Manchester and Kigali

Manchester is a city of about 110,000 people in New Hampshire, the United States. In the same region as Manchester: Portsmouth.

Getting to Kigali from Manchester

About 11,090 km separate Manchester from Kigali, as the crow flies. The time difference changes with the seasons: in January Manchester is seven hours behind Kigali, in July six hours behind Kigali.

From Manchester, most travellers connect through London Heathrow (RwandAir), Paris CDG (RwandAir) or Brussels (Brussels Airlines); your concierge plans the connection.

Entry for citizens of the United States

Rwanda's entry rules depend on nationality, not on where you set off; from Manchester, 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. The official source is Rwanda's Directorate General of Immigration and Emigration; apply online on Irembo if you need a visa before travelling.

Money and payment

The United States's US dollar is also the currency of the villa rates; other methods include RWF, MTN MoMo, Airtel Money and crypto. Payment details come only from the concierge, after your 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.
