Self-drive car rental in Zanzibar, arranged properly
We arrange self-drive Toyota RAV4s in Zanzibar. We meet you at the airport and hand the car over in person, and your driving permit is filed before you land. You pay at the car — not on this website.
What we arrange
You get a car that has been checked, documents that are in order before you arrive, and one number that answers for the whole rental.
The car
- Ride height for sand and speed bumps
- Narrow enough for village lanes
- Air conditioning
Toyota RAV4
Compact SUV, five seats, unlimited mileage
How it works
- Step 1: Send us your dates, your flight number and how many people are driving
- Step 2: We confirm the car with the provider and come back with the amount due
- Step 3: Send a licence and passport scan, and we file the permit
- Step 4: You are met on arrival, the car is handed over in about ten minutes, and you pay there
- Step 5: You keep the same support thread until the car is back
What we will not do
Read before you drive
Written from the island. Where we are not certain of something, we say so.
- What the permit is and how it is obtained
- What the roads are actually like, route by route
- How to behave at a checkpoint
- Which car suits the island, and when a small one is enough
Start with driving in Zanzibar or road conditions.
Request a car
Tell us your dates and your flight number. You get the car we can supply, the amount due and what it includes — in writing, before you commit to anything.
Questions first? Read the common questions, the prices, insurance and the permit, how you are met on arrival, support, or who supplies the car.
