Food prices in Cyprus

First, a few words about shops and supermarkets. Hyper- and supermarkets are represented in large cities: Metro, Lidl, Papantoniou, Alfamega, Carrefour and others. In tourist places there are many shops and outlets where you can buy souvenirs, water, snacks. Here prices are higher than in supermarkets. It is more economical to buy water and beer in packs of 6 pcs. It is more profitable to take sausage and cheese in stores not in factory packaging, but to take it by weight (you can ask the seller to cut it into slices). Some types of products (cheese, eggs, bacon, yoghurts, spices, etc.) are cheaper to buy at Lidl, but there is a limited assortment. Interestingly, in supermarkets of the same chain, prices will be different depending on the location of the store. The cheapest is in non-tourist villages near large cities.

Let's summarize. How to save money in Cyprus?

Factors that will save money during the preparation and trip to Cyprus:

Preparing for the trip. It is more rational to buy tours, air tickets, insurance, book accommodation and cars on sites that display information from different companies and agencies, thereby allowing you to compare prices and conditions between them and choose the best (optimal) option. Examples of such sites are provided in each relevant section of this article.

Housing . When traveling on your own to Cyprus, it is highly advisable to book hotels and apartments in advance. Good housing at affordable prices during the high season will be quite difficult to find.

Catering . For those who plan to relax on tour packages: in hotels, take half-board meals (breakfast + dinner), because in the heat of the day you don’t really want to eat (at lunch you can be content with small snacks). For independent tourists: rent apartments or apartments at hotels with a kitchen and cook for yourself (at least partially) and / or buy takeaway food in culinary establishments.

Beaches . If you don’t want to pay 2.5 € each time for a deck chair and the same amount for a canopy over it, you can buy a mat and a small beach umbrella in the store, which will pay off in 2-3 trips to the sea. Many tourists on the beaches are placed on their towels.

Tours . Instead of excursions, rent a car and drive around the entire island. If there is no possibility / desire to rent a car, and there are three or four of you, take not group, but individual excursions. Often this is justified not only in terms of comfort and quality, but also in terms of money.

Rent a Car . It is more profitable to rent a car for a period of 3 days or more (for three days it is not much more expensive than for two). Search for a car on sites that display offers from different suppliers to compare prices and choose the best option.

Public transport . If you travel by bus two or more times a day, it is more profitable to take a pass for a day, a week or a month.

Attractions . There are more than enough free natural attractions in Cyprus. For an active visit to the ancient ruins, you can take a subscription.

Alcohol . In stores in Cyprus, branded alcohol is no more expensive than in duty-free. It makes no sense to stock up in advance in order to save on booze.

The shops . In chain stores and supermarkets, goods will cost less than in private outlets in tourist areas. This applies to both food and drinks, as well as souvenirs, beach accessories and other items. Products such as sausages and cheese are cheaper to buy not in packages, but to take them by weight (if necessary, the seller will cut them). It is more profitable to buy water, beer and other drinks in packages.

How much money to take to Cyprus?

So, how much money to take with you to Cyprus in 2019 for two:

When the tour is ready

The price of a package tour to Cyprus includes the cost of an air ticket, accommodation, transfer, insurance and meals according to the selected type. On the spot, there will be expenses for excursions, transport, souvenirs, entertainment and snacks or a full meal (if meals are not included in the tour).

  • For a week . Let's calculate: 150€ (2 excursions or car rental for 3 days and fuel) + 50€ (entertainment) + 100€ (souvenirs and hotels) + 20€ (other expenses) + 40-300€ (food and drinks) = 360-620€ .
  • For 10 days . Let's calculate: 250€ (3 excursions or car rental for 5 days and fuel) + 80€ (entertainment) + 100€ (souvenirs and hotels) + 30€ (other expenses) + 60-400€ (food and drinks) = 520-860€ .
  • For 2 week . Let's calculate: 250€ (3 excursions or car rental for 5 days and fuel) + 100€ (entertainment) + 100€ (souvenirs and hotels) + 40€ (other expenses) + 80-550€ (food and drinks) = 570-1040€ .

When traveling alone

In this situation, an air ticket and, possibly, insurance are bought in advance. Transfer and hotel will most likely be paid already on the spot, so for these cost items you need to take money with you on a trip. On the spot, there will also be expenses for food, travel, entertainment, excursions and souvenirs.

  • For a week . Let's calculate: 350€ (accommodation) + 300€ (food and drinks) + 150€ (2 excursions or car rental for 3 days and fuel) + 50€ (entertainment) + 100€ (souvenirs and hotels) + 50€ (transfer and other expenses) = 1000€ .
  • For 10 days . Let's calculate: 500€ (accommodation) + 400€ (food and drinks) + 250€ (3 excursions or car rental for 5 days and fuel) + 80€ (entertainment) + 100€ (souvenirs and hotels) + 70€ (transfer and other expenses) = 1400€ .
  • For 2 week . Let's calculate: 700€ (accommodation) + 550€ (food and drinks) + 250€ (3 excursions or car rental for 5 days and fuel) + 100€ (entertainment) + 100€ (souvenirs and hotels) + 100€ (transfer and other expenses) = 1800€ .

Figures given should not be taken literally, because the costs depend on financial capabilities, the need to save, the ability to do this and other factors of a particular person / couple / family.

From the article, you learned the approximate prices in Cyprus in 2019 for recreation, food, entertainment, transport and much more. The information provided will help you navigate the costs and calculate how much money to take with you to Cyprus for a week, two and 10 days, as well as how to save money on a trip to the island of Aphrodite.

Going on a trip to a new country, a tourist must be aware of its main features: the capital, climate, attractions, currency. The last aspect is the most important, because in any case, you will have to buy food, pay for an overnight stay, buy souvenirs and so on. If the subject of your next trip is Cyprus, we hasten to tell you what the modern currency of this area is.

We hope that the information below will be useful for tourists and will help you plan your tour budget correctly.

Main currency of Cyprus

From 1879 to December 31, 2007, monetary settlements on the territory of this country were carried out mainly in their own national currency - the Cypriot pound (despite the long-standing rejection of this money, it is rarely, however, found in the general circulation of funds). Previously, the exchange rate of this currency against the dollar was 1:2 (for 1 pound they demanded 2 dollars), the euro - 1:1.7 (for 1 pound - 1.7 euros). Changes came from January 1, 2008 - the euro became the official monetary standard of southern (Greek) Cyprus. In the circulation of the area there are banknotes in denominations from 5 to 50 euros, as well as coins, in 1 and 2 euros, euro cents, in denominations of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50.

In the northern (Turkish) part of Cyprus, the official national currency is the Turkish lira. We bring to your attention that along with these funds, settlements are made in euros, dollars, and pounds sterling. Thus, it is not necessary for a tourist, upon arrival, to exchange European currency for Turkish lira.

Bank card payments

Throughout Cyprus, in restaurants, hotels and other public institutions, you can pay with Visa and MasterCard plastic cards. If you are going to buy souvenirs, gifts or accessories, you should get cash at one of the ATMs. The negative point of such an operation is an impressive commission, which can reach 2 dollars or more, for each withdrawal.


A pleasant surprise for the citizens of Russia and Ukraine is the information that Russian and Ukrainian banks, respectively, operate on the island - Privat Bank and Promsvyazbank.

Currency exchange in Cyprus

Special points for exchanging money for local or European currency are present almost everywhere: on the streets, in hotels, restaurants, vehicles, shops, entertainment centers. At some exchange points, you will be required to have a passport. The commission for such an operation is 1-2%. You can exchange personal funds using round-the-clock ATMs. The commission is approximately 4% of the amount. It is more profitable to change money in the Turkish part of Cyprus, since the commission for operations in most points is not charged, and the points themselves work longer.


Starting planning your vacation in a new country, a tourist should first of all find out the current exchange rate. Reliable information about changes in the exchange rate in Cyprus, without leaving your home, can be found on Eurobank Cyprus - the official website of the country's national bank. Various currency converters on resources provide an approximate picture of fluctuations in the state's foreign exchange funds. Experienced travelers know that the best solution is to purchase, however, a larger amount of cash.

When exchanging money in special places, we strongly recommend that you carefully check the authenticity of banknotes. This is especially true for banknotes denominated in 100 and 200 euros. It is advisable to always have small coins with you.

How much to expect when vacationing

It is logical to plan your approximate budget before starting a trip. It is quite difficult to determine exactly how much money to take to Cyprus, for example, for 7 days. It all depends on your travel plan, excursions, entertainment, shopping. Naturally, going to an all-inclusive hotel will cut costs considerably, but even then you still need to have several hundred euros in cash. Hotels located away from the main resort areas are cheap compared to those located in close proximity to local ones. tourist routes. In order to roughly plan the budget for the upcoming vacation, we suggest focusing on the following data:

  • approximate price of lunch for two adults without alcohol - 20-30 euros, dinner - 30-40 euros;
  • fresh vegetables and fruits are relatively cheap. Citrus fruits about 1-2 euros per kilogram;
  • clean, drinking water is sold at a price of 0.5-1 euro for a 2-liter bottle;
  • alcoholic drinks: wine - from 4 euros, beer - 1-2 euros per bottle;
  • You can buy a kilogram of meat and fish in a chain supermarket at a price of 5-8 euros per kilogram.


You can save a lot by eating on your own, buying groceries in supermarkets or grocery stores. A separate cell of expenses is made up of excursions, souvenirs, trips to the theater, cinema, and so on. If you ask an experienced traveler: "how much money to take to Cyprus for 10 days?", Almost everyone will answer: "minimum - 50, maximum - 100 euros per day." Thus, it turns out that, depending on the chosen place, the abundance of rest, the price of a trip for 7-10 days ranges from 350 to 1000 euros.

It is useful for inexperienced vacationers to know that in order to save personal money, it is worth eating in restaurants and cafes remote from popular tourist places. A number of Cypriot food establishments offer their customers mouth-watering discounts and promotions.

Conditions for the return of certain funds

Having made a purchase in one store in the amount of more than 50 euros at a time, the tourist is entitled to a refund of the part of the tax included in the cost of the purchased goods. You can return part of the funds right at the airport, before flying home. To do this, present at the customs a receipt for the product, the product itself in its original packaging and the necessary completed receipts, which are required to be issued in the store where this product was purchased. If all documents are in order, you can count on a refund of 15% of the purchase amount.


What money to take to Cyprus in 2019

Before going on vacation to a new, unknown country, we advise you to exchange the available funds, rubles, hryvnias, for euros, dollars, at home. Find a worthwhile currency exchange, get the necessary amount and quickly go on vacation, travel, tour of this wonderful country.

If your travel budget is already small, in no case do not go to a foreign country only with funds on a bank card. Firstly, it is not a fact that you will be satisfied with the exchange rate available in a bank or exchanger. Secondly, such services charge an impressive commission.

The worst option is to come to Cyprus with cash rubles or hryvnias. These currencies are not very popular in the country, so you will be offered a bad exchange rate.

One of the most pressing issues for any tourist is the question of money. Every time before a trip, we ask ourselves the question: “How much money should I take with me? How much do groceries cost there? How much does it cost to rent a car? How much is a hotel room?- etc. Therefore, for those who are going to go to Cyprus, we have created this article.

Here we will talk about the prices of products in Cyprus, which will help answer the question: "How much money should I take with me to Cyprus?"

It is worth noting an important point. The fact is that in any resort region of Cyprus: be it Paphos, be it Larnaca, be it Limassol, be it Ayia Napa, prices will always differ! Near hotels and large elite restaurants, prices are usually always inflated. If you want to save money, it is enough to move a little further from the center. In local villages, for the same money that you spend in an expensive restaurant, you can feed not two, but six people to the full!

Below are the prices for different food products: fruits, meat, vegetables and dairy products.

In the case of buying a ticket, its price will also include payment for the flight and payment for the hotel room, transfer to the hotel is also included in this amount. You can organize your vacation in Cyprus on your own, in which case it is better to buy tickets in advance, this measure will help save a little. The amount of 50 euros is enough to pay for a modest hotel room and travel to public transport, as well as to buy some groceries at a local store.

Especially for Russian tourists, Cypriots introduced the so-called pro-visa, which can be issued completely free of charge via the Internet by filling out a questionnaire.

You can also apply for a multiple-entry Cypriot visa through the embassy, ​​it will cost the traveler about 35 euros.

A jeep safari for two people will cost about 80 euros, you can have lunch in a budget cafe for 10-15 euros, dinner in a good restaurant with gourmet cuisine will cost from 40 to 80 euros.

When ordering a taxi, keep in mind that 1 km of the way here costs 1 euro. You can also rent a car - such a service will cost a tourist 35 euros per day, you will have to buy fuel for the car yourself.
