We provide Security and Bodyguard Services across Cyprus
The Island of Cyprus has a complex history and is in effect two separate countries, Northern Cyprus and Southern Cyprus. Intelligent Protection International Limited has vast experience in providing Bodyguard services in Cyprus.
Northern Cyprus is administered by Turkey and Southern Cyprus by Greece.
The fact that Cyprus is split into two, and all the problems that comes with that, does present security issues. The situation between the two countries Northern Cyprus and Southern Cyprus can become inflamed. We provide our clients with a travel risk brief that is based on our own Travel Advisories for Cyprus. The latest travel advice can be found on our pages: Travel Advice for Southern Cyprus and Travel Advice for Northern Cyprus.
There is a threat of terrorism in Cyprus, both North and South. There is also organised petty crime that targets tourists in both the North and the South.
Our Bodyguard services in Cyprus cover the whole Island including the cities of Nicosia, Limassol, Strovolos, Larnaca, Famagusta, Lakatamia, Kyrenia, Paphos, Kato Polemidhia and Aglandjia.
English is widely spoken across the whole of Cyprus with Greek and Turkish being spoken in the South and North respectively. If you have a specific language requirement, please inform us and we will be happy to assist in providing you with a multilingual bodyguard.
Our Bodyguard services in Cyprus are provided by former members of the British Military who have vast experience of working on the Island. All of our Bodyguards in Cyprus are trained and vetted to British standards, all are also trained and qualified in first aid.
We provide both male and female bodyguards and prefer to work in a low-key, covert manner. This lends itself well to locations like Cyprus and is less intrusive to our clients.
Whatever your reason for travelling to Cyprus, business or leisure, we are happy to assist in providing you with the best possible security solutions to ensure your safety.
In support of our clients, we are also able to provide the following services in Cyprus:
- Security Reviews and Risk Assessments
- Bodyguard Services
- Secure Ground Transportation
- Residential and Villa Security
- Personal Medical Officers
- Vehicle Tracking
- Technical Security & CCTV
Whilst the roads are very good, the overall standard of driving across Cyprus is not the best and there is a high proportion of drink drivers in summer months. We do advise clients to make use of our Chauffeur services to mitigate the issue and to ensure smooth transportation.
If you have never travelled to Cyprus before, there is much to do besides enjoying the sun. Cyprus is famed for its seafood and for its history. Paphos became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1980 and is the site of ruins from the Greco-Roman period.

Hybrid Security Services - Limassol, Cyprus
In 2022 and 2024, Intelligent Protection provided Close Protection Bodyguards and Secure Ground Transportation services for a client and his friends visiting a music festival in Limassol, Cyprus.
Our client was a well-known football player. He required a very low-key, covert approach and his vacation to be as private as possible. One concern was unwanted attention from the Paparazzi or rival football fans who wanted to abuse him and his group. Our client had bad past experiences with a personal security team not acting correctly, so he moved his security requirement to Intelligent Protection.

Close Protection - Nicosia, Cyprus
In 2018, we were contacted by an existing client who was travelling to Nicosia to give evidence in court. Our client was concerned about his safety and felt intimidated by the thought of travelling alone and giving evidence.
We have over the years worked with many clients involved in legal disputes and understand the pressures involved; more so if threats have been made.
We flew with our client from Germany to Nicosia and accompanied him for the duration of his stay.
