Meet & Greet at Abeid Amani Karume International Airport (Arrivals)

Abeid Amani Karume International Airport (ZNZ), Zanzibar, Tanzania

Tips from local experts:

  • After clearing immigration and baggage claim, follow signs to the Arrivals exit; most drivers wait just outside the arrivals doors—look for a printed nameboard.
  • Provide your flight number on booking so the driver can track delays; if your flight is late, the driver will adjust pickup automatically within the free waiting window.
  • Keep passports and booking confirmation handy for quick identification at the meeting point; mobile phone signal is reliable in the arrivals hall for last-minute communication.

Private Transfer to East Coast Hotel (Paje / Jambiani / Michamvi)

Flight arrival + 15 minutes – Flight arrival + 1 hour 30 minutes • 1h

Comfortable, private transfer in an air-conditioned vehicle direct to your East Coast hotel. The drive includes a short luggage load time and a scenic approach to the east coast villages. Driver can point out local highlights and best arrival points for each hotel.

Paje, Zanzibar, Tanzania

Tips from local experts:

  • The route to Paje/Jambiani/Michamvi follows the main eastbound road from the airport and can include short unpaved sections near village entrances—advise your driver of your exact hotel name for the best drop-off point.
  • If you prefer a quieter seat for views of the coastline, ask to sit on the side facing the ocean when boarding; light layers are useful if you arrive in the evening when coastal breezes can be cooler.
  • Village roads near hotels may be narrow or sandy; the driver will usually stop at the main access point and assist with luggage for the short final walk if vehicle access is limited.
