Awesome experience

Jas_K, Sep 2026

Had such a lovely time! I was in a nice small group so it almost felt like a private tour. We got to see a group of dolphins, which was quite magical. I would highly recommend this experience. One little tip: if you’re getting a taxi there, it can be a bit difficult to find one for the journey back, so I’d recommend pre-booking your return taxi if you can. A big thank you to Sabbir and Hussain for being so welcoming and explaining everything so well. A really lovely experience!

Response from Host, Sep 2026

Thank you for such a thoughtful review. We’re thrilled that you had a lovely time with us and that the dolphin encounter made your experience so memorable. It means a lot to hear that Sabbir and Hussain made you feel comfortable and well looked after. We also appreciate you sharing your advice about arranging a return taxi in advance. Thank you for choosing us and for your kind recommendation.

Lovely Experience

Joy_L, Dec 2025

I had a nice time on this dolphin watching experience especially getting to see so many dolphins. The high-speed part of the ride was a lot of fun, and the 2-hour duration felt just right—though even 1 hour would have been enough for me. The music was quite loud at times to compete with the engine noise, so it would have made sense to turn it off. Another downside is the toilet on the boat: if you’re tall or above average height, it’s not the most comfortable experience. Overall, it was a pleasant trip and an enjoyable way to spend time on the water.

Don’t bother

Horrific boat driving - we don’t get to see any dolphins either (but I understand that is nature) however the driver of the boat was awful. Bashed us around so much that I clung to the side until my hand was red raw. I couldn’t even get up to get a water. Complete waste of time

Trip Cancelled without Notice

Adrian_R, Dec 2024

We went to the place and firstly I didn’t find anyone of the company Nobles Marine and then someone who didn’t speak English well tried to explain something. Later he was calling the “boss” and then this guy told me that the trip was cancelled and that they had sent me an email. However, no email was received by me, not even in my spam mail. There no apology whatsoever from that company, which was really disappointing. They just told me that refunding the payment is not their responsibility. Fortunately there were other dolphin watching organizers in the same location and I managed to book with another company at much lower cost.

Positive experience

Worked hard to get to dolphins without scaring them. Good experience for the kids and family, good tour guide

It was worthy!

Christian_K, Apr 2024

Great experience overall! The guide was able to show us the best coast line for great pictures, and we were able to see a group of dolphins close to the boat.

Excellent trip and great staff

Greg_A, Mar 2024

Excellent trip, guys were very professional and attentive. Saw plenty of dolphins and a nice tour of the muscat coast. Highly recommend

Good but there is catch.

ABDULJABBAR_S, Jan 2024

While the experience was good, I was disappointed at being mislead at the time of booking. It was clearly mentioned that hotel pick up and drop would be provided in Muscat. But after completing and paying for the booking I was informed that hotel pick up and drop was not possible

Response from Host, Feb 2024
