Over the past six months, despite several obstacles, we have made significant progress in expanding and beautifying our campsite. We will have soon 4 bungalows (family tents) which will be ready with a comfortable tent house shower and toilet inside. And what else?There will be a top-viewed bar on the top of our container kitchen.

A lot of thought is given to the comfort of visitors and they appreciate it. There are many very positive reviews about our vacation spot. We also get a lot of very good suggestions on how to improve our infrastructure.

I should be added - many thanks to Zebra Guesthouse for good partnership and support in my business! Also, Thank you Indra Lielkaja for creating my website and for being there with advice and understanding!

You can see more photos in our photo gallery.

You are always welcome at our campsite! Here you will be warmly welcomed, accommodated and knowledgeable guides will show you the surroundings and nice walking trails where you can relax from the busy workday.

Exchange of experience in Europe

19 Sep, 2023, No comments

The rainy season, when there are far fewer tourists, gives me the opportunity to go to Europe for an exchange of experiences. This time it is GREEN FIELDS - DURBUY (https://en.durbuygreenfields.com/) in Belgium and Jenacamping in Germany (http://www.jenacamping.de/).

I have my own Dreams and Goals that I am going to achieve, but I always have to use the opportunity to learn something new. It is important to understand the needs and wishes of European customers in order to improve my ECO camping.

I'm on my way to fulfilling my dream!

Our cooperation partners

Brigitte Decadt is Belgian and the co-owner of "Zebra Guesthouse" and co- founder of Southern Stars Tour (SST).

Brigitte, or ‘Bibi’, discovered Ethiopia some 5 year ago, while volunteering in the attractive green city of Hawassa. ‘Bibi’ fell in love with unique Ethiopia and keeps being engaged with, and passionate about Ethiopia.

Wonde and Brigitte - together they run Zebra Guesthouse in Hawassa city, under the motto - "open to the world".

The location of Zebra Guesthouse is both breathtaking and practical: Located just near Lake ‘Fikker Haik’ and near to all commodities such as banks for pinning, markets, shops, police office, etc.

In the rooms and in the garden, Zebra Guesthouse brings together people from all over the world, all with their own stories and backgrounds: backpackers, business people, volunteers, visiting students and academics, artists, travelling families! Our eco campsite project is our second project in Arbaminch with the slogan of “ Keep it simple with care of Environment “.

Together they are have explored the country from North to South and from West to East. They now offer personalised as well as ‘active’ trips all over the country, looking in particular for authenticity and visiting hot spots as well as exploring remote areas, not visited by the many regular tour operators. They strive to build a strong attractive tandem, the Zebra guesthouse and SST complementing each other.
