Tuscany and Kigali

In Italy, Tuscany is home to Florence, Prato, Livorno, Pisa and Arezzo. Florence, with about 367,000 inhabitants, is the largest city.

Getting to Kigali from Tuscany

Florence, the largest city of Tuscany, is the starting point for the distances and flights below.

Florence and Kigali are about 5,419 km apart in a straight line. In January, Florence is one hour behind Kigali; in July, on the same time as Kigali.

The international airports of Tuscany are Florence Airport, Peretola (FLR) and Pisa International Airport (PSA).

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

Entry for citizens of Italy

Entry rules follow your passport, not your city, so the rule for Tuscany is the rule for citizens of Italy. 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

Your home currency is the euro (EUR); the stay is quoted in US dollars, and USD, RWF, MTN MoMo, Airtel Money and crypto are all accepted. Payment details come only from the concierge, after 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.

From the airport, the villas are about fifteen to twenty minutes by car, and the pickup is arranged at any hour.
