Coming to Kigali from the Gambia? Private serviced villas, booked whole to one group at a time, and a concierge who looks after the arrival.
The straight-line distance between Banjul and Kigali is about 5,420 km. The clock in Banjul is two hours behind Kigali's.
From the Gambia, fly Turkish Airlines via Istanbul (IST) to Kigali.
Flights out of the Gambia start at Banjul International Airport (BJL).
From Serekunda, Yundum or anywhere else in the Gambia, one message to the concierge starts the plan.
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. As a member of the African Union and the Commonwealth, the Gambia benefits from Rwanda's rules for those groups. 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.
You will be travelling from the Gambian dalasi (GMD) to a stay quoted in US dollars; payment is accepted in USD, RWF, mobile money or crypto.
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.
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.
