Entry for citizens of Canada

Entry rules follow your passport, not your city, so the rule for Sherbrooke is the rule for citizens of Canada. As citizens of a member state of the African Union, the Commonwealth or La Francophonie, you receive a visa on arrival and the visa fee is waived for a visit of up to 30 days. Canada's memberships include the Commonwealth and La Francophonie. Rules can change: check the official page of Rwanda's Directorate General of Immigration and Emigration before you travel; the online application is on Irembo.

Money and payment

At home you pay in the Canadian dollar (CAD); in Kigali, the villa is quoted in US dollars and can be paid in USD, RWF, by mobile money or in common cryptocurrencies. No payment details are published on this website: the concierge sends them once your dates are confirmed.

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

Airport pickup can be arranged at any hour, and at Amahoro and Urugwiro The Black Key Arrival includes it for stays of three nights or more.

The villas

Amahoro in Kibagabaga and Urugwiro in Kacyiru sleep eight each, Irebero in Rebero seven and Ikaze in Niboye, Kicukiro four. There is no lobby and no one else staying: the house is yours. In Canada you might call it a vacation rental or a private estate; in Kigali it is a private villa, booked to your group alone.
