Osiligilai Maasai Lodge

My husband and I stayed two nights and we really enjoyed everything at the place. The team is amazing, so kind and passionate about taking care of us, like I never saw before. We met the owner, Mr William and he is amazing. He closely supervised his wonderful team and had time to ensure that we were happy. He also explained about lodge and it's contribution to the community. There's set percentage of the lodge's revenue that goes to support a local school and another portion going to Maa Eagles Foundation which supports Maasai girls coming from poor families. In addition the lodge also supports Maasai women who make the necklaces, shanga and other curios. The Maasai women operate the curio shop at the lodge where the proceeds goes to them. We were very impressed by the great work and contribution by Mr. William to his community and we'll be definitely asking our family and friends to join us in supporting him with the school and and the foundation. We will also be returning soon for another pleasurable stay because it's a wonderful place and also help this genuine philanthropic to support his community a 100%!

I recently had the privilege of staying at Osiligilai Lodge with family and friends, for three days and two nights, and was blown away by the hospitality, the the comfort, and the cultural "touch" of this eco-lodge. I was told about Osiligilai by a friend of mine over a year ago and was determined that if I someday returned to the continent, I would try to stay at this unique, one of a kind lodging experience. My group was not disappointed! We arrived with eleven of us in tow, and the young people running the lodge were most gracious hosts. Upon arriving we were greeted with a chorus of singing and dancing in the traditional Maasai way, and then treated to delicious lunch. During our stay there, we were taken on a walk to visit local people to understand their culture, taught about some of the flora and fauna of the area - and what they may be used for, and even shown the proper way to throw a spear for hunting. In addition, some traveled to Mt Kilimanjaro Nat'l Park, and enjoyed a hike along one of the routes that goes to the peak. In addition to the unique cultural experience, the rooms were quite comfortable, the scenery magnificent, and the food was very good. I would recommend anyone who is interested in truly learning about the Maasai specifically and Tanzania in general, to take the once in a lifetime opportunity to stay at Osiligilai. You won't be disappointed!

Amazing! Provides authentic insights into the Maasai culture with engaging guides (shout out to Gabriel) and lovely, friendly staff. Amazing views on Mt Kilimanjaro and the plains. From the heartwarming traditional greeting, to the nature walk where we got super close to zebras and the roasted goat straight from the open fire place - it provided memories that will not fade!

Wow, a really cool experience! So friendly and nice people with a lot of hospitalty. The food was really good and wellmaid. The 2hours walk with our guide Josef was nice, but dont forget sunprotection. The show and dance from The massais was great.
