Small groups : Our group size never exceeds 15 in treks and 25 in camps( except school groups where the number might increase by 8/10 participants).We Like to keep our groups small so that we can provide the best of services and personal care to each participant.
Children friendly : Children choose us all the time. For the last six years more than 300 children (all minors and unaccompanied by their parents ) have trekked and camped with us. Yes we take a pride in giving your little ones experiences in the wilderness, keeping them safe all the while. We NEVER compromise on safety.
Solo woman travellers find us super-comfortable to trek/ camp with. A large portion of our clientele is women, from different fields of occupation and of various age groups. Soma’s Camps, managed and run by a woman, understands the needs of women more than anybody else does. Women on trek will be sharing tents with other women. In case you are the only woman on the trek, you will be given a separate tent.
Safety : Like we told you before , we NEVER compromise on safety, we always make it a point to double check our gears before every program.Our instructors are first aid trained . Apart from the usual inventories, our first aid medical kits are complete with bottled oxygen, pulse oxymeter, and blood pressure monitoring kit.
Tailor made programs : We customise programs for you, if you come in a group. We value your time and money. So we sit down with you, discuss your preferred time,budget, and destinations and then chart out an adventure program for you.
Trekkers wanting solo treks: Want to trek solo with your backpack as light as possible, but want the support in terms of guide, shelter food and safety ? You are in the right place. Give us a call. We are just a phone call away. We will arrange everything for you.
Are we rigid : No. Absolutely not. We do expect you to maintain a basic discipline and have a standard fitness to be able to trek . We do expect you to walk in a pace with which you can carry on with the rest of the group. But, if you get slow on the route, we do not discourage or demotivate you. We help you to reach your destination, even if that means one of our trek assistants slowing down and walking along with you. And unless and until someone is sick or heavily injured or the weather has turned extremely rough, we do not turn you around to the base camp.
Best value: Our prices are not “cheap” because our services aren’t. Our prices are “right” for the services we provide.
