Airport transfer Kigali

Kigali airport transfers: a name at arrivals, not a queue.

We meet your flight at Kigali International with a name board and drive you to your hotel in the city or straight up-country to Musanze, Akagera or Lake Kivu. Plate number and driver's phone sent 48 hours before you fly.

From the airport to anywhere in Rwanda.

Kigali city hotels are twenty minutes from the airport; Musanze and the gorilla lodges around two and a half hours; Akagera's southern gate about the same. Send us the flight number and the driver waits if it lands late; we can also go straight up-country if you would rather not spend a night in the city.

For a team of eight with bags, the Hiace minibus does the run in one vehicle. For conferences and weddings, the 26-seat Coaster with a luggage trailer.

Or start the rental at the airport.

If you are hiring a car anyway, the transfer is simply the first handover: we bring your rental to arrivals with a full tank, do the paperwork at the kerb, and you drive off — or your driver-guide does. Delivery is free, at the airport or anywhere else in Rwanda.

How do I pay, and how much to reserve?

30% holds the vehicle and lets us buy permits the same day. Pay by card, mobile money or bank transfer. No payment is taken online through the site.

What happens if my flight is delayed?

Send us your flight number when you book. If the flight lands late, your driver waits at arrivals with the name board.

Can the airport transfer go straight up-country?

Yes. Musanze, Akagera, Nyungwe and Lake Kivu are all reachable the same day from the airport. Tell us the lodge and we quote the drive with the same driver.
