Price calculated. Change the date or destination if you like.
A private transfer from Zanzibar Airport (ZNZ) to Stone Town costs €25 per car for 1–3 passengers and €35 per van for 4–8. It is a fixed price for the whole vehicle, the same amount you pay when you book. The road distance is 8 km via Nyrere Road; the drive takes about 10 min with clear roads, so plan on 10–20 min at busy times.
Where the driver waits: The driver waits in the public arrivals area outside the terminal your flight lands at (Terminal 3 for international flights, Terminal 2 for domestic flights), after passport control, baggage reclaim and customs, holding a sign with your name. We track your flight and the first 60 minutes after landing are free; the driver helps with your luggage.
Stone Town, the historic core of Zanzibar City, lies only about 8 km north-west of the airport, so this is the shortest transfer on the island. The route follows Nyerere Road from the airport at Kisauni through the southern suburbs of Zanzibar City and enters the old town from the landward side. There are no road tolls on Unguja. Traffic is heaviest around the Darajani market area and the main roads into town at rush hours and on market days.
Stone Town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site with narrow lanes, carved wooden doors and coral-stone houses. Many of its alleys are too narrow for cars, so vehicles stop at the nearest street, such as Mizingani Road along the seafront or Kenyatta Road in Shangani, and the last few metres to some hotels are on foot. The Old Fort, the House of Wonders and the Forodhani Gardens line the waterfront, and the ferry terminal at Malindi lies just north of them. Darajani market and the Anglican cathedral on the site of the former slave market are a short walk inland.
Public transport: The Zanzibar Airports Authority publishes no scheduled airport bus or rail link; local dala-dala minibuses run without an official published timetable.
