๐จ๐พ Essential Tips for the VPT Grand Final 2025 in Cyprus
Everything you need to know before traveling.
The Vamos Poker Tour Grand Final 2025 is just around the corner, and we want every player to arrive in Cyprus fully prepared.
Whether itโs your first time on the island or youโre a VPT regular, here are the most important things to know before the festival.
๐ 1. Bring Your Passport โ Itโs Mandatory
The festival takes place in the Turkish part of Cyprus, which requires a passport for entry.
Nobody will be allowed to enter with just an ID card.
Double-check it before traveling!
โ๏ธ 2. Best Airports & Travel Options
The island has different access points and some important differences:
- Larnaca (Greek side) โ Best option, with the most flight connections.
- Ercan (Turkish side) โ Also possible, usually connecting via Istanbul.
- Paphos (Greek side) โ Works especially well for passengers coming through the UK.
No matter which airport you choose, all VPT hotel packages include round-trip airportโhotel shuttle service.
๐ฑ 3. Currency & Payments
Some quick but essential points:
- The local currency is Turkish Lira,
- BUT all tournaments are played, registered, and paid in US Dollars ($).
- You can pay with:
- ๐ต Cash: USD or EUR
- ๐ณ Credit card
- ๐ช Crypto (USDT)
- If you want to pay using Luxon or Revolut, just contact us โ we can arrange it directly for you from Vamos Poker Tour.
๐ฝ 4. Food Included for All VPT Players
Every hotel package booked through VPT includes:
โ Free buffet inside the Chamada Poker Room
โ All-inclusive buffet at Chamada Prestige Hotel, even if youโre staying at:
- MC Palace 4*
- Chamada Girne 5*
Enjoy unlimited food and drinks throughout the festival.
๐ 5. Transportation Made Easy
Booking a partner hotel guarantees comfort and convenience:
- Airport โ hotel shuttle: included in every package
- Hotel โ casino transfers: free if you stay at MC Palace or Chamada Girne
- Chamada Prestige guests stay directly in the same building as the casino
This means no taxis, no planning, no stress.
๐ 6. Where Youโll Be Staying
The closest town to the Chamada Prestige Casino is Girne (Kyrenia).
One of our partner hotels, Chamada Girne, is located right there, offering easy access to restaurants, cafรฉs and nightlife outside the poker room.
๐ต 7. Important! Avoid Using Mobile Data
Do NOT use your mobile data in Cyprus when you are on the Turkish side โ roaming charges are extremely expensive.
Recommended options:
- Keep mobile data OFF
- Use Wi-Fi in the hotel, casino and poker room
- Ask your provider if they offer a temporary roaming pass (rare, but sometimes available)
๐ 8. Power Adapters โ Very Important for EU Travelers
Cyprus uses UK-style power sockets (Type G), not standard EU plugs.
If you are traveling from most EU countries:
EU plugs (Type C / F) will NOT fit
You will need a EU โ UK (Type G) power adapter
