Getting to Hotel Riu Palace Zanzibar
Hotel Riu Palace Zanzibar is one of three Riu properties on Nungwi Beach at the northern tip of the island. Reaching it means the full cross-island run: about 60 km from Abeid Amani Karume International and roughly 75 minutes, the longest scheduled transfer we operate in Zanzibar. Distances here feel longer than the kilometres suggest, so a booked car matters more than it would on a short hop. Your driver waits inside ZNZ arrivals with a name sign, the inbound flight is tracked, and a late landing shifts the pickup at no extra charge. Mineral water, cold drinks and face towels are aboard for the drive north. Large all inclusive resorts have long entrance roads, so arriving in one vehicle with the bags loaded is simpler. Cancellation is free until 24 hours before pickup.
