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. We link the official immigration page below; Irembo is where online applications are made.
At home you pay in the CFP franc (XPF); in Kigali, the villa is quoted in US dollars and can be paid in USD, RWF, by mobile money or in common cryptocurrencies.
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.
Whatever time you land, a private pickup can be waiting; The Black Key Arrival includes it at Amahoro and Urugwiro for three nights or more.
Amahoro in Kibagabaga and Urugwiro in Kacyiru sleep eight each, Irebero in Rebero seven and Ikaze in Niboye, Kicukiro four. Several villas can be booked together for a larger group.
