Hippo & Crocodile Viewing in Burundi

Hippo & Crocodile Viewing in Burundi

Yesterday, we enjoyed a wonderful day with our clients at Rusizi National Park, and it turned into one of those moments that reminds us why we should be proud of Burundi’s natural attractions.

Our guests experienced one of Burundi’s most unique wildlife activities — hippo and crocodile viewing along the Rusizi River, with stunning views of the wetlands and the famous point where the Rusizi River meets Lake Tanganyika.

The tour was calm, authentic, and full of excitement, and our clients left extremely happy with what they discovered in Burundi.

One of the highlights of the experience was watching hippos resting peacefully in the river.

From the boat, our guests were able to:

  • observe hippos surfacing and going underwater
  • enjoy quiet and natural surroundings
  • experience wildlife without crowds

The encounter felt real and intimate — a reminder that Burundi still offers untouched and authentic nature experiences.


🐊 Crocodile Viewing Along the Rusizi River

As we continued along the riverbanks, we were able to spot crocodiles sunbathing near the water.

Our clients were amazed by:

  • the proximity to wildlife (while staying safe)
  • the beauty of the wetland landscapes
  • the calm and peaceful environment

They shared how rare it is to experience wildlife like this in a destination that remains natural and genuine.


🌊 Where Rusizi River Meets Lake Tanganyika

The tour also included a visit to the iconic location where:

The Rusizi River flows into Lake Tanganyika

Here, our guests enjoyed:

  • panoramic scenic views

It was a moment of reflection, admiration, and pride — both for our clients and our team.
