FAQs about flying to Kigali
Best Time to Fly to Kigali, Rwanda
Temperature-wise, there isn’t much to choose from. Midday highs are consistently around 82F, 365 days of the year, meaning that the majority of visitors schedule their trips to coincide with special events rather than the weather. Due to the city’s reputation as a culinary hotspot, the AIC International Food Fair is well worth a visit. Held in May, this popular annual event showcases world cuisines in one spot, and is held on rotation at one of the city’s embassies. July sees the city rocking to the sounds of live music, as the Kigali-Up festival takes over the Amahoro Stadium and exposes spectators to the sounds of rock, pop and funk. October sees the party continue in the shape of the Mutzig Beerfest at the Gikondo Fair Grounds, while smaller cultural events are held throughout the year.
Getting around Kigali, Rwanda
Cars can be rented at the airport, but the downtown can easily be navigated on foot. Public transport is widespread, but can be unreliable. Private rental taxi companies are also an option.
