MINISTER’SFOREWORD

DYNAMISM OF THE TOURISM SECTOR LEADS TO PRODUCT INNOVATION

We continue Aiming Higher on training and capacity building so as to bring our service standards at par with the best in the region and the world. With high service standards, we will be in a better position to continue attracting more business and leisure travellers into Burundi.

COMPLIMENTARY TOURISM

BURUNDI IS ON A TRAJECTORY WE HAVE WITNESSED A VIBE IN OUR ECONOMY THAT KEEPS HUMMING AND CONTINUES TO PROVIDE NEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR INVESTORS.

With the launch of this new publication of Beautiful Burundi, this marks a critical stage towards a sustained tourism marketing campaign that we intend on embarking on this year. Our aim is to ensure that Burundi remains on the global tourism radar and continues to grow its tourism product and improving on its service offering.

EVENTS CAPITAL We understand that tourism is a really dynamic service industry that calls for constant innovation. Burundi is taking product innovation seriously and is positioning itself to attracting a large number of local, regional and

international travellers into the country through a series of events.

Blessed with a wonderful climate, we want to take advantage of this favourable all-year round weather to host annual events that will be mainly targeted at various demographics, from the young to the old, we want to make them feel at home through our renowned hospitality.

The events will range from fashion shows and jazz festivals to beach parties where people can bring their friends and families.

Tourism is by far one of the biggest economic engines of major economies in Africa. The industry has a ripple effect on other economic sectors and is one of the biggest employers. Aside from enhancing its tourism product offering, Burundi is working towards playing a complimentary role to the regional tourism industry.

As a constituent member of the East African Community, Burundi will seek out ways of better co-operation with its East African neighbours with a view to working towards a marketing program for East Africa as a single destination.

On behalf of the people of Burundi, I personally invite you to come experience our Burundi.

Hon. Marie Rose NIZIGIYIMANA, Minister of Commerce, Industry, Posts & Tourism REPUBLIC OF BURUNDI

We are also placing a huge emphasis

OUR WELCOMING WARMTH

DIRECTOR’SFOREWORD

BURUNDI WANTS TO PLAY A COMPLIMENTARY ROLE IN REGIONAL TOURISM

We seek Partnerships We also seek to learn and work closely with our counterparts within the East African region and our message to them is simple; Burundi is part and parcel of the East African Community.

BURUNDI IS COMMITTED TO REGIONAL INTEGRATION AND CO-OPERATION BURUNDI WELCOMES REGIONAL INTEGRATION AND EFFORTS THAT SEEK TO MAKE THE EAST AFRICAN REGION A SINGLE TOURISM DESTINATION. WE BELIEVE THIS GOES A LONG WAY INTO ENHANCING REGIONAL INTEGRATION AND CO-OPERATION AS WELL AS ENHACING THE TRAVEL EXPERIENCE OF VISITORS.

I am pleased to welcome you to this exciting new edition of Beautiful Burundi, a publication that offers an insight into our beautiful nation of Burundi.

We have had an exciting past year in the tourism and investment spheres in Burundi and we seek to build on these strengths as we look towards another year through which we seek to fly the flag of Burundi even higher.

NEW TOURISM TEAM I am humbled by the new opportunity given to me and the new team at the National Tourism Office of Burundi, it

is my belief that with sustained efforts towards achieving a common goal and working harmoniously as a team that we will be able to achieve more for Burundi; to attract more tourists, more investments and change the image of the country locally, regionally and internationally.

Our commitment is to work with both the public and private sector in Burundi to first and foremost help re-brand our country as a favorable tourism and investment destination that should be the pride of all Burundians.

REGIONAL CO-OPERATION

We remain committed to working together with our counterparts in the region to ensure that tourism in East Africa is continually developing and adding value to the regional economies and improving the lives of our people while at the same time giving visitors to this region a whole new experience.

It is in this spirit of regional co-operation that saw Burundi take part in the firstever Swahili International Tourism Expo in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania and the year before at the Magical Kenya Travel Expo in Nairobi, Kenya. This clearly underlines our committment to regional integration and having Burundi take an active role towards complimenting the existing tourism products offered by our regional counterparts.

Burundi remains open to investments from across the region, especially in its fast-developing travel, tourism and hospitality sector and we invite our partners in the region to take advantage of these opportunities.

PUBLISHER’SFOREWORD

TRAVELLERS ARE MISSING OUT ON BURUNDI’S CHARM AND HOSPITALITY

Experience Burundi & her people Burundi is a stunningly beautiful country, that has unfortunately been yet to be ‘discovered’ by many a global traveller. It is rather unfortunate that its raw beauty, its warmth and charm and the hospitality of its people is yet to be fully experienced and appreciated.

The fact that Burundi has made giant strides over the past decade is not in question. What remains for now is for the country to continue holding together on a common understanding that the best is yet to come and that collectively, can the country move forward to attain greater heights with the positive contribution of everyone.

The country has continued to witness expansion of its economy with mainly the exports of coffee and tea being some of the biggest drivers of the national economy. However, the country is seeking to diversify its ecnomy and create a vibrant services sector with travel, tourism and hospitality set to take a central role towards advancing the economy of this Central African nation.

GUESTS FROM GOD While the country is not teeming with the diversity of wildlife found in Kenya’s Maasai Mara or have towering mountain peaks like the Kilimanjaro of Tanzania, this beautiful country has a secret treasure that is yet to be fully discovered and appreciated by the outside world –

8 I BEAUTIFUL BURUNDI

its people.

The Burundian people are such a warm and hospitable people. To them, they consider visitors as guests from God and because of this attitude, they value visitors. They are open-minded and are not afraid to speak their mind. And when they smile and laugh, you know it comes from the bowels of their hearts.

Aside from this, the people of Burundi

boast an amazing cultural heritage that is begging to be experienced.

It is now an open secret that the famous Burundi royal drummers that have awed the world and captured the hearts and minds of anyone that has had the privilege of seeing them perform is deeply rooted in the traditional Kirundi culture.

This is the reason why this experience

needs to be explored further; but to do this, one needs to come to Burundi to experience it all for themselves.

The geographical position of this country makes it easier to move in and out. Its relative small size also makes it very easy for one to travel from one region to another. The road network in Burundi is surprisingly good as all regions are linked to Bujumbura with a tarmac road.

OUR BEAUTIFUL BURUNDI The views of the Burundian countryside are mindsketching.

The flora and fauna found within this country is also amazingly diverse as most of the countryside and the national parks have remained virtually untouched for many years.

Traveling to Burundi, whether for business, leisure or just to feed a curiosity would, in my honest opinion, be one of the most eye-opening travels one would ever make. I promise you, a visit to this destination will most definitely change the perception of one’s view of not only Burundi and Burundians, but the world too.

It is only by visiting Burundi that the false perceptions that people have harbored for many years and the negative myths that people tend to believe and spread about Burundi would change – forever.

And once you visit, it is upon you and every other traveler who has experienced the beauty of this Burundi and its people to inform the world of what Burundi has to offer so that the world can also get to experience our Burundi; our Beautiful Burundi.

Come on a journey of discovery, and tell the world of your Burundi experience.

TOURISMPRODUCTS

BURUNDI WANTS TO DEVELOP NEW TOURISM PRODUCTS

Burundi seeks to tap MICE & golf tourism The country is currently hosting some major international organizations such as the United Nations and numerous non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and is looking at attracting more regional and international conferences and trade exhibitions to Burundi.

BURUNDI IS KEEN ON DEVELOPING NICHE PRODUCTS WITH PRIVATE INVESTORS AS BURUNDI IS WORKING ON GROWING ITS TOURISM PRODUCT OFFERING, THE COUNTRY IS ALSO LOOKING AT WORKING WITH THE PRIVATE SECTOR TO DEVELOP SOME NICHE TOURISM PRODUCTS THAT WILL ENHANCE ITS TOURISM POTENTIAL TO ATTRACT BOTH BUSINESS AND LEISURE TRAVELERS INTO THE COUNTRY.

Under its newly adopted tourism strategy master plan, Burundi is looking at attracting travelers and investors into three key sub-sectors namely, golf tourism, conference tourism and marine tourism.

GOLF RESORT The Government of Burundi (GoB) is looking at attracting investors into these three sub-sectors under a public-private partnership. The government will in this respect facilitate the establishment of businesses in Burundi that are mainly focused in investing in these three subsectors.

Other facilities that the GoB intends to extend to investors include provision of land to set up the golf course and a convention center in Bujumbura.

Investors are expected to establish an 18-hole championship golf resort near the scenic lake region of Kirundo in northern Burundi. Currently, Burundi has only a nine-hole golf course in Bujumbura and is looking at tapping into the growing golf market.

CONFERENCE TOURISM Conference tourism is one of the biggest drivers of business and leisure tourism in any destination.

Currently, most meetings are held in small conference rooms and halls in major hotels across the capital Bujumbura.

The Hotel Club du Lac Tanganyika is one of the major venues hosting local, regional and international meetings.

The hotel has two conference centers with a capacity of hosting 200 delegates and has recently unveiled a 500 seater conference hall.

BUJUMBURA INTERNATIONAL CONVENTION CENTER The proposed Bujumbura International Convention Center (BICC) is expected to have a main conference hall with a capacity of hosting up to 2,000 delegates. The proposed BICC is also expected to have smaller meeting rooms and conference halls as well as a fivestar resort.

The GoB has already identified a suitable site on the shores of the Lake Tanganyika just south-east of the city of Bujumbura. Other facilities that will be available is the new Bujumbura Marina.

TRADESHOWS

BURUNDI EMBARKS ON CHARM OFFENSIVE TO HELP BOOST ITS IMAGE

Burundi on a charm offensive Burundi has truly turned the corner and is looking at making greater strides towards enhancing its image abroad while at the same time improving on its service and product offering abroad.

With a backdrop of having performed fantastically well at various tourism meets in Europe and across the region, Burundi is set to undertake another charm offensive that is meant to boulster its image in the region, but also help it attract much needed investments and skilled professionals to drive forward its economy to greater heights.

This is inspite of a presidential election in 2015 that is set to place Burundi in the map of stable democracies in the region.

INTERNATIONAL TOURISM FAIRS This year, Burundi opted to skip the International Tourism Bourse (ITB) in Berlin, Germany in favour of attending the Guangzhou International Travel Fair (GITF) 2015 held in the city of Guangzahou, China. The show attracted a number of other international participants from across Asia, Africa and the Americas.

Again, Burundi showcased its unique tourism products to an enthusiastic Chinese audience that was eager to learn more about Burundi, its tourism attractions and moreso, investment opportunities and access

to the neighbouring markets of eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and south-western Tanzania.

Aside from this trade fair, Burundi will be making its impact felt in Europe at a travel, tourism and hospitality trade show in Stuttgart, Germany. This is

meant to help the country to contninue attracting a growing German market that has over the last few years seen the number of tourists from Germany into the country continue to rise.

The country will also for be showcasing its tourism and investment potential regionally by confirming its participation at the INDABA tourism fair in Durban, South Africa, This will be the first time that Burundi will be exhibiting at the fair.

Closer home, the country’s National Tourism Office has shown an interest in making a second appearance at the Magical Kenya Travel Expo to be hosted in the coastal city of Mombasa, Kenya.

Burundi first participated in the expo in 2013.

Burundi also made an appearance at the first-ever Swahili International Tourism Expo in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania in 2014.

This according to the director general at the National Tourism Office of Burundi is in a bid to not only show solidality with its regional neighbours and partners, but is also meant to tap into the vast markets offered in these countries as well as to

take valuable lessons from its neighbours to help grow its fledgling tourism industry.

CULTURAL FESTIVAL Aside from these, Burundi hopes to this year attract and draw regional tourism players and stakeholders by hosting them in Bujumbura for a two-day festival that is meant to not only showcase its tourism products, but also help forge cultural ties between itself and other cultures from across African.

The show will be hosted annually in the Burundian capital of Bujumbura with the sole purpose of celebrating the very best of African cultural traditions, art, song and dance.

The event will be carry a unique theme every year and will also include workshops and seminars on African culture and traditions.
