extra driver: can cost extra — check before booking.
  • Automatic: often pricier and in shorter supply.
Pro tip: Cheapest rate + expensive terms = an expensive rental in disguise.

🪪 2) Bring the Right Documents

  • Driver's license (usually held for at least 1 year)
  • Passport or national ID
  • Credit card in the driver's name for the deposit
A valid license is accepted in most of Cyprus. Check if an IDP is needed.

📸 3) Drama-Free Pickup

  • Film the car from all angles + the dashboard.
  • Photograph scratches, wheels and windshield.
  • Keep your fuel receipt when returning.
