Bujumbura is home to the second deepest lake in the world, Lake Tanganyika, and is the largest African lake by depth, after Lake Baikal in Russia. Its maximum depth is 1471 meters.

The economic capital of Burundi located very close to Lake Tanganyika, get there you feel good wind coming from the Lake, you eat food that is very delicious including Mukéké that is nowhere to be found. it is a large area that is quite large and well placed on the side of local or international investors and entrepreneurs.

I travel a lot but this Bujumbura city day-tour with Hypolit was something of the best day-tours that I ever did. I stayed in Kigali and flew for a day tour to Bujumbura. I booked this tour on Internet and to pay it in advance to a German bank account. It was not cheap, from a local view even expensive. Yet, everything was perfect. The airport pick-up was perfect and the whole tour which lasted until 17.00, was a perfect day. Especially mentioned was the boat trip on the river, the lunch on a fantastic place (BoraBoar Beach), market visits, fishing village and everything. Hypolit was such a friendly and smiling person, professional and very flexible to all my request. This guy i would select for any other tours in the future. Not to forget the driver. Good car and he drove very professional in a extremly hectic area with a lot of dirty streets. I felt me very secured by his driving style. Was the best day for my week stay in this area.
