Wahiba Sands Desert & Wadi Bani Khalid Tour - Our day with Sunshine Tour was truly unforgettable, thanks to our exceptional guide, Khalid AlRaqadi. He was always patient, attentive, and ensured we felt comfortable throughout the trip. His expertise, professionalism and genuine kindness made the experience stand out. If you’re planning a visit to Oman, I recommend Sunshine Tour and be sure to ask for Khalid if you can. He made our adventure extra special in every way. A huge thank you to Khalid for making our trip so memorable!

Excellent Tour with Mr Ahmed Qamis of Oman Sharing Tours Adventure! - We had the absolute pleasure of having Mr Ahmed Qamis, whom my children affectionately called Uncle Ahmed, as our driver and guide on two unforgettable tours in Oman — to Wahiba Sands with a visit to a Bedouin camp, Wadi Bani Khalid, and the desert, as well as to the breathtaking Jabal Akhdar. Along the way, he also took us to Birsay Al Mouz old village, explained the fascinating irrigation system of Al Kattmyn (Falaj), and showed us the scenic views of Birkat Al Mouz and Diana’s Viewpoint. From start to finish, he made our experience seamless and truly exceptional — even providing much-needed cold water to keep us comfortable in the heat. Mr Ahmed Qamis is not only a skilled and reliable driver but also a wonderfully knowledgeable guide. He shared captivating insights into Omani history, culture, and traditions in a way that was easy to follow and deeply engaging. His patience, kindness, and genuine friendliness instantly put us at ease, and he went above and beyond to ensure we were enjoying every moment. What impressed us most was the pride he takes in representing his country. He is a true ambassador for Oman — showcasing its beauty and traditions with warmth, sincerity, and authenticity. Thanks to him, we didn’t just witness stunning landscapes; we also gained a deeper appreciation of Omani culture and hospitality. We cannot recommend Mr Ahmed Qamis highly enough. If you are planning a trip to Oman, a tour with him will not just be memorable — it will be truly enriching.

Excellent trip to wadi bani khalid and wahiba sands - Beautiful drive with Khalid AlRaqadi to the Wadi and Wahiba Sands. We stopped for pictures at lovely locations and Khalid ensured we had enough time to appreciate the views and he took lovely pictures of me and my family. Khalid was very welcoming and knowledgeable on Omani culture and bedouin life. We had a fun ride on the camels, watching the sunset and stopped to pray at mosques and a nice walk in wadi bani khalid.

Amazing tour from Khalid - The tour was lovely and the views were beautiful. We got to ride camels and watch the sunset. Our tour guide, Khalid AlRaqadi was amazing and so friendly. He was very entertaining and made us feel welcome. He took lots of good pictures of us aswell. He took us to villages along the way and he explained about Omani traditions and bedouin lifestyle. He took us to masjids for our prayers during the tour and treated us to Omani bread, tea and dates. Would definitely recommend Khalid as your tour guide!
