Affordable Zanzibar Car Rental: Self-Drive Adventures from Just $25/Day in Tanzania

Your Zanzibar adventure begins in the enchanting Stone Town – a must-visit destination that will steal your heart from the moment you arrive!

⛴️ Stepping off the ferry? Perfect! Your wheels await just moments away at the nearby car rental company (check out p3 for reference).
🚗 We scored an absolute gem – a pristine white Nissan SUV that felt like it rolled straight off the showroom floor! Spotless interior, buttery-smooth ride, and enough space to comfortably explore the island in style.

💰 At just $25 per day plus a $10 permit fee (see p4), it’s an unbeatable deal for freedom on four wheels!
🪪 Pro tip: Don’t forget your Chinese driver’s license (original preferred)! We learned this last-minute but got lucky – the rental company accepted our digital license (like 12345) along with a translation.

👮🏽‍♂️ Island police encounters? No sweat! Flash your permit and they’ll wave you through with a smile. During our trip, officers were incredibly welcoming – after a quick check of our digital license and translation, they even greeted us with “Karibu Zanzibar!” (Welcome to Zanzibar!)

🛣️ Prepare for dreamy drives! Zanzibar’s roads are surprisingly well-maintained – smooth asphalt stretches endlessly with barely a pothole in sight, making every journey as pleasant as the destinations themselves.

Bonus tip: The island’s compact size means you’re never more than a stunning coastal drive away from your next adventure!
