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.

Relaxed and informative
What a nice tour! A small group of 3 felt like It was a family outing. Our tour guide, Mahommed, was very polite and knows a lot of the city. He even helped me bargaining at the Souq. There was no rush, the clients determined the pace of the tour. Our van was in good condition, lots of space. I especially liked the karak chai that was offered to us towards the end of the tour. Highly recommended.

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!

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! 😊

What a wonderful experience
An absolutely unforgettable experience with Khair. Wadi was beyond beautiful and the beautiful peaceful deserts, breathtaking views, stunning sunsets. Everything from the atmosphere to the hospitality made this trip feel so special. Truly one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever visited. I was able to pet the camels and use the ATVS & Khair made me feel very comfortable. If you’re girly like I am, bring an extra set of clothes for cute pics! I just love looking fabulous and Khair took such amazing pics of me.

Nizwa, Jabreen, Bahla
We had a really good day from start to finish. Communication beforehand was good and the tour was well organised from start to finish. The van was new, comfortable and we appreciated the cold water available throughout the day. We liked that the tour covered important historical sites in Oman.
Our guide, Mohammed Aldighaishi, made for a memorable day. He was friendly, enthusiastic and helpful. We really enjoyed the day and his efforts.
Thank you

Should be 5⭐️+++ Genuinely the Best Tour Guide in Muscat!!!
Said messaged well in advance of the trip, to offer advice related to this tour or any other enquiries - and after getting to know him, this didn’t surprise me at all. An absolute gentleman who made our trip(s) fantastic.
Also, I had booked an evening city tour (through Viator) with a different company, the night prior to this trip. They cancelled a couple of hours prior and when I explained this to Said (due to his offer above), he stepped in at the 11th hour and took my wife and I on an additional tour at a very competitive price, with additional stops.
In terms of the trip we booked, it ticked all the boxes we were after, and even an additional stop at the perfume factory (following a chat about it the night prior), with no additional charge.
He also provided plenty of cold water, and his Land Cruiser was very comfortable throughout both trips. He knew all the photo spots to go too and even took pictures of my wife and I.
Following the trip, he also sent a list of restaurants and places of interest that worked within our schedule, including in Jabal Akhdar where we were going the next day.
I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better host while in Muscat.

Our captains were both...
Our captains were both friendly and very helpful throughout the day. The boat ride was smooth, snorkelling equipment was good and the turtles were amazing. We saw at least 30 altogether and they were not scared of the humans at all - very friendly in fact. Captain Nadeem captured some great footage of us with the turtles on his go pro which we were able to download a couple of days later. The beach was beautiful and we also enjoyed exploring the island. The lunch provided was plentiful. As vegans we definitely had enough but the meat eaters couldn’t manage all that was served to them from the beach bbq. We watched the beautiful sunset on the way back to the port. Overall it was a perfect day. Thank you.

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!

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.

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.

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.
