We can definitely recommend to use Kikabu for holiday car rental

Renting through Kikabu Cars was a smooth experience - efficient and on-time vehicle pick-up and drop-off from the airport made it a pleasant experience. The team quickly supported us when we had 2 tyre punctures driving around on the island, which needed to be fixed. We can definitely recommend to use Kikabu for holiday car rental.... Martin K, UK.

Thank you for all, nice company. I will talk about you with my friend
who wants to visit Zanzíbar Island. Fernando R, Espana.

I wanted to say thanks for your excellent service, The person who handed the car to us at the airport was extremely helpful and polite. Manuel C, Italy.

Go Kibabu, drive happy!

Happy to!
My family was very happy with both the vehicle you provided as well as your service. The delivery driver was friendly and helpful, helping us get fuel before beginning the journey home. He also made sure I could handle the car. The vehicles was clean and handled the roads well, including those littered with potholes. I ESPECIALLY appreciated that the vehicle we had meant we were not once stopped by traffic police. That had been a major cause of stress beforehand and we felt absolutely relieved to not have to deal with it. Roman G, California.

The process to book the rental car went very well, you were replying super quick to our questions, and it was very useful to receive the tips to drive in the island and specially on how to deal with the police harassing the tourists. Helio R, Switzerland.

Kibabu Cars was a great find. They sorted out the paperwork in advance via email and then everything is done on trust, you pay in US$ on collection and they give you the keys. No credit cards or time wasting. The rep was waiting at arrivals as promised. Rental cars in Africa are often older with high mileage but it was obvious that the engine, suspension and aircon were maintained to a very high standard so we were very happy with our choice. It was obvious the car was going to be reliable. On return rep was waiting at entrance as promised and we handed back the keys and headed into airport. Go Kibabu, drive happy! Jason B, Germany.

We were a group of 9 friends who rented 2 Toyota RAV 4s. The cars,
although they were not new, worked wonderfully, without any problems. The delivery and return took place at the same airport where they were waiting for us upon arrival with our name. We have been very satisfied with the service and fully recommend it. Excellent. Roger S, UK.

Thank you for the good service we received from Kibakucars

We were impressed with the change of cars and how fast the response was after we reported that we had some problems with the one we initially rented. We can recommend Kibakucars to anyone wishing to rent a car in Zanzibar. Best regards, Deon F

We had a great time on Zanzibar, we had a good expiriance with Kibabu Cars. We had some issues with a rental car and the boss delivered another car for us in just one hour. So everything was great, 5 stars for Kibabu Cars. See you next year, Aljaž A

Mohamed E (Egypt).

I’ve just returned to Australia after 10 beautiful nights in dreamy Zanzibar. I am a single mum who works in the airline industry so am lucky enough to travel the world with my 16 and 18 year old children. We love an adventure and having the freedom to do as we please once we arrive in our destination. That’s why we always chose to drive. I’d read some information about driving around Zanzibar and it sounded a little difficult but I decided to look into it anyway. I’m so glad I did as it was absolutely easy and we really saw so much more than we could’ve otherwise. From booking, follow up emails from Kibabu and meeting the wonderful staff who met us at our hotel, organised my driving permit and met us at the airport when we were leaving, the whole process was flawless. Thank you so much for the best car rental service I have experienced anywhere. Huge recommendation to use Kibabu for your car rental in Zanzibar. So happy, Sydney ,Australia
