Ethiopian Quadrants runs tours for those travellers who want that little
bit more – not simply good service but also insights into the culture
and customs of the countries they visit.
In addition to running tours on
the more popular tourist circuits, such as the Historic Route, Simien
Mountain Trekking, the Rift Valley and Bale Mountains, and the Omo
Valley, we can organise tours off the beaten track, in the Afar Region,
Gambella, the west bank of the Omo, and Beni Shangul Gumuz.
We also
provide a variety of specialist tours, in ornithology, flowers and
plants, geology, and anthropology, and can set up study tours in the
discipline of your choice, from Art to Zoology, linking up with
Ethiopian institutions and associations, specialists and experts.
All of
our tours can be tailored to meet our clients’ special interests, and
are specially planned to make the visitor less of a consumer and more of
a participant in Ethiopian life, culture and custom. Ethiopian Quadrants
is committed to ensuring that host communities benefit as much as
possible from tourism receipts, and to exploring ways whereby benefits
can be maximised.
Generally, we believe in corporate responsibility, we
support various local development initiatives in different areas of the
country, sponsor a football team here in Addis Ababa, and assist a
number of children with school fees and other expenses. We can also help
with filming in Ethiopia, Tony Hickey the General Manager has worked
with more than 80 film crews here and has himself produced and directed
documentaries.

Essque Zalu Zanzibar - Tanzania
Essque Zalu Zanzibar is a brand new 5 star boutique resort, that opened
its doors for business on 15th June 2011 and located on Zanzibar’s
spectacular north-eastern coastline, Nungwi. We are the only resort on
the island to be part of the prestigious Preferred Boutique™ (Preferred
Hotels Group) assuring our guests of 5 star superior quality and
consistent service levels.
Nestled in a natural cove on the north east coast, Essque Zalu Zanzibar combines contemporary luxury with a real sense of place. This boutique hotel has the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean to one side and lush green forest to the other, with just a hint of spice in the warm and fragrant tropical air.
Built in the local style to blend into the landscape, the thatched roofs reflect the modern African feel. Our minimalist décor enhances the sense that luxury is no longer just about material wealth, but has more to do with time and choice.
Already a member of the prestigious Preferred Boutique™ Collection group, the hotel has just 40 suites and 9 three and four-bedroom villas, making it easy for staff to offer a bespoke and personalised service to their guests. And forget arduous hotel check-ins; any formalities will be completed at guests’ leisure in the comfort of their own suite or villa. Each suite has a large en-suite master bedroom, a generous lounge and outside terrace or balcony overlooking the gardens, pool or ocean while each villa also has its own private pool and massage room as well as dining facilities where guests can prepare their own meals, or ‘dial a chef’ to create an in-villa gastronomic masterpiece.
There are three distinctive restaurants which include The Market Kitchen which will serve fresh local organic produce, the A La Carte restaurant with superb fine dining, and the more relaxed Jetty, where guests can dine al fresco on the shoreline of the Indian Ocean and enjoy an Middle Eastern menu theme.
Parents who need a little ‘me-time’ will be reassured to know they will be leaving their offspring in a safe, fun and creative environment. Essque has employed kid’s club experts Petit Vip (www.petitvip.com) to train their own co-ordinators and to manage the kids club in VIP style.
A beautiful Spa has its emphasis on spiritual re-alignment and revitalisation and features the signature Kniepp Walk; an alternating flow of warm and cold water which stimulates the circulation and energy flows of the body to great effect.
In line with our commitment to the local community, Essque is delighted to promote local artistic talent at the in-hotel Art Gallery which will include paintings, sculptures, photographs and glassworks from local, regional and international artists. Zanzibar’s based 'unknowns' and 'established' local artists are to be showcased regularly at this art gallery.
What we offer at Essque Zalu Zanzibar, is the opportunity for our respected guests to feel the creativity and inspiration that emanates from all the corners of the hotel and further to enjoy the exhilarating ambience our hotel has to offer. Please look us up on Tripadvisor as well where we are on number 1 position for hotels in Nungwi and also visit www.essquehotels.comfor more information on this boutique gem nestling on the exotic spice island of Zanzibar.
