Recommended tour outside of Muscat - Booked this tour through Viator and when I started writing to them asking for the details of my guide for pickup, they responded immediately.
Our guide, Khalil also reached out to me via WhatsApp the day before my tour to reconfirm my pickup time and pickup location (my hotel), which is what I always appreciate to ensure that everything starts off smoothly.
Khalil is very professional, alert and knowledgeable. He also ensured that our needs were met.
A nice surprise was fresh Omani bread that he treated us to at the Nizwa Fort, which was freshly made.
This tour was relaxing and as it’s private, we were able to move at our own pace. Khalil did not once rush us and allowed us to have as much exploring time as we would like.
All in all I would recommend this tour, especially if it’s your first time to Oman.

A trip through historical parts of Oman - My friends and I had a lovely day exploring beautiful Nizwa and Jebel Al Akhdar with our guide Amer. He looked after us very well, guided us through the Nizwa Soukh, advising on the best things to purchase (completely optional, of course) we then moved on the Nizwa castle and fort, Amer also helped us take some lovely photos, he then took us to a lovely Iranian restaurant before we moved on to Jebel Al Akhdar the “Green mountain” where we enjoyed a cooler temperature and saw rose fields and a traditional rose water factory as well as fruit orchards. On the way back we stopped at a UNESCO heritage irrigation site, very interesting. I would recommend this tour.

A wonderful day out in beautiful Oman - We had an excellent day trip from Muscat, taking in just some of the beautiful scenery that wonderful Oman has to offer.
Our day trip covered the sights and locations mentioned in the advert, with plenty of time at each spot for exploration. And the scenery along the way was breath-taking as well! Our personal favourite was Jabreen castle with the views and decor inside. Totally beautiful.
Our guide, Mr Saeed, was knowledgeable and great company - he made our day trip even more special. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and insights with us.
All in all, strongly recommended and a great day out. So glad we arranged this!

Fantastic day enjoying the history of Oman - Perfect day enjoying the forts and castle!! I think one of my favorite parts of the day was when we visited the souq! A lot of fabulous spices, I’m a huge lover of frankincense, sandalwood and other natural aroma therapy and it was very interesting. My college son really enjoyed trying the different dates and dipping the dates in tahini which we have never experienced before and loved it. Our guide was fantastic!! He was so pleasant and very knowledgeable. Told us so much about their culture in Oman. We loved every part of this tour! Highly recommend
