Great fjords. I never... - Great fjords. I never expected to see scenaries like this in this part of the world. And we saw a pod of dolphins swimming along our boat within 10 minutes after the cruise started. A memory I will cherish for a long time to come.

Must take city tour - We took a Dubai city architectural tour with Alex the guide. He has amazing knowledge of every building in Dubai and we enjoyed every minute of it. Alex has an infinite amount of knowledge about Dubai and the Emirates. We highly recommend the tour with him.

Creek cruise is very good for some relaxing. Thank you saifco for making it great for us.recommended

Saifco Travel and Tourism- Inefficient - Saifco Travel and Tourism is an inefficient our operator. We booked and paid and then got a demand to ASAP our passports on WhatsApp. Big problem - they did not provide a WhatsApp number. We ar using another tour operator which looks after its clients.

NEVER Again unsafe and bad customer service - My experience with this Musandam trip was particularly disappointing, as it fell short of the expectations set by the operator's website. The issues were numerous:
Firstly, the driver was impolite and had poor communication skills, giving the impression that he was not satisfied with his job.
Secondly, despite arriving between 12:30-1:00pm, we nearly missed the initial part of the tour. Blaming it on the peak season was not an acceptable excuse, as they should have been prepared for potential delays.
Thirdly, upon reaching Musandam, we were informed that we would be joining a different boat, which was unexpected and not communicated beforehand.
Fourthly, being four girls among a boat full of men raised safety concerns. While the operator claimed it was a shared boat, they should have prioritized the safety and comfort of their customers.
Fifthly, the website advertised a maximum of 15 people on the boat, but in reality, there were around 75 individuals, leading to overcrowding and discomfort.
Sixthly, when we raised our concerns, the operator failed to provide any solutions. Instead, they asked us, four ladies, to wait until 5 pm for other guests to finish, leaving us stranded without accommodation or food until 3 pm. This forced us to arrange our own transport back to Dubai at an additional cost.
Seventhly, there was no apology from any of the staff or the owner for the inconveniences we faced throughout the trip.
It is evident that the owner prioritizes profit over customer safety and satisfaction, displaying a lack of care and regard for their clients' well-being.
