Ruvubu National Park

Few places concentrate wild Africa like Ruvubu National Park, in Eastern Burundi, Burundi. It's a landscape managed for one thing — wildlife — which means game drives here are the real, unfenced thing: sightings unfold on the animals' terms, and that's exactly the point.

It sits within one of Africa's great travel countries — Burundi: East Africa's quiet corner. Most travelers weave Ruvubu National Park into a longer route taking in Lake Tanganyika, Kibira forest and Gishora drummers.

The operators on SafariSuite run Ruvubu National Park regularly and price it from their live rate sheets — park fees, seasonal lodge rates and transfers included — so any itinerary you see here reflects what the trip actually costs.
