Burundi landscape

Discover Burundi

Burundi offers a different side of East Africa, where Lake Tanganyika, rolling green hills, tea country, forests and living cultural traditions come together in a compact destination.

From the lakeside atmosphere of Bujumbura to the forests of Kibira, the wetlands of Rusizi and the cultural heritage of Gitega, Burundi can be explored at a relaxed and personal pace.

At Avalia Adventure, we can combine Burundi with neighbouring East African destinations or create a journey focused entirely on Burundi.
