Our Royal Zanzibar Beach Resort to Baraza Resort (Bwejuu) 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 78 km. Most trips take around 85 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.
Your Royal Zanzibar Beach Resort to Baraza Resort (Bwejuu) journey
The drive to Nungwi follows the main northern road out of Stone Town through Mtoni, Bububu and Mahonda, then up past Kinyasini and Mkokotoni to the very tip of the island. The road is fully paved and your driver knows every hotel entrance, so you are dropped at reception, not at the village junction.
Popular Nungwi hotels we drive to every day include Riu Palace Zanzibar, Hotel Riu Jambo, Royal Zanzibar Beach Resort, The Z Hotel, Essque Zalu and Sandies Baobab Beach. If your hotel is down a sandy lane, we use a vehicle that can reach the door safely.
Night arrivals are no problem: drivers work 24/7, track your flight and wait for free if you are delayed. A stop at an ATM, a SIM card shop or a supermarket on the way is fine — just tell the driver.
