This place is brilliant and an adventure into itself, offering what are probably the best views of Kili in Tanzania. But let me start at the beginning... We had gone from Dar to Moshi by bus immediately after our plane landed, which meant that by the time we stood under the Moshi sun we were exhausted, verging on delirious. Phillip... More

Kili View Lodge is a very special place. Sitting high (approx 2000 meters) with a spectacular view of the lofty Mt. Kilimanjaro and the lush valley below, it is a rustic experience that should not be missed. Phillip has built this serene place of cabins with grass thatched roofs nestled into the hill about the main dining lodge. The food... More

A group of volunteers spent a weekend with Mount Kilimanjaro View Lodge in December and it was one of the best weekend's we've had in Tanzania so far. Everything was taken care of for us, transportation, guide, food, accommodation, and cultural experiences. We spent Saturday hiking to Marangu Waterfalls with a very informative guide who took us to a Chagga... More

We would be on the road all night long from home to Tanzania. So we needed a nice place to relax before starting to discover Tanzania. Kilimanjaro View Lodge turned out to be the right choice from the first moment with the hospitality of the team and the beautiful surrounding. After the holiday we wished we could spare more days...

This lodge is not just a place to sleep, it is an experience of a life time. It is very hard to describe the feelings I have for these people but I will try. The minute we arrived at this lodge we felt very special! The staff welcomes guests with traditional music and fresh flowers. I will never forget the... More

Every moment of our stay at the Kiliview Lodge felt as though we were honored guests of a friend’s home. We are students and had lived in East Africa for 3.5 months before visiting this lodge, and had seen many of the lodges of this region, and this was by far the most unique, welcoming and homey one that we...

This is an ultimate experience with the possibility of a very intense contact to the local chagga tribe. I had some wonderful days with the very friendly owner and stuff. It was hard for me to leave this place. You can undertake beautyful walks through rain forest, talk with local people, visit a primary school, which left a very deep... More

Last year I traveled with a good friend and other couple to Tanzania for a three-week vacation and stayed at the Mount Kilimanjaro View Lodge. The safari the Tour Operator arranged was exciting and adventurous, and the visit to Zanzibar relaxing, informative, and educational, but the highlight of our trip was our stay at MKVL. Of all the places I... More

A stay with a nice local flavor. Situated on a high perch with panoramic views of the surrounding countryside and a great view of Mt Kilimanjaro. Good food without being overly fancy. The ride up to the lodge in itself is also a fun four wheel drive trip. Loved our stay ..giving us a chance to meet some local villagers.... More
