      A Home Away From Home in Tanzania "Kigelia Wildlife Lodge felt more like a home away from home than just a lodge. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the communal spaces encouraged socializing with other travelers. We loved the self-catering options, which allowed us to cook at our own pace. The lodge's location was perfect for exploring the area. We highly recommend a day trip to Arusha town and a visit to the Shanga glass-blowing workshop. Kigelia Wildlife Lodge exceeded our expectations and made our Tanzanian adventure truly special."
