hidden gem in Middle East - We were transiting here in muscat and decided to spend our day with a day tour. The tour was amazing, our guide Amer took us to the grand mosque, the wahiba desert and wadi Khalid. Very beautiful country. Would pick Amer as our tour guide again if we coming back to Oman. Highly recommended.

10/10 day trip / tour to desert sunset and Wadi Bani Khalid - Great tour out to Wadi Bani Khalid where our tour guide Jihad showed us a great swimming spot and we really enjoyed the trip there. Ride was very comfortable. Went on to see the sunset in the desert on the dunes, fed camels and went to see a Bedouin family and their house. Jihad made sure we enjoyed Omani food.

Excursion in the desert - Very nice excursion with the guide Khalid who was very friendly throughout the day. The desert of Oman is beautiful with its sand as far as the eye can see, we were able to take a camel ride for 3 extra riel. Then we went to wadi bani khalid which is really sumptuous and which is perfect to end the day.
