Testimonials

Hear it from them

I had an absolutely wonderful experience with the rental shop during my trip to Zanzibar! The communication was fantastic from start to finish, making the entire process incredibly smooth and stress-free. I especially appreciated the convenience of having the motorbike delivered directly to the airport upon my arrival and picked up from there before my departure. The motorbike itself was really nice and perfect for exploring the island. I highly recommend the rental shop to anyone visiting and will definitely be renting from them again next time!

Great rental company. I booked a Royal Enfield Himalayan for a week. My Kilimanjaro adventure ended early, and my arrival time in Zanzibar changed. The guys met me at the airport, quickly processed the paperwork, and helped tie down my luggage. The motorcycle was in good working order, no issues, but the helmet they gave me was old, with a lot of scratches on the visor. I spent a week riding around the island and was stopped by the police twice. They checked my documents and suggested the best place to buy gas. I had no problems with the motorcycle. On the way back, they met me at the airport again, signed the paperwork, gave me my deposit, and helped me carry my luggage to the airport. I recommend the rental shop.

Highly recommend! If you need a motorbike in Zanzibar you have to go to the rental shop! Very nice service, best prices in town! Rented a motorbike for 5 days, no issue, staff very helpful even showed you where to go!

June 5, 2026

Great cheap 125cc iron trusty steed, the man at the rental shop is very honest, I enjoyed my time with the scooter, was only about $20 a day for the rental which is a fair price, bare in mind the Zanzibar government requires you to have a $10 permit, but the rental shop takes care of it and even encourages you to Google it. Very good scooter and in good condition, they're not too fussy about little scratches etc which is good too, see you again.

Rented a Scooter for 10 days. I went for delivery and pick up by the hotel, It worked like a charm. The first scooter I rented by the hotel for 25$/day was crap. The rental shop's Scooter rate for 10 days was way cheaper than 25$/day. And Scooter itself? Of course it was second hand, but it was great! I would not hesitate to come back next time. And that's the best rating there is!

Perfect place to rent a motorbike. I got a Honda 250 for 10 days to explore the island, delivery and return went smoothly. I also could return it at the airport to take my flight right after. Would be happy to use their services when I return to Zanzibar.

We have a good experience with the scooter rented, the host was very responsive. We recommend to rent with the rental shop if you came to Zanzibar.

Many greetings to the whole team, Adam and Issq, and Riderly...everything worked perfectly. The scooter was delivered to the hotel on time and was in excellent condition. We never felt unsafe with it. The handover and pickup went smoothly. We had a wonderful time with the scooter. Great prices, completely reasonable. Thanks again, Riderly!

March 27, 2026

Thank you for the scooter. Best price in Zanzibar at the rental shop.

The staff at this professional establishment were very accommodating. They also have the best price for a 400cc motorbike on the island. The motorbike was in good shape, and was safe. They came to me with the motorbike and also picked it up for a very small extra charge (10 usd). If you want to experience the island the right way, go with this rental shop. If you have never ridden in African countries, this is one of the mildest cultures on the roads, comparing to Congo or Nigeria. Take it slow until you get the hang of it. The 400cc motorbike allows you the power to also avoid dangerous situations. Keep the rental company on speed dial as I am sure they can help with anything you need from Stonetown to Paje to Nungwi!

Great service! Close to Zanzibar airport. They picked us up FREE of charge from the airport, motorbike in good condition and affordable (16usd per day), they also organised the local driver licence (10usd). They also provided straps for our bags free of charge. Recommended

This place is definitely ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐! I rented a scooter for over two weeks, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. They gave me a great price, and the guys there were super friendly and helpful. The scooter itself was in great condition - very reliable with no issues at all during my rental period. What really stood out was how they checked in with me during those two weeks to make sure everything was going well and to see if I needed any help. I would definitely rent from them again. Thanks for everything! 🙌

Marta D

Feb. 23, 2026

Great service and very fast! The scooter pick-up process was smooth, and the motorbike was functioning well and very reliable. Honestly, it was in much better condition than many of the scooters I saw around the city. I recommend contacting them in advance when you want to rent, as there isn't a fixed location - they can come and deliver the scooter to you, which is very convenient. Highly recommended!

Paul M

Just as you'd want it: uncomplicated, thoughtful, and honest. And the moped ran perfectly. I had a fantastic five-day tour.

Donald M

Feb. 17, 2026

Grateful for the most amazing Honda motorbike I rented for many weeks! I traveled through the whole island and always felt safe on my motorbike. I highly recommend this company - you will receive amazing service, genuine care and lots of jooooy!!!! ASANTE SANA

Got a lovely scooter here - modern and in good shape. The person who rents them out is very friendly and helps with delivery - to the airport or in my case to the ferry terminal. They can also pick you up at the airport. The scooter gives you a safe and affordable transport for all of Zanzibar - little fuel consumption and you can go wherever you want whenever you want.

Lukas N

Jan. 29, 2026

I saw that the rental shop were nearby & offered delivery so after a couple of messages I arranged for a scooter to be dropped at my hotel the following evening so I could have it for the full day (don't drive at night on Zanzibar!). The scooter was delivered complete with requested helmet. Rode it for the best part of four hours & it never skipped a beat. I'm planning to return to Jambiani next year & next time I'll book one of the rental shop's scooters for a week. Excellent service all round and a totally reliable vehicle. Thank you.

Hassle-free scooter rental! The host is a lovely guy, super helpful, with fast WhatsApp communication in good English, hotel delivery/pickup with helmet(s), flexible on extensions, and a great price. Scooter ran perfectly-only minor issue: indicators don't blink, just on/off. (Did not affect my riding though) Highly recommend!

Last minute booking over WhatsApp. Scooter was delivered sooner than promised and picked up without hassle. And, I have to say, honest about the product. See photos ;) Appreciate the service!

Darren Y

Jan. 12, 2026

We are very satisfied with the scooter rental. The scooter was in excellent technical condition and we managed to ride it all around the island without any problems. Pickup and drop-off were very easy and flexible. The owner was always available by phone and very helpful. Thank you very much! We highly recommend this rental to everyone.

We were staying in Paje (East of the island) and had arranged for drop off and collection of a Honda XR 250 at our resort. The motorbike was dropped off on time and was extremely reliable. They had also already arranged my driving permit so I didn't need to worry about that. It allowed us to travel the island day and night with no issues. They also provide local support if needed. Collection was also easy and on time before we left for the airport. Also good communication throughout. Excellent service overall and would definitely use again.

We rented a scooter for one day. The owner helped us with getting the permit and dropped off the motorbike at our hotel. The scooter was in a great condition. I really recommend this company and I will rent with them again when I come back to Zanzibar.

Amelia G

The scooter was perfect. The staff was friendly and helped me to prepare the documents for the Zanzibar driving permit. The price is affordable, 25$ a day but you have a discount if you take the scooter for more days.

Angelo T

Dec. 27, 2025

Amazing experience! I rented a scooter in Zanzibar and loved it. The scooter was in great condition and perfect for getting around the island. I explored almost the whole Zanzibar over 7 days and had zero problems. Riding a scooter is definitely the best way to see the island and enjoy the freedom. Very happy with the service, everything was easy and smooth. Highly recommended! 🙌

I rented a motorbike from the rental shop in Jambiani, Zanzibar, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. The service was professional, the prices were fair, and the motorbikes were in great condition. The owner was really friendly, helpful, and made the whole process easy and stress-free. I highly recommend the rental shop for anyone looking for a reliable and smooth rental experience in Jambiani!

Rented a scooter from the rental shop in Stone Town and it was a really smooth experience. The motorbike was in great shape, everything worked perfectly. They even delivered it straight to my hotel and picked it up afterwards - super convenient. The team is really friendly and easygoing, and you can definitely negotiate a good price with them. Highly recommend if you want to get around Zanzibar easily!

Amazing experience with the rental shop. Very quick rental process, friendly, flexible and helpful owner and superb service overall. Unbeatable price as well. We could leave our bags for storage which was helpful. They have website to check for prices and you can book it online. Scooter was not new but mighty and we had no problems. In general I really recommend to rent for longer and explore whole island on scooter like local. We discovered that east and south side of island are most scenic, relaxing and calmest to drive.

Hiring a motorbike in Zanzibar

Still have questions? Chat with us now

There’s a reason why visitors to Zanzibar find themselves returning to the archipelago again and again: this is a place that’s easy to fall in love with. Once you’ve landed at Abeid Amani Karume International Airport or docked at Malindi Port, you’ll have some of the world’s most beautiful beaches within easy reaching distance. Offering warm waters, beautiful views, and a welcoming atmosphere, this region of Tanzania is the perfect place to unwind, relax, and have fun.

At the top of everyone’s “Must-Do” list are the beaches. Some of the most pristine beaches on the planet are found here. The very best on the island are Nungwi/Kendwa, Paje/Jambiani, and Matemwe/Kiwengwa, which all have their own energy.

The other natural highlights of the island are the Kuumbi Caves and Jozani Forest; you will not be disappointed. In fact, Zanzibar is so beautiful that it’s a good idea to get a scooter hire and just go exploring. If you’re looking for a touch of the local life, then you should pay a trip to Spice Island and the House of Wonders.

Spice Island reflects the city’s trading history, while the House of Wonders was the first to have electricity and running water. If you’re in the area for a few days and want to take your motorcycle hire or quad hire to explore other parts of the region, then you’re in luck. Dar es Salaam, Dodoma, Tanga, Morogoro, and Mtwara are all within a few hours’ drive from Zanzibar.

To book your motorbike/scooter/quad online all you need is a credit or debit card. When you pick the motorbike up, you'll need:

  • Your booking voucher to show that you've paid the reservation.
  • Driver's debit card, with enough funds for the motorbike's deposit.
  • Driver's valid driving licence, suitable for the rental motorbike category.
  • Passport or ID for the rental company to verify your identity.

For most motorbike hire companies, the age requirement is between 18 and 75 years old. Some of our bigger motorbikes have special age requirements, you can see if that's the case in the motorbike's reservation page.

Companies’ conditions vary. In the search results you will be able to see what kind of licence each motorbike requires. Usually a scooter requires B (car) or AM/A1. Anything bigger usually requires A2 or A.

On average a rental scooter in Zanzibar costs €21 per day.

Scooter hire in Zanzibar costs €140 per week, on average.

Yes. The vast majority of our rentals include basic insurance, local taxes and any road fees. You have the option to add 'extras' (ie. One-Way rental, GPS, GoPro, etc) but we'll clearly list any additional costs involved before you book your motorbike/scooter.

In most occasions the maximum you might be charged is the security deposit. If you included Premium Insurance with your booking, then your security deposit will be protected. When you pickup up your rental, our local rental partner will explain the procedure to follow and emergency contact details in the event of an accident - your safety always comes first.

Yes, as long as they meet the rental requirements. Just fill in their details while you're making the reservation.

We work with the largest network of motorbike rental agencies in the world, the Riderly team works with them day and night to ensure we are always best on price in the market. If you found the same rental cheaper elsewhere, get in touch and we'll match their price.
