Helpfulness
10 to 15km north of Bujumbura on the road to the Congo is the Rusizi National Park, where you can see some hippos and crocodiles. There is debate whether there are still some antilopes and the last elephant has been shot and eaten years ago by one of the rebel movements. He was alone anyway. You need your own 4x4 car and then the guide will show you around.
Important: check the security situation before you go, since lawless Congo is just next door and Burundian rebels used to hide in the park. For the moment, I would actually advice against visiting it, but it makes for a nice change out of town when safe.

Nice well laid out town on the shore of the Tanganika Lake. Population estimated around 1mio! Unsafe to go beyond this city due to gangs.
