Why hire a chauffeur rather than a rental car in North Cyprus?
Traffic in North Cyprus drives on the left, as in the UK, and the roads over the Kyrenia range to St Hilarion, Bellapais or Kantara are narrow and winding. With a chauffeur there is no rental contract or parking to deal with: the driver picks you up at your hotel in Guzelyurt, waits at every stop, and the price per vehicle is fixed when you book.
