Larnaca residents and tourists have now a new, convenient way to get around town! RideNow is the first car-sharing company in Cyprus and since April 14, 2022 it also operates in Larnaca.

Now you can start or finish your rental in Larnaca, Paphos, Limassol and the airports (Laranaca and Paphos).

Where can I drive the sharing car?

You can drive anywhere in Cyprus, except for the occupied (Northern) part.

The service came to help residents and tourists move more freely around the island, gaining mobility and saving money. Especially when you only need the car for a few hours or days, and renting a car from a normal rental company is not possible or feasible.

Can I leave the car in a different city than where I started?

For example, I live in Laranaca and I’m meeting friends in Paphos, I can take the car in Larnaca, go to my friend’s house and finish the ride there, not having to pay anything while I’m there.

I can also go from Limassol to take a flight at Paphos airport and leave the car at the airport.
