I have landed many times there and crossed over to the south with the police checking it. You get a feeling they would like to lock you up, but threre is fuck all they can do about it. You are free to land anywhere in Cyprus you like. You will have no problem what so ever. I suggest you book yourself to a nice hotel and enjoy the better delights of the TRNC before you go down south and get fleeced by the ungreatful bunch.
Enjoy your stay in Cyprus my friend and come back to the forum and tell us your experience of both sides of the devide.
Dear friend,
Thank you for your suggestions. I will absolutely tour the TRNC after I have stayed few days in Larnaca.
I was just wondering because I arrive late evening and propably I should take take taxi to the bprder crossing and then walk through.
I did research that there is buses leaving from Filoxenia (Cyprus Hotel and Catering Institute) to the Larnaca
0:00 and 0215 KAPNOS BUSES - Tel.: 77 77 14 77
Do you think that two hours is enought for me to get to the bus stop / other side of the green line? Does the border crossing usually take for long time?
What border crossing should I ask the cab driver to take me?
Thank you so much for everyones help.
Lokmaci is the best one. It is about 45 minutes to one hour from the airport. You walk across in 10 minutes. 2 hours is plenty of time to get to the bus stop. There are plenty of taxis outside Ercan airport. I can't believe that at this day and age you are not allowed to take a Taxi from the airport and go to your destination where ever it may be both north and south. We live in hope that there will be no border soon.
I am not sure about the bus operation times. May be a night u can stay in Saray Hotel which is so close the Lokmaci check point and next morning u can walk across in 10 munites as YFred says. ıt will be much better with my opinion. Take a taxi from airport to Saray Hotel and have a nice holiady.
here is the link for Saray Hotel
