About Somak Travel

Who is Somak Travel?

Somak Travel is the air-only branch of Somak Safaris, a leading tour operator to East Africa. We are consolidators for a number of airlines, and also possess solid business relationships with a number of major entities in the travel industry. We also work extensively with a number of church and missionary organizations, and have obtained low-cost airfares for them to a variety of international destinations.

What airlines do you deal with?

All major airlines and smaller carriers if necessary.

Why are your fares so low?

Our mission statement has always been to provide the best possible service at the best possible price to our clients. A good business deal is one where both the customer and the merchant feel happy with the transaction. We do not like to make a quick buck off our customers, but like to develop long-term business relationships with people.

What if the city I want to travel to cannot be found?
No problem. All cities cannot be listed for various reasons, and also some airlines do not like to have their fares sold on the Internet by other parties. We offer low airfares to cities throughout the African continent, as well as Latin America, Europe, the South Pacific, and Asia. Just send an email to fares@somaktravel.com with your cities & dates of travel, and someone will respond promptly.

What is the best way to pay?
If you are booking online, credit card is great. For our specials, we require payment by check or money order. You can buy specials with your credit card, but there will be a service charge due to merchant fees incurred.

Can I call you?
Of course. But the best way for us to be reached is via email. Just email us with the city you are traveling from and your destination city, the preferred dates of travel, and airline preferences if you have any. We will respond with your options, and we can go from there.
