Wadi bin khaled - Waleed was very knowledgeable and constantly giving us history of the Omani people and the way of life here. The wadi was beautiful and the scenery is amazing. It is handy if you know how to swim otherwise it may be challenging. However you can dip your feet or stand in small part of it but there is a bit of a walk to get to it so not suitable if you have an injury or unable to climb.

Incredible Wahiba Sands & Wadi Bani Khalid - I recently had the opportunity to explore Wahiba Sands and Wadi Bani Khalid with Oman Landscape Tours, led by Khalid. From the outset, it was clear that his deep appreciation for the landscape and culture would make this an extraordinary experience. Khalid’s vast knowledge brought our journey to life, weaving in captivating stories about the region's history and traditions. The sweeping desert vistas of Wahiba Sands were truly awe-inspiring, and Khalid knew exactly where to take us for the most breathtaking views and photo opportunities. Wadi Bani Khalid was just as mesmerizing, and thanks to Khalid's expert guidance, we were able to fully appreciate its serene beauty—from the crystal-clear pools to the vibrant greenery. Throughout the tour, Khalid’s warmth and professionalism made us feel both comfortable and secure. I highly recommend Oman Landscape Tours and Khalid for anyone seeking an unforgettable adventure in Oman!

Remarkable, memorable tour. 10/10 would do again! - This trip was perfect in every way! My friend and I booked a desert tour with our guide Waleed. I’ve had two tours with Waleed, he’s an excellent guide, very reliable, and knows everyone in the areas we’ve visited, which ensured a very smooth experience :) Waleed took photos of us, allowed us to stop for coffee on the way to the desert, we then rode ATV bikes, rode camels while watching the sunset, visited an authentic Bedouin home. 100% plan to take a Sunshine tour again.

Fun filled trip - We had a great trip to Wahiba sands. Our trip guide Mr. Amer was polite and informative, made sure we had a good time out in the desert and my daughter was super excited after a fun camel ride. He told us about the culture and history of the Bedouin people. We had yummy Omani coffee and dates. He also treated us to delicious herbal tea after a sumptuous Omani lunch recommended by him. He was patient and cooperative as we were travelling with a baby too. Will definitely opt him again if we come back to Oman.

Two unique experiences in one - The second tour I have taken with Amer on my trip to Oman and once again his extensive knowledge bought the trip to life! Despite the weather warnings we were able to do everything that we wanted. Make sure you ask for Amer when booking through Landscape, thoroughly recommended,
