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

Excellent city tour
We only had a few days to discover this magnificent city and this tour didn't dissapoint. Our driver Ahmed was excellent, he talked us through all of the points in the tour, his English is excellent. The beauty of a private tour is the personalisation, which Ahmed gave us lots of options. Clean, well presented air conditioned car. Picked up from our hotel lobby and excellent communication from tour company. Would definitely recommend this tour.

Wonderful Wadi Shab
The hike is not long but is uneven and rocky terrain. You should be able to handle 1.5 hours of this. The valley is stunning and the water is clear and beautiful. The swim into the cave is such a thrill. Our guide Mohammad was delightful. He took such good care of us and shared history of the region as well as personal stories to help us understand and appreciate Omani culture. The highlight of my trip to Oman.

Lovely tour of the key sites of Muscat.
We had a lovely trip out. Muhammed our guide was on time and very friendly. The Grand Mosque is incredible not to be missed as is the opera house. At the opera house you join a timed tour with an in house guide, their guide was not as good as Mohammed. All in all a great way to get to know the city and see its key sites.

Had a great trip with Mohammed. He is very polite, positive and courteous and gave us all a great insight into Muscat. He was knowledgeable and answered all of our questions in depth. He arrived on time at my hotel after communicating the pick up time earlier in the day. I found him to be a very safe driver. I would highly recommend this tour.

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!!

Great choice for a day tour from Muscat
Great day tour from Muscat. The scenery was gorgeous and the hike through the canyon and then the swim in the wadi provided a good amount of exercise, which is what we were after. The tour was well organised and the communication was seemless. We were very happy overall.

Fabulous morning dolphin watching
Fabulous morning dolphin watching on a lovely boat and then finding shallow shores to stop and snorkel. Had a great time with my family. Everything was prompt and well planned. We saw lots of dolphins and then the skipper took us to a quiet area to snorkel. We thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and would highly recommend. We also had soft drinks and muffins on board.
