Entry for citizens of the United States
Entry rules follow your passport, not your city, so the rule for Modesto is the rule for citizens of the United States. 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
No exchange needed: the United States uses the US dollar, and so do the villa rates. Payment details come only from the concierge, after your dates are confirmed.
