Excellent day and highly recommended - We had a fantastic day and the crew were very helpful and hospitable. The guide was very informative and interesting. We saw dolphins and went snorkelling twice. The food and drinks were very good and we would definitely go again. The only issue we had was that the driver who returned us to our hotel drove way too fast and well above the speed limit. It was quite frightening and there was no need.

HIGHLY recommended - 10/10 experience!!! - We booked a day and overnight dhow cruise for a mixed bunch of 10. I cannot recommend this company enough, they were very attentive and detailed with WhatsApp communication prior to our trip, arranging for transport to collect us from the Dubai border (an AED 800 additional charge) - and take us through to Oman, and to the dhow. The dhow itself was wonderful, clean, comfortable and spacious. We were greeted with a fresh fruit platter and an ice box full of water and soft drinks. Lunch was delicious, and plenty for all ten people - we saw many dolphins and enjoyed swimming in the various stop off points in crystal clear waters. We had two members of staff with us the entire 24- hour trip, the captain and his helper were amazing, so friendly and very attentive to our needs. At night the seas were full of illuminous plankton - the most incredible experience to see!! We loved sleeping on the top-deck and waking up to the most beautiful pink sky was magical. Overall, this trip is HIGHLY recommended, and I would like to thank Dhow Khasab Tours for their 10/10 service.

Not to be missed - It was an excellent private cruise accompanied by Khalid (very professional French-speaking guide) and a very friendly captain and sailor. To do without hesitation!

Great excursion - Lovely experience. The boat staff are very friendly and very patient, and they did their best to make sure we have a memorable excursion. The dolphin sightings were a great highlight and the kids were super happy. Thanks to Maqsod and Sameer

Beautiful views of Musandam peninsula! - This is a relaxing way to spend the day in Musandam. The scenery is absolutely stunning! The captains know how to provide a good wake for the dolphins to play in. The snorkelling is pretty good, except the boats all go to the same place and they spit out a LOT of diesel right where you go into the water, which is a shame. The guide we had was new and wasn't able to provide much information, but the First Mate was great and went around to tell us individually what we were seeing on the shore. This part could be improved. The lunch was really yummy and there were plenty of drinks available. There's a toilet (can't flush it while at anchor, hmmmm) where you can also change for swimming, and plenty of room to just lounge on the deck. Take a book and enjoy a beautiful day at sea!

Very nice, saw same... - Very nice, saw same dolphins from a distance and swam into the sea (which wasn't cold despite being in December). Unfortunately, dolphins didn't came to us while swimming.
