This was such an amazing trip thank you to Mohammed who is a truly great guide! He was considerate, funny and shared some fantastic insights. The tour felt very insightful and not too rushed at all. We had time to soak all the sights in and learn about Omani culture. 100% recommend

Be prepared for a little extra time for this tour than advertised by Viatour - our guide Mohammed Aldoghaishi was superb. Great knowledge at all of the stops. Easy to understand and very friendly and provided additional useful advice to make the best of my time in Oman. Very flexible in terms of dropping people off at the end of the tour.
All in all a fantastic day out - thanks Mohammed

Amazing tour with Mohammed! Super chill and relaxed vibe, but still hit all the major Muscat spots. That mosque, absolutely stunning! Went way longer than expected—about 6 hours—so it felt like a full day instead of half (totally a win). Cheers!
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Thank you for the awesome review — we love your energy! 🌟
It’s great to hear that the Discover Muscat group tour exceeded your expectations and turned into more of a full-day experience. Muscat really has a way of drawing people in, and the Grand Mosque is always a show-stopper.
We’re glad Mohammed’s relaxed and easygoing style helped create such a good vibe while still covering all the key sights. That balance is exactly what makes a city tour memorable rather than rushed.
Thanks for joining us and for the cheerful recommendation — we’d be happy to show you even more of Oman next time. Cheers from the GidOman Tours team!

Jianing_L, Dec 2025
It was a jam packed day hitting all the major tourist spots in Muscat. A bit rushed as I’d love to spend more time at the mosque and visit one of the forts. But an efficient way to see all the key attractions in one day.
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Thank you for your honest and helpful feedback 🌟
We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed seeing the main highlights of Muscat and found the tour to be an efficient way to cover the city’s key attractions in a single day. Group city tours are designed to give a broad overview, and we’re happy it worked well for your schedule.
We also truly appreciate your comment about wanting more time at certain sites. For guests who prefer a slower pace or deeper exploration of specific landmarks, a private tour can be a great option, and we’d be happy to arrange that in the future.
Thank you for choosing GidOman Tours, and we hope to welcome you back to Oman again!

Very good. The guide and assistant are friendly and helpful. The mosque took a bit too long, the opera visit/ explorations were not detailed enough

Edgar_P, Oct 2025
The tour was worth the money! If I had to describe the guide, Jamal, in one word, I would say protective! He was always looking around, making sure everybody was safe, close to him, understood what he was explaining, and was enjoying the tour. I even left my shirt on the bus, and when he had the chance, he went the extra mile — drove back to my hotel and left it at the reception! Overall, it was a really positive experience.
Pity that Erdogan was there the same day, so the Al Alam Palace was closed, and we had to skip it. :)
Response from Host, Oct 2025
Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your experience with us! 🌟 We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the Muscat City Tour and appreciated Jamal’s care and attention — he truly goes above and beyond to make sure every guest feels safe and looked after. We’ll be sure to share your feedback with him!
It’s a pity that the Al Alam Palace was closed that day, but we’re glad the rest of the tour made up for it. We hope to welcome you again in Oman for more memorable experiences — perhaps next time with full access to the Palace!

I wanted to see the major attractions of Muscat and had only few hours, so i decided to book this half day tour. It was very easy to book, I received several reminders of the upcoming tour, the day before I was advised of the time when I will be picked up from my hotel. Our guide Jamal was very knowledgeable and entertaining, he has shown beautiful Muscat in 4 hours. Would recommend this tour to anyone who is short on time and wanted to explore the city. I have thoroughly enjoyed the experience!
Response from Host, Aug 2025
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re so glad you enjoyed the Discover Muscat: Group City Tour with Jamal.

It was a good experience. Jamal was excellent. Muscat is small, don't expect much even someone as Jamal can't do much with something small as Muscat
Response from Host, Nov 2024
Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to hear you had a good experience and appreciated Jamal’s excellent guidance. While Muscat is indeed a smaller city, it has its own unique charm, and we’re happy Jamal helped showcase the best of it.
We hope to welcome you back for more adventures across Oman!

Jamal is an amazing guide (and driver), very knowledgeable. He went above and beyond to make this tour perfect, and it was. The mosque is stunning, the opera is very nice, after a short visit to the souk I ended the free time by walking along the water, then off to the sultan palace which was also great. The scenery while driving was amazing too.
Response from Host, Jul 2024
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are thrilled to hear that you had a perfect tour with Jamal as your guide and driver. His knowledge and dedication truly make a difference.
