Practical local advice

Jambiani is long; include your exact hotel or pin so the driver reaches the right section.

Times vary with traffic, weather, road works and the exact hotel entrance. Add your flight, accommodation and luggage details when booking.

Make a day of it

Ask for a return ride, waiting time or several stops in the booking notes. Attraction, boat, guide and restaurant fees are separate unless confirmed.
