About the Nicosia–Paphos Intercity Route
The Nicosia to Paphos service connects the capital with the west of Cyprus and is one of the longer Intercity Buses journeys. It is used by students, airport travellers connecting onward in Paphos, and visitors heading for Kato Paphos, Coral Bay or the archaeological sites. Coaches use the island's main motorway network and arrive at the Paphos intercity terminal, where local buses continue toward the harbour and hotel areas.
How Often Buses Run
The Nicosia–Paphos timetable is more limited than the Nicosia–Limassol corridor, so checking live position matters. The map above highlights the Intercity route 26 variants and shows the Intercity fleet, helping you judge whether your coach is on the road before committing to the stop.
