Kyrenia, also known as Girne, is a popular tourist destination in North Cyprus and has a well-developed public transportation system that makes it easy to get around the city and its surroundings.
The most common mode of public transportation in Kyrenia is the dolmus, which is a shared taxi van that operates on fixed routes. Dolmuses run frequently throughout the city and are an affordable way to travel. They usually display their destinations on their front windscreen, and you can flag them down anywhere along their route. Payment is made to the driver when you get off.
The services are limited and do not go up and through villages and to tourist places, so you are better advised to hire a car to go to many of the main attractions of Cyprus. The bus routes are privately leased from the North Cyprus government. If you find a bus stop you can wait there, if not and you see one coming you can just flag it down they will stop for you.
Buses are infrequent and do not run to an absolute timetable. As a guide line they run about every 20mins to 30mins between towns and villages. More busy parts run every 10mins to 15mins and further afield around every hour. Winter services slow down around 7pm and summer time at 8pm or end after this time.
There are also local buses that run from Kyrenia to other towns and cities in North Cyprus. These buses are operated by a company called Kombos, and they run on fixed routes and schedules. You can purchase tickets at the bus station or from the driver.
In addition to these options, taxis are also widely available in Kyrenia, and they can be flagged down on the street or hired from taxi stands. Taxis are more expensive than dolmuses and buses but are a convenient option for those who want to travel quickly and comfortably.
Overall, public transportation in and around Kyrenia is affordable, convenient, and reliable, making it easy for tourists and locals alike to get around the city and explore the surrounding areas.
