Rwanda is located in East Africa, to the east of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, at the co-ordinates 2°00′S 30°0′E.

At 26,338 square kilometers, Rwanda is the world’s 149th-largest country. The entire country is at a high altitude: the lowest point is the Rusizi River at 950 meters above sea level.

Rwanda is located in Central/Eastern Africa, and is bordered by the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the west, Uganda to the north, Tanzania to the east, and Burundi to the south. It lies a few degrees south of the equator and is landlocked. The capital, Kigali, is located near the center of Rwanda.

Rwanda has a temperate tropical highland climate, with lower temperatures than are typical for equatorial countries due to its high elevation. Kigali, in the center of the country, has a typical daily temperature range between 12 °C and 27 °C, with little variation through the year. There are some temperature variations across the country; the mountainous west and north are generally cooler than the lower-lying east.

There are two rainy seasons in the year. The first runs from February to June and the second from September to December. These are separated by two dry seasons: the major one from June to September, during which there is often no rain at all, and a shorter and less severe one from December to February. Rainfall varies geographically, with the west and northwest of the country receiving more precipitation annually than the east and southeast.

The official currency of Rwanda is Rwandan franc (Frw), 1 Dollar = 1,278.81 Frw as the average value. Payment for major items, such as accommodation and air tickets can be done either in Rwandan francs or Dollars. For smaller purchases, the local currency is usually required.

There is also limited acceptance of international credit cards at larger establishments, with VISA being the most widely accepted. It is therefore advisable to bring at least part of money for expenses in dollars or euro in cash.

Banks are open Monday-Sunday from 8:00 am to 5:00pm.
