Pre-Khareef Season Tour of East Salalah - We got to see the diverse East side of Salalah with an outstanding guide who took us on a great tour. You’ll see the natural beauty of Salalah from the beaches and coastal cliffs; the cultural heritage of Taqah and the Mountain Villages, and Mirbat; the fresh water Wadi Datbat; and all the way up to almost 2,000m at or above the cloud line. We got to see the dragon blood tree and the baobabs. And a sinkhole 200m deep. We were just ahead of the Khareef or Monsoon Season, so we had low water and thankfully low crowds. We wound up our day with the freshest seafood at Mirbat at a quiet restaurant directly on the beach. Really amazing. Our guide Ameen spoke perfect English and he was an enthusiastic guide who was happy to answer all of our questions. We had a great time and we learned a lot from him. This is a great tour if you want to get a broad understanding of Salalah and the Dhofar Governate and its very unique geography. Very comfortable Land Cruiser too

An unforgettable day tour with an exceptional guide. - It was the best day tour we have ever experienced. Mohammed is an excellent guide—kind, humble, and extremely knowledgeable. He gave us valuable insights into the customs, traditions, and culture of Oman. We visited many places with truly breathtaking sights. He also took us to buy frankincense and guided us in selecting the best quality. In addition, he brought us to a lovely restaurant for fresh fish and even stopped at the fruit market so we could try coconuts. It was a wonderful experience and a truly memorable day. We highly recommend this tour.

Mountain safari tour - Our tour with our amazing guide in Salalah was nothing short of extraordinary! We started the day watching dolphins along the eastern coast, while he explained the traditional methods of sardine fishing. From there, we drove through the mountains to a breathtaking viewpoint before heading to the waterfalls. Our guide’s kindness and attentiveness truly shined during our hike to a hidden spot where we could leap into crystal-clear water. He was incredibly patient and encouraging, making sure everyone felt comfortable and safe. On the way to another stunning viewpoint, he stopped to show us the unique desert rose plants, which bloom only when leafless. The adventure continued as we drove to the highest peak in the area, where the views were absolutely breathtaking. Our guide then took us to a beautifully restored traditional house in Taqah, now a charming hotel, where we dressed in local attire and took wonderful photos. One of the most fascinating stops was the gravity-defying road, where our car moved uphill on its own without being in gear—such a surreal experience! We also ventured briefly into a baobab forest, where we saw the largest of these majestic trees—it was absolutely massive. To end the day, we visited a peaceful fishing village and enjoyed delicious local seafood. Throughout the entire journey, our guide was beyond exceptional—kind, knowledgeable, and always ensuring we had the best experience. His warmth and hospitality made this an unforgettable adventure, and I highly recommend him to anyone visiting Salalah!
