Wadi Shab Tour
We liked this trip. The Wadi Shab and the scenery around is very beautiful.
You can buy or rent shoes and life vest for 1 or 3 Oman rial. The lunch was simple but authentic food. The sink hole is nice to see. The guide Abdullah also made a very good job and was very friendly.

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!

Demaniyat Islands
One of the best experiences we've had
The boys thoroughly enjoyed swimming with the turtles.
We were also lucky enough to see a whale shark and swim with them.
Captain Osama and Captain Elias were more than wonderful, cooperative, and extremely professional in their dealings.
I highly recommend dealing with their company ❤️👍

Oman at Its Best: Stunning Landscapes and Genuine Hospitality
The trip was truly amazing! Although it was very hot and sunny, I would highly recommend doing this tour during the winter months when the weather is much cooler. Nevertheless, I cannot complain because the weather in Jebel Akhdar was pleasantly cool and refreshing.
I loved every part of the trip—the places we visited, the breathtaking views, the shopping opportunities, and of course, the people of Oman, who are among the most humble and welcoming people on earth.
Our tour guide, AbdulAziz, was absolutely fabulous. He was incredibly patient and accommodating, always mindful of the different needs and backgrounds of everyone in the group. For example, he made sure those who needed time to pray could do so comfortably, and he kindly assisted some of the women with their shopping and carrying purchases. He never rushed anyone and made everyone feel included and cared for throughout the day.
Abdul Aziz was also very generous with his time, attention, and advice. He went above and beyond to ensure everyone was comfortable, answered every question with enthusiasm, and shared helpful recommendations about local culture, food, and places to visit.
His knowledge of Oman was exceptional. You could immediately tell how much he loves his country and how passionate he is about sharing its history, traditions, and hidden gems. His stories and insights made every stop more meaningful and interesting.
On top of that, he had a great sense of humor that kept the tour fun, relaxed, and engaging from start to finish. I also made new friends among the people on the tour, which made the experience even more memorable.
If I return to Oman, I would definitely request AbdulAziz as my guide again and would happily recommend him to my friends and family. Thank you for such an unforgettable experience! 😊

Beautiful experience in the desert.
We were fortunate to spend an unforgettable day with Qais and could not have wished for a better guide.
He accompanied us through the wonderful landscapes of Wadi Bani Khalid and the desert, allowing us to experience an authentic, fun, and emotionally rich experience. From the very first moment, he proved to be extremely kind, helpful, and welcoming. During the trip, we chatted a lot, and talking with him was truly interesting: he knows his country very well and is a person full of energy and friendliness.
Qais is a real character, in the most positive sense of the term: he has unique manners and attitudes that make him impossible to forget. He made us laugh, have fun, and always feel at ease. In the desert, it was fantastic: he took us over the dunes with great confidence and skill, allowing us to experience thrilling moments while always making us feel safe.
However, the thing that impressed us the most was his incredible kindness. Even after the tour, he remained at our disposal, and two days later, he even offered to take us to the airport for free. Moreover, he told us that he would be happy to help us visit other places, simply by calling him, without asking for anything in return.
People like this are rarely encountered. Qais was not only an excellent guide but also one of the most friendly, genuine, and helpful people we met during our trip to Oman. We recommend him without any hesitation to anyone who wants to experience an authentic and unforgettable adventure.
Thank you for everything, Qais!

Dimaniyat a paradise
The islands are wonderful and the organization was perfect. We spent a relaxing day swimming with myriad colorful fish and turtles in clear waters. The barbecue on the beach organized in detail. We ended the day admiring the sunset before returning to Muscat.
I recommend this one-day experience. Too little to spend in this paradise half a day.

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.

Great day trip to Jebel Shams and Nizwa with one of GidOman's best guides.
Had a fantastic day with Asaad and a couple from France. Another Italian was supposed to come along but he had gone with another group. Left a bit later than planned so we changed the program and went first to Jebel Shams and then to Nizwa. In retrospect, I think much more fun! Asaad spoke good English and told along the way much, very nice! Enjoyed the views at Jebel Shams. Then lunch and to Nizwa Fort & Castle and finally to the souk. Asaad let us taste many local dishes and there was always coffee & dates. Super enjoyed this day 😃

Comfortable, perfectly timed & impressive nature experience.
This private tour with Gid Oman was just ideal for us. The entire process was perfectly coordinated. From punctual pickup to relaxed return, everything went smoothly and without time pressure.
The journey was in a very comfortable, air-conditioned minibus, which is a big plus, especially in terms of distances and temperatures. Mohammed Aldighaishi is an extremely attentive, humorous and experienced guide who makes the tour pleasantly familiar.
A special highlight was the very good, regional and family lunch, which gave us an authentic insight into Omani cuisine – fresh, loving and far from tourist restaurants.
The tour to the waterfall in Wadi Shab was absolutely impressive: spectacular nature, exercise, cooling off in the water and enough time to enjoy. The mix of comfort, nature experience and perfect time management was outstanding.
Conclusion: An all-round thoughtful, personal and high-quality tour – significantly more than we expected. Clear recommendation for Gid Oman and Mohammed Aldighaishi!

Well organized tour with competent and welcoming captain.
We had an incredibly positive experience that exceeded all our expectations.
The communication before the trip was quick and clear. We were picked up at our hotel at the agreed time and brought back after the trip.
Nice boat with comfortable seats. We saw lots of dolphins playing and jumping in front of the boat. The subsequent snorkeling in a beautiful bay was very successful. We saw lots of beautiful fish and lots of turtles.
On the way home we sailed close to the coast and the captain explained what we saw.

Excellent guide
My guide, Mohammed Ali, was excellent, both in his local knowledge and in being ultra helpful. I was going to a friend’s place for dinner that evening and then guide went out of his way to help me, speaking to my friend and finding a safe taxi to get me there. He made sure the taxi driver had both his and my friend’s details so that they could ensure I got there safely. The locations we visited were beautiful. We were a small group of four and everyone in the group was friendly.

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.
