Entry for citizens of the United States

Rwanda's entry rules depend on nationality, not on where you set off; from Tyler, 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. Before you fly, confirm the rule for your passport on the official immigration page; online applications go through Irembo.

Money and payment

The United States uses the US dollar, the currency the villas are quoted in, so there is nothing to convert. 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.

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.
