Fantastic day experiencing the Oman desert - We had a truly excellent day out with Said who was a fantastic guide. The desert was incredible, so exciting to drive along the sand and then visit the Bedouin home. The camel ride was especially fun. Wadi bani Khalid was beautiful and refreshing to swim at and very accessible . A wonderful day out which was made easy with this tour.

Beautiful Oman - Just back from an amazing day with our guide Jihad, The Wadi, Bedouin House and Desert Sunset were all wonderful and our daughter had so much fun on her camel ride. We cannot thank Jihad enough for making memories for our short stay in Oman and cannot recommend him highly enough! His choices for food and coffee stops were all great you will not be disappointed

Perfect day in the desert. - We yesterday had a private full day tour with Mr. Ali Al Harthy into the desert. He is a very good driver and excellent tour guide. It was a relaxing day with great experiences! In the morning we had a stop with Oman breakfast and delicious Karak Tea. Then we drove to beduin house in the dessert and enjoyed camel riding. In another camp we did a quad bike ride through desert dunes, which was an exciting event. During the whole day Mr. Ali Al Harthy made photo stops on request. Before return to hotel we enjoyed deliciius Omani Lunch. We definetly recommend this tour when visiting Oman. Communication with tour company was also perfect. Summary: 5 Stars for a perfect tour.

Wonderful day in the desert and Wadi Bani Khalid in the mountains! - Yesterday we made a beautiful day trip with Oman Landscape Tours. We first visited Wadi Bani Khalid and then headed into the desert, stopping at a Bedouin house. Our guide Amer was incredibly friendly and helpful. Lunch at a local restaurant was delicious. A great experience to get to know Oman better! Oman Landscape Tours definitely recommended. Oman Sunshine Tours can therefore definitely be booked from the same company. Kudos also to Analiza for the organization! She responded quickly to questions and booking! Thanks to everyone!!!

Wadi bin khaled - Waleed was very knowledgeable and constantly giving us history of the Omani people and the way of life here. The wadi was beautiful and the scenery is amazing. It is handy if you know how to swim otherwise it may be challenging. However you can dip your feet or stand in small part of it but there is a bit of a walk to get to it so not suitable if you have an injury or unable to climb.
