Beautiful sands, awesome guide
I thoroughly enjoyed every part of this experience, from the road trip and getting to talk to our super knowledgeable and friendly guide Qais, to the wadi where we got to take a dip in the clear waters and get my feet exfoliated by little fishies (optional but I recommend), to my favourite part of going to the desert sands and just absorbing the beauty of it at sunset

Should be 5⭐️+++ Genuinely the Best Tour Guide in Muscat!!!
Said messaged well in advance of the trip, to offer advice related to this tour or any other enquiries - and after getting to know him, this didn’t surprise me at all. An absolute gentleman who made our trip(s) fantastic.
Also, I had booked an evening city tour (through Viator) with a different company, the night prior to this trip. They cancelled a couple of hours prior and when I explained this to Said (due to his offer above), he stepped in at the 11th hour and took my wife and I on an additional tour at a very competitive price, with additional stops.
In terms of the trip we booked, it ticked all the boxes we were after, and even an additional stop at the perfume factory (following a chat about it the night prior), with no additional charge.
He also provided plenty of cold water, and his Land Cruiser was very comfortable throughout both trips. He knew all the photo spots to go too and even took pictures of my wife and I.
Following the trip, he also sent a list of restaurants and places of interest that worked within our schedule, including in Jabal Akhdar where we were going the next day.
I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better host while in Muscat.

Best experience ever....
Best experience ever. Nizwa is full of culture and lots to see. The views at Jebel Akhdar were immaculate, our driver Muhammad knew all the best spots for good pictures. We also had fresh rose season so made the experience even better. Our driver also took us to see the hundreds of thousands of date palms which was so beautiful to see! Pictures do not do justice at all

A little paradise on Earth!
We had an incredible time hiking through the valley and then swimming along the natural pools till we reach an amazing cave. Our guide Mohammed took very good care of all of us and was so nice and friendly. Thanks for a wonderful day we’ll always treasure in our memories! Alhamdulillah!

Great way to see Oman outside Muscat
A brilliant day trip to Nizwa souq & fort plus Jabal Akhdar mountains and Barkat Al Muz old village.
A great way to see other parts of Oman away from Muscat. Our guide Khalid helped to make the day, very knowledgable and helpful throughout. Great to do things at our own pace.
Would definitely recommend the trip and Khalid.

A fascinating tour of Muscat and its surrounding areas.
We were very fortunate to have Saif as our guide who provided us with a fascinating and in depth tour of Muscat. We visited Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, The Opera House, Old Muscat, a souk and the Barr Al Jissah resort. Saif was very client focused, spoke flawless English and introduced us to Omani history and touching on many aspects of its culture - would highly recommend.

A Fabulous Day trip from Muscat
I had the most amazing tour today with Muhammed Aldighaishi. There were just 3 of us on the tour, and his enthusiasm shon through from the moment he picked us up. He gave us full information on what the itinerary was. Our first stop was Nizwa Souq, seeing and tasting the different dates, and smelling Francansence. Nizwa Fort showing all the different rooms and views. Lunch in Nizwa was delicious, followed by Jabreen Castle and finally Bahla Fort
A truelly memorable day

Fabulous day
Excellent trip despite the rough seas. The snorkelling was good (although sad to see so much dead coral) and wonderful to see so many turtles. A lovely lunch provided with a pleasant shaded area to relax in. Snacks also provided (dates and nuts, fruits) and plenty of water.

This is a great trip, a...
This is a great trip, a long day but well worth it. It was estimated to be 10 hours but was actually 12 hours. This was a small group tour, only 12 people, but we travelled in 3 4x4s. Our driver and guide, Abdul Hamid, was lovely and very knowledgeable. Nizwa Fort is amazing, one could spend a lot longer there than we had. Travelling to the mountains and "grand canyon" was amazing. A very good lunch was included in the price. I thoroughly recommend this trip.

Fantastic Tour with Mak to Nizwa and the mountains
It was such a lovely tour with Muqimi (Mak) to Nizwa and the mountains. We had a leisurely time browsing and shopping at the Nizwa Souq, then a walk down history through Nizwa Fort. Followed by a sumptuous lunch (included) - got to taste camel curry - and then to the mountains. I particularly enjoyed the hike from one village to another - the views were breathtaking-taking and refreshing. The day ended with a climb up an abandoned village to watch the sunset at the peak. The tour was leisurely with Mak and a small group (just 3 of us) and we all got plenty of information sharing and laughter from Mak. He also whisked us around from place to place safely and very comfortably in a 4WD. This is a tour not to be missed!!

Highly recommend
Very timely pick up, clean bus, and a great tour guide, Muhannad. The wadi was beautiful. The hike itself was easy, a couple narrow and slippery spots but that was fine. Once you get to the swimming portion, it can be challenging at times because of very slippery and sharp rocks, and some areas are pretty deep. I think water shoes are a MUST. There are some for sale or rent right outside the entrance. If you are not a 100% confident with your swimming, rent a life jacket. Because even as an avid swimmer I got tired in some sections without a life jacket. Gorgeous views and great adventure. The Bimmah sinkhole after was okay but it was hard to compare it to the beauty of the wadi. Highly recommend this tour

Great half day trip
Great half day of snorkelling.
The whole trip was about four hours from leaving Seeb Harbour. 30 minute fast speedboat ride to 1st snorkelling point, snorkelling from the boat.
We saw lots of turtles, coral and fish, sea was warm and calm, good visibility.
.Next stop was to an island nearby where you could walk to the beach from the boat and either sit, swim, snorkel or walk.
We then got back to Harbour at 5:30 as the Sun was setting.
There were plenty of drinks and snacks on the boat and Captain Happy Flower was excellent.
