Getting there from the cruise port

Cruise ships dock at Limassol New Port / passenger terminal. City marina and old town are roughly 10–15 minutes away. Kourion lies about 20–25 minutes west along the coast. Aphrodite's Rock (Petra tou Romiou) is typically 40–50 minutes. Troodos Mountains need longer — allow 1–1.5 hours each way. Confirm your all-aboard time and keep a 60–90 minute return buffer.

Tips for cruise passengers

  • Share priorities when booking
  • Request early start in summer
  • Specify child seats if needed
