Taxi Apps in Cyprus
Cyprus doesn't have the familiar Yandex Go or even Uber. However, there are several alternatives that perfectly replace these popular apps. Let's talk about them.
Need a car on the island? Rent one at Localrent — offers from local rental companies at attractive prices (starting from €10 per day!) through an aggregator with full insurance, guarantees, and transparency.
Which taxi apps are available in Cyprus
The apps feature an intuitive interface and were clearly developed with the leading industry apps in mind. Payment options include both card and cash.
Alfa Taxi
With our app, you can order a taxi in Limassol, Nicosia, Larnaca, and Paphos. We also offer airport transfers from almost anywhere in Cyprus, as well as cargo taxi services.
Bolt
The most popular app, and it's international—perhaps you already have it. It lets you find taxis and even order food, for example.
CabCY
A very popular app developed specifically in Cyprus. Available in major cities—Limassol, Nicosia, and Larnaca.
nTaxi
Noteworthy for allowing you to see the driver’s rating, name, and car number even before booking.
Viva Cy
An app with different fare options and payment methods, phone support service, and offices in Limassol.
inDrive
A large aggregator operating in more than 600 cities and nearly 50 countries.

A local app for finding taxis, offering options to find cars for smokers or to transport pets. Unfortunately, it does not have an Android app.
VIPS Taxi
You can order multiple taxis at once or choose a driver who speaks a foreign language.
Etaxi.cy
Uses maps and navigation specifically for Cyprus, but unfortunately, there is no Android app.
Frequently Asked Questions About Taxis in Cyprus
Can I pay for the ride by card?
Yes, if your card is not from a Russian bank. In many cases, you can also link a virtual card from one of the neo-banks.
How much does a taxi ride within the city cost?
It depends on the distance, but within one city it is quite possible to stay within 10 euros.
Is renting a car cheaper?
For several people and for a full day trip, it is definitely cheaper to rent a car — prices start from 30 euros per day. Here are some search aggregators where you can check options:
We listed apps, not taxi services. They mainly operate in cities. If you need intercity trips, it makes sense to check the Cyprus forum and order a transfer with a Russian-speaking driver.
You can also rent a car in Cyprus and explore the island yourself. Our material about traffic rules in Cyprus will help you.
