Among the cities of Eastern Province in Saudi Arabia: Dammam, Al Hufuf, Hafar Al-Batin, Al Jubayl and Khobar. Dammam, with about 1,253,000 inhabitants, is the largest city.

Getting to Kigali from Eastern Province

Figures on this page start from Dammam, the largest city of Eastern Province.

About 3,820 km separate Dammam from Kigali, as the crow flies. The clock in Dammam is one hour ahead of Kigali's.

The international airports of Eastern Province are King Fahd International Airport (DMM), Al-Ahsa International Airport (HOF) and Qaisumah–Hafar Al-Batin International Airport (AQI).

From Dammam, most travellers connect through Doha (Qatar Airways), Cairo (EgyptAir) or Addis Ababa (Ethiopian Airlines); your concierge plans the connection.

Entry for citizens of Saudi Arabia

Rwanda's entry rules depend on nationality, not on where you set off; from Eastern Province, citizens of Saudi Arabia follow this one. 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. We link the official immigration page below; Irembo is where online applications are made.

Money and payment

Saudi Arabia's currency is the Saudi riyal (SAR). Stays are quoted in US dollars, and you can pay in USD, in Rwandan francs, by MTN MoMo or Airtel Money, or in crypto such as USDT or Bitcoin. 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.

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.
