During the summer months the last bus run until 9pm and during winter months less frequent last bus around 7pm.

Prices are cheap depending the distance you travel expect to pay around 2.5-4 TL and for long distance for example Kyrenia to Famagusta 8-10TL.

Each Town will have a bus designated area in Kyrenia main town for local bus routes buses are on the opposite side of the road of the Law courts and main Post Office and for long distance close to the belediye or council office in town centre.
