About this route
Meliá Zanzibar is a five-star resort set on a private bay in Kiwengwa on the north-east coast. Paje is Zanzibar's kitesurfing capital, with a lively beach scene and bright white sand.
Our Meliá Zanzibar (Kiwengwa) to Paje 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 50 km. Most trips take around 60 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.
