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 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 really little. Staying there has deeply engraved itself in my heart and will remain there forever.
Big thanks and admiration to Tereza and Wael, who created a great background, perfect organization of the entire stay, where nothing could be faulted. The background prepared by the drivers, chefs with amazing food and service in difficult conditions - incredible. And the group of people who randomly met was a fantasy.
Thank you very much to everyone with whom I had the honor of experiencing unforgettable days on Socotra from February 18th to 25th, 2025.

A year and a half ago, I had no idea what or where Socotra was. Now, I’ve been there twice, both times with Socotra Exclusive Travel. I chose them again because I wanted to experience the island’s breathtaking nature and the agency’s incredible hospitality once more.
Tereza and her team are amazing—dedicated, caring, and doing everything just to make sure you enjoy your time on the island to the fullest. I want to sincerely thank them once again for both trips, for the new experiences, friendships, and the unforgettable time filled with surprisingly great food, relaxation, and an atmosphere like no other.
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. One of them is the island of Socotra. I was a bit skeptical at first. In the end, however, excited. There are great people behind everything, from the owners of the tour to their staff. This is premium travel and Socotra is one of the last undiscovered paradises.
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 or experiences in person than write about it somewhere and explain why this or that was great or less great :-D
However, the trip to Socotra organized by Socotra exclusive Tours was so interesting that I decided to write a review.
I started planning the trip to Socotra about 8 months before the planned date and I must say that it is about the optimal date. Tereza arranged flights from Abu Dhabi and we were able to get suitable flights to Abu Dhabi and back on the necessary dates in advance. We were not a group but just two, but from Tereza we got the same conditions as for the whole group. At the same time, it must be said that the trip to Socotra is not for those who are used to the comfort of hotels or seaside resorts, but for people with an adventurous or tramp soul, visiting Socotra is an experience of a lifetime.
After arrival, Tereza and I met at the airport and from then on we were taken care of by a guide and driver. I must say that the boys were excellent. On Socotra, they traveled a large part of the island with us and visited a number of very interesting places with us, both in terms of the nature of the island and the life of the islanders. For us, it was probably the best trip yet and we have already traveled a bit.
Socotra Exclusive Tours is a great agency.
Everything was perfectly prepared. Great service. Mrs. Teresa was great.
I recommend !!
Great experience. Perfect place, very nice. Like two hundred years ago :-) No people, no restaurant, just nature. Amazing nature.
Beautiful beaches, beautiful mountains, caves, clear sea, dolphins.
The best holiday
We like to travel and get to know countries without travel cards, but Socotra was an exception and we have no regrets. I still remember this beautiful island where time stopped...
The food was excellent and drinking water and cold drinks were provided throughout. Sleeping in tents was also great. I thank Terezka for giving me the opportunity to visit a local family....an unforgettable experience for me. Socotra is a matter of my heart. Socotra Exclusive Tours is a great tour company.
An unforgettable holiday in every way, if you want to experience a dream week that you will never forget in your life, then this is the right place. Moreover, the service provided by Terka and her team is more than above standard and only this allows the power of the experience, thank you very much and we will not forget it…
