A taxi LCA → Ayia Napa runs €55-€65 fixed price. Pre-booked shared shuttles from €12 per seat for groups.
Taxi and hire car prices are rough guides, for comparison.
What the ride is actually like.
Joins the A3 motorway out of the airport, hugs the southeast coast past Pyla and Xylofagou, then drops into Ayia Napa from the back of town. Around an hour off-peak; July weekends slow the last ten minutes.
