Getting to Kigali from Austria

As the crow flies, Kigali is about 5,733 km from Vienna. In January, Vienna is one hour behind Kigali; in July, on the same time as Kigali.

From Austria, most travellers connect through Brussels (Brussels Airlines), Paris CDG (RwandAir) or London Heathrow (RwandAir); your concierge plans the connection.

Austria has six international airports, including Vienna International Airport (VIE), Graz Airport (GRZ) and Linz-Hörsching Airport (LNZ).

Guests travelling from Graz, Linz and Salzburg get the same welcome: a pickup at any hour and the villa ready.

Entry for citizens of Austria

Citizens of every country can get a visa on arrival at Kigali International Airport and at all land borders, or apply online before travelling. The visa fee does not exceed USD 50 for a single entry or USD 70 for multiple entries. Before you fly, confirm the rule for your passport on the official immigration page; online applications go through Irembo.

Money and payment

Euro (EUR) is not used for the booking itself: villas are quoted in US dollars, payable in USD, Rwandan francs, MTN MoMo, Airtel Money or crypto.

Once your dates are confirmed, the concierge sends the details; never pay to details found anywhere else.

Cash is also accepted on arrival at the villa, in US dollars or Rwandan francs, with a written receipt from the concierge.

Arrival

The Black Key Arrival, airport pickup included, comes with stays of three nights or more at Amahoro and Urugwiro; elsewhere it is quoted first.
