About this route
Fumba sits on a peninsula in the south-west, home to Fumba Town and the Menai Bay conservation area. Bububu is a village just north of Stone Town, close to the Persian baths and Fuji Beach.
Our Fumba to Bububu 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 33 km. Most trips take around 45 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.
