About me
Hello, my name is Tereza.
Many years ago, when I first visited Socotra, I immediately knew what I wanted. I discovered a place so unique that I was swept away by a nearly fanatical passion and curiosity, which I combined with the desire to share my knowledge with others. The island's complete isolation, its nature, people, culture, diversity, and raw wilderness captivated me.
For over 15 years, I have been successfully organizing tours, expeditions, as well as individual and private trips. I provide advice about the island of Socotra, share experiences, and offer information about alternative travel and ecotourism. I live on the island, and thanks to strong ties with the local community, in-depth knowledge of the environment, and some understanding of the local language, we gain access to places that are otherwise difficult to reach. You will experience Socotra through the eyes of the locals.
If you're longing for something truly extraordinary, now is the time to explore this corner of the world.
On my organized trips (or private tours), you can expect:
- small group sizes of 6–12 people on organized tours
- private tours with the best possible conditions the island has to offer
- no intermediaries – I co-own a licensed travel agency directly on Socotra: www.socotraexclusivetours.com
- high-quality, comprehensive services on Socotra and a friendly, unique group atmosphere – our local drivers and guides are long-time friends
- visits to places that other companies do not include in their itineraries
- in-depth knowledge of every corner of the island – I strive to offer the best experience for every participant
- delicious local cuisine – fresh meat, fruit, and vegetables daily
- chilled drinks whenever possible – unlimited water and non-alcoholic beverages
- insight into the culture of local families
- travel in reliable and comfortable 4x4 Toyota Land Cruisers – whenever possible, I place a maximum of 3 tourists per car = greater comfort
- all funds from organized and individual trips are reinvested into the local communities directly on Socotra
- part of my mission includes education about sustainable resources and the protection of Socotra’s unique nature. I organize many specific activities and offer tourists exclusive services that respect the values of local culture, history, and the environment. My company operates on ecotourism principles, which are essential for nature conservation and supporting environmental development.
SOKOTRA has been my dream for a long time... but how to make it all happen? Thanks to social media I found Terezka Homolová and Socotra Exclusive tours, who turned our vacation into an unforgettable one... thank you very much... your heart is in the right place... you do your job and do it like TOP PROFESSIONALS... great cars, drivers, food, tents, service, guides, dancing, entertainment... you are the best... SOKOTRA 2025, the second time... I was wondering what and whether my second trip to Socotra would be different... after all, one hears why return somewhere when there are so many beautiful places in the world... Socotra was absolutely unbeatable for the second time thanks to Terezka and her entire Socotra.cz team, the program was acquired, enriched with new routes, new places... we completed a trek to the mountains... with camels, enjoyed great cuisine again and enjoyed swimming in mountain wadis... everything was great again provided...cars, tents, guides, fun...simply Socotra is love...and I thank you very much for being the best
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.......
