How to fly to Rwanda on your Safari

It’s obvious that a visitor from Europe, America or Asia can’t use ground transport on his Rwanda Safari.This the same case with visits to Uganda because of the long distances involved.l

The only mode of transport to use is by air and therefore one should know the various issues involved in planning a Safari to Rwanda. Our Company with its experience can organize a trip for you which include air ticketing and even cater for your ground movements while in Rwanda.

From London

In case a visitor is based in London and he/she is interested in making a Rwanda Safari, the most direct and convenient way is by flying from London to Nairobi (Kenya), and then connect to Kigali, the capital city of Rwanda. You can use Kenya Airways which has overnight flights to Nairobi departing London Heathrow in the evening. Normally, this flight reaches Nairobi between 6:00am and 7:00am.From here, it connects directly to an onward Kenya Airways flight to Kigali reaching there at around 10:30am.

Alternatively, tourists can decide to use British Airways to fly from London to Nairobi and later connect to Kigali. This plane(British Airways) usually departs from London Heathrow in the morning and lands in Nairobi in the evening at around 20:33.Due to fatigue which you experience while travelling, you cant be able to travel to Kigali this same day but having an overnight at one of Nairobi’s finest hotels can make you relaxed. Wake up in the morning (at around 7:45am) and depart for Kigali reaching at around 8:15am.

While at Kigali Airport, you will be met by our experienced guide who will brief you about the Safari and also stay with you throughout your Rwanda stay. You can ask these guides any questions about Rwanda since they are equipped with all the necessary information about tourism. We can book for you where to stay in advance so as to make you Safari a success.
