About this route
Bububu is a village just north of Stone Town, close to the Persian baths and Fuji Beach. Abeid Amani Karume International Airport (ZNZ) is Zanzibar's main gateway, just 6 km south of Stone Town.
Our Bububu to Zanzibar Airport transfer is a private, door-to-door ride — no shared shuttles and no waiting for other guests. Your driver tracks your flight or ferry, waits with a name sign, helps with luggage and takes the fastest road, roughly 18 km. Most trips take around 31 minutes depending on traffic and road works.
The price is fixed per vehicle, not per person, and includes fuel, bottled water and waiting time. Pay by card, mobile money (M-Pesa, Tigo Pesa, Airtel) or cash in USD or TZS to the driver.
