About me
Socotra Exclusive Tours is a licensed local travel agency registered with the Yemeni Ministry of Tourism on Socotra. Our goal is to show visitors the island as we know and love it – authentic, wild and unique.
We are not a large travel agency or an anonymous booking portal. Behind Socotra Exclusive Tours are only two people – Tereza and Wael – who are personally involved in each tour.
Tereza takes care of communication with clients, reservations, travel organization and is also personally present as an escort for selected groups. Wael, a native Socotra resident, coordinates the entire process of tours directly on the island – from drivers and local guides to solving all the details during the trip. Thanks to this, we have everything under control and can flexibly respond to the needs of our guests.
As natives and people who have lived on Socotra for a long time, we know every corner of the island. We will be happy to take you not only to well-known places, but also to places where ordinary visitors often do not get to. We prepare each program individually to match your ideas, pace and travel style.
Travel with respect
We believe that tourism should benefit not only visitors, but also local residents and nature. That is why we base our work on the principles of responsible and sustainable travel.
We cooperate with local drivers, guides and communities, support the local economy and ensure the protection of Socotra's unique nature. We respect local traditions and strive to ensure that each tour has a positive impact on the island and its inhabitants.
Quality over quantity
We do not focus on large groups or mass tourism. We prefer smaller groups and an individual approach, thanks to which we can fully devote ourselves to each guest.
Our goal is to offer top-notch organized tours, reliable service, experienced local guides and unforgettable experiences at fair prices.
Whether you are traveling alone, with friends, family or looking for a partner to organize group tours, we will do everything to make your trip to Socotra exceptional.
We look forward to welcoming you to one of the most beautiful and least affected islands in the world.
