Getting to Kigali from Rwanda

From elsewhere in Rwanda, Kigali is reached by road, and the concierge can arrange a private driver both ways. RwandAir also flies between Kamembe (KME), in Rusizi, and Kigali. From Rubavu (Gisenyi), Musanze, Nyagatare, Muhanga (Gitarama), Huye (Butare) and Karongi (Kibuye), a villa in Kigali suits a weekend in the city, a family celebration or a business trip.

A stay in Kigali without leaving the country is still a change of pace: a house of your own, a pool, a private chef if you want one, and the city's venues minutes away, from the Kigali Convention Centre to BK Arena. For people who live in Kigali, it is the staycation version.

Entry for citizens of Rwanda

Rwandan citizens travel within their own country: no visa.

Money and payment

Rwanda's currency is the Rwandan franc (RWF): you can pay for the stay in francs, by MTN MoMo or Airtel Money, in US dollars or in crypto.

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.

Arrival

Your concierge books the pickup at Kigali International Airport for your flight, at any hour; it is included from three nights at Amahoro and Urugwiro.

  • The largest towns in Rwanda outside Kigali are Rubavu (Gisenyi), Musanze, Nyagatare, Muhanga (Gitarama), Huye (Butare) and Karongi (Kibuye).

The villas

Amahoro has a pool and a cinema room, Urugwiro an infinity pool and gardens, Irebero a spa room and a gym, Ikaze a large garden near the airport. A private chef, a driver and tours can be added through the concierge. Think of a holiday home with a concierge: one house, your group, and help with everything around the stay.
