Nestled within the Great Rift Valley, Burundi is an awe-inspiring landlocked country in East Africa, encompassing a rich and dynamic tapestry of history dating back over 500 years, from being an independent kingdom, through German and Belgian colonial rule, to its current status as a democratic republic. Its diverse population includes the Hutu, Tutsi and the Twa ethnic groups, and despite facing significant challenges, including conflict and political turmoil, the resilient spirit of the Burundian people prevails still today.

Although primarily reliant on a rudimentary farming economy and grappling with rapid population growth and density, Burundi offers an invaluable portal into the realities and wonders of East African life. Whether understanding its complex historical narratives or simply immersing oneself in the everyday lives of local communities, a visit to Burundi offers a profound and life-changing experience.
