Something about me
My name is Tereza, I have been successfully organizing tours, individual trips and providing advice about the island of Socotra (Socotra) for over 12 years.
Many years ago, when I visited Socotra for the first time, I knew exactly what I wanted. I discovered a place so unique and special that I was consumed by a fanatical need to convince absolutely everyone to have the opportunity to see and experience the same thing. The complete isolation, local nature, people, culture, great diversity and wildness captivated me.
I have been successfully organizing tours, individual and private trips for over 12 years. I provide advice to the island of Socotra. Over the years of traveling to Socotra, I have developed bonds with the local people. Knowing the environment and partly the local language helps me, which opens up places that are otherwise not easily accessible to us during our travels.
If you want to experience something unique, it's high time to go to this area.
Reviews
For the last 20 years, I have been wandering around the world without a travel card, preparing the trip myself and relying on myself. But there are places where you can't go without help...
I don't write reviews. It bothers me that everyone asks for them and I'm a rather introverted person and I would rather share my experiences in person than go into detail somewhere and explain why this or that was great or not so great :-D
However, the trip to Socotra organized by Socotra Exclusive Tours was so interesting that I decided to write a review.....
For me, indicators of beauty are a feeling of wanting to cry, a headache and an unconscious smile. Whether it's when experiencing music, art or the places I visit.
And that's exactly what I experienced during the whole week spent on the island of Socotra. A harsh, mystical place, full of breathtaking nature, beautiful, cheerful, modest, friendly, humble and poor people who can rejoice in the truly little.......

The incredible diversity of the island creates a fascinating picture of the landscape and is so interesting for a European that almost everyone who is lucky enough to see it must find a strong bond with Socotra. The island of Socotra is an attractive place for trekking enthusiasts, and thanks to the pleasant climate, almost everyone can go on a light hike. More athletic tourists can undertake a more demanding trek. For water lovers, an underwater world awaits here, whose amazing species diversity ensures an extraordinary spectacle. You can spot or even swim with dolphins, sharks, see turtles, stingrays and many other beautiful colorful fish living on the coral reefs. Socotra offers something special for everyone and will convince you that the virgin world still exists! Whether you are an enthusiastic traveler, adventurer, botanist, passionate biologist, fisherman or diver, Socotra will reveal to you a part of its prehistoric wealth that you would look for in such abundance and combination elsewhere in the world in vain. The island offers endless kilometers of white coastline, without tourists and without tourist facilities.
"I still can't recover from the experiences of the trip to Socotra and back. Thanks to you, I had a holiday full of surprises, experiences and views of both nature and people. In many ways, I changed my view on life in a Muslim environment. The common people of both Socotra and Yemen are nice, polite and warm-hearted. They may be happier than us who live in beautiful houses, drive luxury cars, have running drinking water and many other conveniences that we are not even aware of."
"So many, beautiful things cannot be processed in the "gebuli" (head) at once. We enjoyed the whole vacation. Beautiful new things. Mountains, beaches, flowers, trees, fish and beautiful goats. (We were sorry to eat them). Also the caves, the wonder and beauty of the details all around. And flying a military cargo plane - great! The people were nice and sleeping enhanced the experience of the environment. Terezka, everything was fine. We are glad to have found you and Socotra.
