Set up by the not for profit Africa Amini Alama charity, Africa Amini Maasai Lodge aims to better introduce visitors to Tanzania to the unique culture of the Maasai people while also helping to sustain and develop the local Maasai community.

Run by the Maasai and with all profits going to the local Maasai community for social projects, Africa Amini Maasai Lodge blends western luxury accommodation with traditional Maasai food, architecture, and activities.

The sustainable bungalows have solar-powered light and hot water. Each is equipped with a side table, wardrobe, and Maasai-style seating. The modern bathroom includes a rain shower and flushing toilet.

Breakfast is served every morning and for lunch and dinner, the lodge prepares home cooked international and traditional Swahili cuisine, as well as Maasai specialties using fresh, organic ingredients grown on-site.

The true highlight of your stay at Africa Amini Maasai Lodge will be your chance to participate in a variety of cultural activities including spear throwing competitions, guided nature walks to learn about traditional Maasai medicine, dance performances, handicraft lessons, traditional cooking, and much more.

For those wishing to see Africa’s highest mountain, Mt. Kilimanjaro, Africa Amini Life’s location makes it one of the best places in Tanzania to take in Kili’s majesty. Dawn wake-up calls (with much-needed coffee or tea) can be arranged to ensure you have your chance to see the Roof of Africa while the skies are clear.
