No Driver on Arrival

We landed an hour ago. There is no driver here. We called the driver and he sounds sleep. We booked this service a week ago. This is unacceptable.

Operator response

We sincerely apologize for the delay you experienced upon arrival today. We understand how frustrating that must have been, especially after booking in advance. Your driver was already in the airport area and did manage to pick you up, but we truly regret the confusion and the impression it caused. Thank you for your patience, and we appreciate your understanding. We will take this as a lesson to improve our coordination and ensure a smoother experience going forward.

Did not come - die not get money back

They did not come. My name was not written on a paper. Waitet 20 minutes. Die not get money back. Sad. Taxi then was easy to find and cheper. .

Operator response

Thank you for your feedback. We are truly sorry for the inconvenience caused. However, our driver was at the airport on time and waiting at the designated meeting point with a name sign, as stated in the pick-up instructions. Unfortunately, he was unable to locate you in the arrivals area. We also tried contacting you by phone and sent a message via Viator, but we did not receive any response at that time. A few hours later, you informed us that you had already taken another taxi and arrived at the hotel. We kindly ask all guests to carefully read the pick-up instructions provided in the booking confirmation and to contact us immediately if they cannot find the driver. We are always available to assist in real time. We regret that this situation happened and remain committed to improving our service for all travelers.

Patient and Kind Driver

Very kind driver. Our flight was delayed a couple of hours and our driver was gracious enough to wait for us with no problem. He made sure we were comfortable the whole ride there as well as stopping to buy us cold water.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re really glad to hear that your driver took good care of you, especially after the flight delay. Providing comfort and assistance—like waiting patiently and getting cold water—is exactly the service we aim for. We truly appreciate your trust and hope to welcome you again on your next trip to Zanzibar. 🙏🚖✨

Great, friendly driver, but terrible van quality

Our driver Mohammad was great (kind and friendly). He arrived well in advance, gave descriptions of the down on the way. No complaints there. In fact, if he wasn’t making the experience better, I would have given a 1 star review. But wow, the van that we were given was terrible. The AC unit was broken, there was a huge rip in one of the cushions, and one of the windows didn’t open. Thus, all of the smoke, dust, and hot sunlight being kicked up outside came into the car… but we couldn’t close it because then we’d have no ventilation. I was thus sweating and breathing toxic fumes the entire 1.5 hour drive. This company hires well, needs to take better care of its equipment and have higher standards for its customers. For just $30 more we could’ve gotten a perfectly fine van with a competing company.

Operator response

Thank you very much for your feedback. We’re truly glad to hear that Mohammad provided excellent service and helped make your journey more enjoyable. He will appreciate your kind words. We are, however, very sorry to learn about your experience with the vehicle. This does not reflect the standards we aim to uphold. All of our vans are regularly cleaned, inspected, and maintained, so we take your comments seriously and will be investigating this specific vehicle immediately to ensure that any issues are resolved. Your comfort and safety are extremely important to us, and we apologize that this was not reflected during your trip. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and giving us the opportunity to improve. If you’re open to it, please contact us directly so we can follow up and make this right.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the delay you experienced upon arrival. Although we had your details in advance, it’s clear that our service fell short of the smooth and timely experience we aim to provide. We understand how frustrating it can be to wait after a long journey, especially when you needed to contact us to locate the driver. Please be assured that we are reviewing this situation with our team to prevent similar delays in the future.
