Private Airport Transfers in Zanzibar

Private Airport Transfers in Zanzibar

Zanzibar Abeid Amani Karume International Airport is 8 kilometres south of Stone Town. The island has no rideshare service — transport options are negotiated taxis, dala-dala shared minibuses, or pre-booked private cars. Beach resort destinations in the north (Nungwi, Kendwa) and southeast (Paje, Jambiani) are 45–65 kilometres from the airport on roads ranging from good tarmac to rough coral track. Pre-booking a LocalsRide private car ensures an appropriate vehicle for your destination and a price agreed before you land.
