Intercity Transfers in Zanzibar

Need to get around Zanzibar or transfer to the mainland? We offer private car transfers across the island as well as assistance booking ferries and onward buses. Whether you’re heading to a beach town, the airport, or to Dar es Salaam via ferry, we help you get there smoothly. Our services include hotel pickups, ferry terminal assistance, and trusted drivers. We also assist tourists with booking public transport, which can be confusing without local support.

Stone Town ⇆ Nungwi
Nungwi is one of Zanzibar’s most popular beach towns, located on the northern tip of the island. The drive from Stone Town takes around 1.5 to 2 hours. This is a very common transfer route, often booked by travelers heading straight to the beach after arriving by ferry or plane. We offer comfortable private transfers, and pickups from ferry terminals or the airport are easily arranged.

Stone Town ⇆ Paje, Jambiani or Michamvi
The east coast towns — Paje, Jambiani, and Michamvi — are loved for their kitesurfing, chill vibes, and beautiful beaches. Transfers from Stone Town take around 1.5 to 2.5 hours depending on exact location. Private transfers are by far the best option, as public transport (dala dalas) are slow and unpredictable. We arrange direct car transfers for convenience and safety.

Stone Town ⇆ Kendwa
Kendwa is right next to Nungwi and known for its vibrant beach scene and party atmosphere. It takes about 1.5 to 2 hours to get there from Stone Town. This is a popular request, and transfers can be arranged day or night — even for events like the famous Kendwa Full Moon Party.

Stone Town ⇆ Kizimkazi
Located in the south of Zanzibar, Kizimkazi is famous for dolphin tours and peaceful beaches. The drive from Stone Town takes around 1.5 hours. This route is popular for both day trips and full stays, and we offer reliable transfers directly to your hotel or lodge.

Stone Town ⇆ Ferry Port (Dar es Salaam ⇆ Zanzibar)
Many travelers use the ferry between Dar es Salaam and Zanzibar. We assist with ferry ticket bookings and arrange transfers between your hotel and the ferry terminal on both sides. The ferry takes around 2 hours, and we help ensure your boarding is smooth — especially helpful in peak tourist seasons when ferries can be crowded or confusing.

Stone Town ⇆ Zanzibar Airport (ZNZ)
While airport transfers are listed on a separate page, many of our intercity customers also require a ride to or from the airport. We provide seamless connections whether you’re heading to or coming from any corner of the island. Just let us know your hotel and flight details.

Need Help with Dala Dala or Local Buses?
While most tourists prefer private transfers, adventurous travelers might want to try local minibuses (“dala dalas”). These are cheap but tricky to use without local knowledge. If you want to experience this kind of travel, we can guide you on where to find the right routes and even send someone to help you board safely.
