Meals: Breakfast and dinner included, choice of meat/vegetarian diet.

Flight connections: 1) From your country to Larnaca Airport, located on the Greek or Southern part of Cyprus, by regular or chartered flights and then arrange for transfer to the Top Set Hotel in Northern Cyprus; (Do not change your money on the Greek side of the island...you will not be able to use it on the Turkish side.) By going through the most popular websites for last minute charter seats you can often book a very low price air ticket. The transportation from Larnaca Airport to the Hotel takes about 1.5 hours and should be ordered through conny@email.com The cost for the trip is 50 GB Pounds (roughly 600:- Swedish Crowns) one way. The cost is the same whether it is for one person or four (the van can take up to four).

2) Take a regular flight from your country to Ercan Airport in Northern Cyprus. This route usually entails flying to Istanbul and then changing to a smaller plane which flies to Ercan. Please also note that a direct charter flight to Ercan is possible from England. Transport to the Hotel must also be booked through conny@email.com. This is a shorter and less expensive ride - about 40 minutes and costs about 60 Turkish lira (320:- Swedish Crowns). This van also takes up to four persons.

Money: We advise you to change your money to Turkish Lira before you come to Cyprus - you will get a better exchange rate. Also, you can pay for your hotelroom with a credit card, but the hotel charges 5% more for the use of the card. You can also bring US Dollars or Euros.

Miscellaneous: Optional excursions will also be arranged during each stay. The weather in Cyprus during October is like the European summer.
Bring insect repellant for mosquitoes and smaller insects if you would like to sleep with an open window. You can also bring a mosquito net if you prefer.
