Burundi is East Africa's best-kept secret, a mountainous jewel wedged between the Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda, and Tanzania. This landlocked nation may be one of the world's smallest countries, but it packs extraordinary biodiversity, ancient kingdoms, and some of the planet's finest tea into its compact borders. Known as the "Heart of Africa" for its central location, Burundi offers intrepid travelers pristine national parks, sacred drumming traditions, and a resilient culture shaped by both triumph and turbulence.
