Entry for citizens of the United States
Rwanda's entry rules depend on nationality, not on where you set off; from Waterbury, citizens of the United States 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. 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
The United States uses the US dollar, the currency the villas are quoted in, so there is nothing to convert. Details are shared by the concierge alone, in writing, once the dates are confirmed.
Cash is also accepted on arrival at the villa, in US dollars or Rwandan francs, with a written receipt from the concierge.
