Day of history, art, culture, memories - Ī‘mazing cultural trip, many stops many attractions, nice food and company.
The highlight was our amazing guide and driver Mister Said, who was extremely helpful, friendly and informative.
This guide explored with us the places, answered our questions and we learned so many things about. Oman of the past and the contemporary lifestyle.
Thanks

A nice trip to Nizwa - You get what you pay for. An efficient tour which they have got down pat. They pick you up on time, show you what was promised, a good lunch and then drop you off. Khaleel was a good, polite driver

Excellent day trip to ancient capital Nizwa - Driver was excellent and punctual. The itinerary was great especially the hour in the Nizwa souq. Lunch was adequate. But the audio needs to be updated to reflect the death of Sultan Qaboos.

A nice day in Nizwa - Satisfying experience, good organization. I appreciated the idea of the audio guide in the Van, on the way to Nizwa: very informative. And lunch was good as well.

Nizwa and the Jabreen fort - It was a worthwhile day trip from Muscat. The road to Nizwa was also great, as we passed through arid mountains and oasis. Another plus was the recorded information available in the bus in multiple languages. Headsets were provided by the company.

Nice - Everything about the trip was good, right from the start to end. The only thing I would recommend is to allow more time at the Souq so that people can visit the Nizwa Fort.

Nicely organized trip... - Nicely organized trip with very informative audio guide. Only wish I had was we could have spend more time each places so we explore each town more as we ended up coming back around 4pm instead of 6pm, which was the advertised ending time.

Good tour to Nizwa area - GrayLine provides good group tour around Muscat! Tour size is typically about 8 people, give or take. The van comes to pick people up at the hotel, and than it takes about 2 hours to get to Nizwa area for the tour. First stop was a photo stop at Birkat Al Mawz, which has beautiful mountains around and watch towers. Next stop is the Nizwa Souq, a market for 1 hr. I didn't spend time to the Souq; instead I visited the Nizwa Fort next door. The driver didn't give too much details on how to get to the fort. I depended on my Google Map and GPS to find it. The circular cannon tower provides great views of the surroundings. Then, we stopped for lunch, a basically local cuisine with grilled chicken, salad, bread, hummus, rice, and a drink...good enough to fill me up! Then we stopped at Bahia Fort for photos, and final stop was Jabreen Castle for 45 min. Overall, it was a good one day trip, and the area is beautiful. As for the tour, I think there are some opportunities for improvement, like giving us more guidance on where things are like at Nizwa Fort that would be helpful.

Not worth the drive from Muscat - Was expecting much more of a historic old city. This is just your typical market that you could find in Muscat. No need to spend the money to drive 2 hours both ways to see this place.
