A note before you go. Start with Archaeological Museum of the Larnaka District, then decide whether The Church of St. Lazarus deserves a separate visit rather than rushing both. The suggested days are an editable grouping, not a timed tour. Visit allowances exclude transfers, meals and queues; confirm the exact entrance and current visiting arrangements for Hala Sultan Tekke before setting off.

BEFORE YOU SET OFF
It can be used for multiple passengers on the same journey. The bus 425 goes from the airport to the town centre every 20 minutes during the day.
Archaeological Museum of the Larnaka District and The Church of St. Lazarus are about 0.8 km apart in a straight line. Use the route link to compare the actual streets or transport connections before putting both in the same morning; the measurement is not a walking distance or a transfer estimate.
