Love the tour and the city!!

Aveline_J, Sep 2024

Great tour to see Muscat. We were very impressed by this city and its overall vibe in our short stay in Muscat. Our tour guide Hamood was very knowledgeable and very patient with us with all of our questions. We were picked up at the hotel and back to hotel. Went around to see the Grand Mosque, opera house, stopped by at a very good restaurant as per our request and the Souk. Recommend this tour and would love to come back and visit this city again hopefully in near future!
