Getting to Kigali from New Caledonia
The straight-line distance between Nouméa and Kigali is about 14,572 km. Nouméa is nine hours ahead of Kigali.
From New Caledonia, most travellers connect through Doha (Qatar Airways), Nairobi (Kenya Airways) or Addis Ababa (Ethiopian Airlines); your concierge plans the connection.
New Caledonia's international airport is La Tontouta International Airport (NOU).
Entry for citizens of New Caledonia
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
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.
The concierge confirms the total in writing and sends the payment details after your dates are set.
Cash is also accepted on arrival at the villa, in US dollars or Rwandan francs, with a written receipt from the concierge.
