About this route

Kiwengwa is a long white-sand beach on the east coast lined with resorts and coral reef. Abeid Amani Karume International Airport (ZNZ) is Zanzibar's main gateway, just 6 km south of Stone Town.

Our Kiwengwa 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 40 km. Most trips take around 51 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.
