Famagusta lies just beyond the Green Line, close enough to Ayia Napa that most tours are done in a day. The classic route combines the ghost town of Varosha, the old town and the ruins of ancient Salamis; longer versions add Kyrenia or Nicosia. A guided tour handles the crossing, which is the main reason people book instead of driving themselves.

Check availability →Good to know: You cross a border, so check which ID your nationality needs and what the provider requires. Rental cars are a poor fit: contracts usually exclude the north or void the insurance there, so read yours before planning to drive. Expect a long day of about seven to eight hours.
Good to know
Beaches such as Nissi Beach, a busy nightlife scene and boat trips along the Cape Greco coast. In the bookable catalogue, Blue Lagoon cruises are by far the clearest signature experience; historic sights are mostly a day trip away.
Some do, but many depart from Protaras, roughly ten kilometres up the coast. The title often names one town while the meeting point is in the other, so read the listing and check whether hotel pickup is included.
Yes, as a guided day trip of about seven to eight hours that crosses the Green Line into the north of the island. Check which ID your nationality needs. Rental cars are a poor fit, because contracts usually exclude the north or void the insurance there.
They are possible but long, because Ayia Napa lies at the far east of the island. The Paphos and Kourion tours are listed at around ten hours. For a short stay, one mountain or Famagusta day is usually enough.
About 50 kilometres by road, roughly 45 minutes in normal traffic. Ayia Napa has no airport of its own, so most visitors arrive at Larnaca by transfer, taxi or rental car.
