About this route
Jozani Chwaka Bay National Park is the only home of the rare Zanzibar red colobus monkey. Uroa is a relaxed east-coast village with wide tidal flats and local fishing life.
Our Jozani Forest to Uroa 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 25 km. Most trips take around 37 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.
