What are people saying about Muscat

An amazing excursion... SO worth it!
The entire trip was like something out of a dream! I had an amazing time. Mahmood (the guide) was great and very "easy on the eyes" if you know what I mean ladies! However, I must warn others... this hike was VERY advanced and does requires some level of physical fitness to complete. Also no matter how great of a swimmer you are, I still recommend the life vest when swimming to the cave. The meal after the excursion was so delicious and you WILL work up an appetite prior to getting to the restaurant. The sinkhole was beautiful also! This trip was so worth it and I am so happy I booked it.

An Amazing Experience with Khalid – Highly Recommended! 🇴🇲✨
Our trip with Khalid was literally amazing from beginning to end! He is such a kind, friendly, and professional guide, and he made our experience in Muscat truly unforgettable.
We visited the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, the Royal Opera House Muscat, Al Alam Palace, several beautiful forts and historical monuments, and of course Mutrah Souq. Every place we visited was absolutely beautiful, but what made the experience even more special was having Khalid with us.
Khalid is incredibly knowledgeable about Oman. He shared so much fascinating information about Omani culture, traditions, history, and heritage, and he explained everything with so much passion and enthusiasm. You can really feel that he loves his country and is proud to share its beauty and history with visitors.
He was also very respectful, helpful, welcoming, and genuinely caring throughout the entire trip. Thanks to him, we didn’t just visit beautiful places — we truly learned about and experienced the spirit of Oman.
It was honestly one of the most beautiful experiences we had in Muscat, and we are so happy that Khalid was our guide. If you are visiting Oman, we highly recommend having Khalid as your guide! He will make your trip even more special and memorable. ❤️🇴🇲
Thank you so much, Khalid, for an unforgettable day and for showing us the beauty of your wonderful country!

Superb day
A superb day out , visiting Nizwa fort and castle . Being expertly driven up and back down the mountain with full explanation by our guide and car enthusiast Aimen of how the 4 x 4 works .
Seeing the fossils so high up indicates how massive that earth quake must have been.
Followed by a cuppa and cake at the banana farm on our way back.

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

A Great Day!
I'm really glad I selected this tour. It was a beautiful, fun, and relaxing day, and everything went perfectly well and as expected based on the descriptions and reviews. Our guide Wadd was superior. I don't use WhatsApp so he took the time to communicate with me through the Viator app, and he was right on time in picking me up at my hotel. Wadd was kind and generous throughout the trip and never pressured us to hurry up, even though I think we were a bit slow and took a ton of photos. There were only three of us in the group so we were all comfortable in his 4x4 car. The scenery was gorgeous, and I learned a lot about Omani history at Fort Nawaz and the other historical sights we saw. The Khubz Ragag bread we tried at the fort was delicious. A must-try if possible. Our lunch was very good too. The mountains of Jebel Akhdar are lovely. You can clearly see the geologic forces that shaped them. I enjoyed stopping at the Al-Sharif Museum and seeing the beautiful views from the cafe deck there. I can highly recommend this great day tour and GidOman.

A wonderful tour from...
A wonderful tour from start to finish. The Nizwar fort and castle was terrific and the souk (which is in the same grounds) was really interesting, the Omanis are really friendly people and there is no hassle or pressure selling if you just want to stroll around the different stalls. The drive up and views from Jebel Akdah are stunning and then a visit to the fascinating little village of Birkat where you can wander round the abandoned farmers villages and get a sense of how they lived - wonderful little coffee shop up here as well - our guide Abdul was truly wonderful for the whole trip, a super friendly and knowledgeable guide, who we gelled with straight away. I would thoroughly recommend this tour and thank you again Abdul!

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.

Funtastic experience and excellent tour guide
The tour guide was very nice and he lead attendees properly and gently.
He cared all attendees and kept entertaining people until the end even though we were tired.
I usually don't join group tours. However I felt I would challenge again if tour guides are like him.
He carefully talked with people to minimize the anticipation including me,
The experience in Wadi Shab was fantastic and was much more than my expectation. Beautiful and exciting.
I just though one to be improved below.
Prenotification was just one day before and I purchased swimming shows, water shield bug already. I won't buy those if I knew those could be purchased or lent.
I heard a Vietnamese lade didn't swim because she said there were too many people swimming.
I guess a lot of Vietnamese can't swim and had no confidence to swim among those a lot of people.
Actually the experience was much challenging that I thought.
I could enjoy it but it might not be easy for people who don't swim so well. This is just my point of views because I believe she could claim it.

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.

Our day in Iman
the tour was awesome, you have the best guide, we are traveling to different countries and we didn’t have any guide as Mahmood, super kind, respectful and he gave us a lot information about Oman, thank you for the tour you made our day. We will be back soon if God wants.

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.
