9 planes para Chipre, de 3 a 50 GB. La validez va de 1 día a 180 días. 9 de ellos van con 5G donde la red local la tiene.
6 planes se pueden recargar sin necesidad de instalar una segunda eSIM. Los planes funcionan en Vodafone, Epic.
Son cuentas hechas sobre nuestro catálogo real, no una cifra de marketing: la lista de planes que tienes más arriba sale de esos mismos datos.
Ningún paquete regional cubre Chipre: aquí la única opción es un plan de un solo país, que además suele ser el más barato.
Una eSIM de viaje para Chipre es una SIM digital que se descarga tu móvil: sin tarjeta de plástico y sin mostrador en el aeropuerto. La compras por internet, tocas el enlace de instalación que te mandamos por email (en ese mismo email va también un código QR) y se instala como una segunda línea junto a la SIM que ya tienes. Se queda dormida hasta que llegas a Chipre y entonces se conecta sola a Vodafone, Epic con 5G donde la haya y LTE en el resto. Tu número de siempre sigue funcionando para llamadas y SMS; la eSIM solo se encarga de los datos.
Los mapas, los mensajes y las apps de transporte gastan poquísimo: unos 300–500 MB al día. Si le sumas fotos, redes sociales y algún vídeo suelto, te vas más cerca de 1 GB diario. Para una semana, con 5 GB vas sobrado; para dos semanas, si compartes internet o si tiras mucho de vídeo, mejor 10 GB o más, o un plan recargable que puedas ampliar sobre la marcha. Los planes de Chipre empiezan en 4,80 € y hay 7 tamaños, cada uno con su precio por GB a la vista para que aciertes sin calculadora.
No. Una eSIM de viaje para Chipre es un plan de datos local, no roaming internacional: pagas el precio que ves y tu operador no te pasa ninguna factura por megabyte. Pon la eSIM como línea de datos, desactiva el roaming en tu SIM de siempre y al volver a casa no habrá sustos. Y como te devolvemos el dinero mientras no la instales, comprarla con antelación no tiene ningún riesgo.
Meze
Not a dish but a format — fifteen to thirty small plates arriving in sequence over a couple of hours. Ordering meze commits the table to the whole progression.
Tavernas everywhere; ask whether it is meat, fish or mixed.
Halloumi
The protected-origin brine cheese, grilled or fried so it squeaks. Cypriot halloumi is firmer and saltier than versions made elsewhere.
Everywhere, and village dairies sell it fresh.
Souvla
Large chunks of pork or lamb on a long skewer turned slowly over charcoal for hours. Distinct from souvlaki, which is smaller and faster.
Village tavernas, and at any Sunday family gathering.
Kleftiko
Lamb sealed in a clay oven and cooked for hours until it falls apart. Traditionally cooked in a sealed pit.
Tavernas in the Troodos villages.
Sheftalia
Minced pork and onion wrapped in caul fat and grilled, so it bastes itself. A Cypriot speciality not found in Greece.
Grill houses and meze spreads.
Loukoumades
Small fried dough balls soaked in syrup and dusted with cinnamon.
Street stalls and festivals.
Commandaria
A sweet fortified wine made from sun-dried grapes, produced in the same region for millennia and claimed as one of the oldest named wines still in production.
Village wineries in the Commandaria region north of Limassol.
Koupepia
Vine leaves stuffed with rice and minced meat, cooked with lemon.
Any taverna; a standard meze plate.
Zivania
A clear grape spirit distilled from pomace and local wine, strong and traditionally offered to guests.
Village tavernas; commercial and homemade versions both exist.
Cypriot coffee
Finely ground coffee boiled in a briki and served unfiltered with the grounds settling. Ordered by sweetness — sketos, metrios or glykys.
Village kafeneia, where it is a social institution.
Kato Paphos Archaeological ParkPaphos
Roman villas with exceptional floor mosaics, an odeon and a lighthouse, all in a UNESCO-listed coastal site.
