Getting to Kigali from the Dominican Republic

About 11,126 km separate Santo Domingo from Kigali, as the crow flies. In Santo Domingo, the time is six hours behind Kigali's.

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

Las Américas International Airport (SDQ), Casa De Campo International Airport (LRM) and Cibao International Airport (STI): the international airports of the Dominican Republic.

Whether you set off from Santiago de los Caballeros, Santo Domingo Oeste or Santo Domingo Este, the concierge plans the arrival around your flight.

Entry for citizens of the Dominican Republic

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. 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

Dominican peso (DOP) 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.
