Traveling to Burundi at this time is right now not recommended because of the high risk of violence, especially against women.

Burundi is a small landlocked country in East Africa. It is surrounded by the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Tanzania and Rwanda in the north.

Tourism in Burundi focuses primarily on the capital which is located on the north-eastern shore of Lake Tanganyika. Alongside the shores of Lake Tanganyika are lakeside beaches, along with tribal villages protecting centuries-old traditions.
