Getting to Kigali from Lebanon
The straight-line distance between Beirut and Kigali is about 4,026 km. Mind the season: Beirut is on the same time as Kigali in January and one hour ahead of Kigali in July.
From Lebanon, fly Ethiopian Airlines via Addis Ababa (ADD) to Kigali. Another option: fly Qatar Airways via Doha (DOH).
Beirut Rafic Hariri International Airport (BEY) is the international airport of Lebanon.
From Tripoli, Sidon, Tyre or anywhere else in Lebanon, one message to the concierge starts the plan.
Entry for citizens of Lebanon
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. Lebanon belongs to 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
Your home currency is the Lebanese pound (LBP); the stay is quoted in US dollars, and USD, RWF, MTN MoMo, Airtel Money and crypto are all accepted.
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.
