Rwanda is open to leisure tourists and visitor arrivals are still growing, with tourism momentum continuing into 2026. Travel is generally doable, but border-adjacent areas near the DRC remain the main security concern, and the rainy season can add flood and landslide disruption. Payment is usually manageable in Kigali and major tourism hubs, though cash is still useful.
