Trip planner

Plan your Paphos trip

Choose how long you have, your pace and what you enjoy. The planner groups each day by area so you are not zig-zagging across the region, flags what needs a car, and gives you a link to share.

How the planner works

Every place on GetPaphos carries structured data: where it is, how long it takes, the best time of day, seasons and whether you need a car. The planner scores places against your interests, then builds each day around one part of the region — Paphos town, the coast to Coral Bay, the hills, the Akamas, Polis or Aphrodite's coast — so travel time stays low. It is deterministic: the same choices always give the same plan.
