Super Tour - We had a great day together with our guide Khalfan. An unforgettable experience and recommended to everyone.
The wadi was especially great.
After the walk, the tour continues in the water (floating) and ends at a waterfall of a special kind. Very impressive

Amazing day with Muneer! - Our trip was amazing with Muneer as our guide! He took us through Wadi Shab first, where he was very informative and made the trek a lot of fun. We had the best time - it was like paradise! Then we also went to White Beach and Bimmah Sinkhole, which were also very enjoyable with Muneer who made sure we were well looked after and relaxed. Muneer is very friendly and really knows his stuff, which made our day unforgettable. Thoroughly recommended if you want to explore these spots!
