Vacations in Cyprus

Why should you book a holiday package to Cyprus?

Cyprus is an island where it's easy to have fun. From snorkeling at Cape Greco and jeep tours of the Troodos Mountains to visiting pottery workshops and tasting local vintages in Larnaca, there's so much to do on this compact Mediterranean island.

Pack in all of the activities you want to experience by booking Cyprus holiday deals. By bundling together flights, hotels and car hire, you can cut the cost of the basics, leaving money to spare to really enjoy your Cyprus holiday.

When should you book a holiday package to Cyprus?

You can save money on hotel and vehicle hire rates by traveling in Cyprus' shoulder seasons. From March to June the weather will warm up but won't reach summer's scorching peaks. The warm waters in September and October make those months appealing, too.
