Getting there

Car

If you are driving from any area in Northern Province, head towards Kigali. Use the main roads connecting to the Nyarutarama area of Kigali. Once you reach Kigali, navigate to the town center. The Wikimedia Rwanda office is located on the 5th floor of a building in the town center area. You should look for signs indicating 'Town Center' buildings. Parking is available in public parking lots around the town center, which may incur a fee.

Public Transportation - Bus

To reach Wikimedia Rwanda via public transportation, take a bus from your location in Northern Province to Kigali. Look for buses heading to 'Kigali Nyabugogo' station. Once you arrive at Nyabugogo, you can either take a motorcycle taxi (moto) or a local bus (known as a 'matatu') to the town center. Inform the driver that you need to get to the town center. After arriving in the town center, locate the building where Wikimedia Rwanda is situated on the 5th floor. A small fee is typically charged for the bus ride, and an additional fare will be required for the moto or matatu.

Motorcycle Taxi (Moto)

If you are already in Kigali after arriving via bus, you can hire a motorcycle taxi (moto) to take you directly to Wikimedia Rwanda. Simply provide the driver with the address: '5th floor town center building'. The fare for a moto ride will depend on your location but typically ranges from 1,000 to 2,000 RWF. It's advisable to agree on the fare before starting your journey.
