Rusizi National Park at the mouth of the Rusizi River is one of Central Africa's best wildlife viewing spots. Boat safaris navigate through papyrus channels where pods of hippos — sometimes 50+ animals — surface and submerge in the warm lake waters. Nile crocodiles bask on the banks, and the birdlife is extraordinary — pelicans, herons, kingfishers, and crowned cranes.
