What are people saying about Muscat

Wadi Shab and Bimmah Sinkhole Group Full Day Tour

Jas_K, Oct 2026

Great guide

I just want to say how much I enjoyed the Wadi Shab & Bimmah Sinkhole full day tour 🩵. We had a great guide, Muhannad who explained everything so well and really took care of us throughout the day, making sure everyone felt safe and comfortable along the way. It was such a great experience and definitely a day I’ll remember. I would recommend hiring a life jacket, even if you’re a confident swimmer, as it really helps save your energy especially on a particularly hot day. Also, make sure you bring plenty of water and wear shoes with a good grip as you’ll definitely need both. Wadi Shab was challenging at times but completely worth it and the scenery was absolutely beautiful. This will be a great memory for me from my time in Oman. Thank you so much Muhannad for making the day such an enjoyable experience ☺️ !

The Highlight of My Visit to Oman

Khalid made what could have been a standard city tour into one of the highlights of my trip. From the moment we met, he had a calm, welcoming presence that immediately put me at ease. He’s soft-spoken, genuinely kind, and exceptionally knowledgeable about Muscat, Oman, Islam, and the broader Middle East. No question was off limits. Whether it was history, religion, culture, or current events, he answered thoughtfully and honestly without ever making the conversation feel rushed. During the tour we visited the magnificent Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, explored the Mutrah Souq, saw the Al Alam Palace, and even drove into the mountains for a completely different perspective of the city. Along the way, Khalid introduced me to Omani coffee, dates, sweets, and local traditions, making the experience feel authentic rather than scripted. What stood out most was how personal the day felt. I never felt like I was being rushed from one attraction to the next. Instead, it felt like spending the day with a local friend who genuinely wanted to share his country, his culture, and a glimpse into his own life. I felt completely safe the entire time, found myself laughing throughout the day, and came away with a much deeper appreciation for Oman and its people. If you’re considering a tour in Muscat, don’t hesitate. Khalid is not only an outstanding guide, he’s a genuinely good person. I hope our paths cross again someday.

Muscat: Full-Day 4WD Tour to Nizwa, Jebel Akhdar & Birkat Al Mouz

sonjavwingerden, Apr 2026

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.

Saad_H, Apr 2026

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

Nizwa and Jebel Akhdar Discovery: Guided Small Group Experience

Bianca_R, Mar 2026

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.

Steven_L, Jan 2026

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!

Nizwa and Oman's Historical Gems Tour

David_A, Jan 2026

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

Wadi Shab and Bimmah Sinkhole Full Day Tour

Nobunao_E, Dec 2025

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.

Snorkeling trips to Daymaniat Islands Sharing Trip

Natalie_M, Nov 2025

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.

Nizwa and Green Mountain Group Full day tour

Ubaldo_M, Oct 2025

Traditional Oman through mountains.

The trip among the mountains is espectacular. Once in Nizwa, the visit of Date Market is a must to taste different types of dates. The zouk is not big but good enough to find souvernirs. The Fort is really worth of visiting. The interior is beautiful. Perfect place to get good pictures. We had a very good and friendly guide Mohammed that was explaining not only about the places we visited but also about the Omaní life. The lunch was simple but very tasty. In out way back we visited the small old village Bait al Sabat. Definetely good place to take last pictures.
