Exceptional experience overall - We're seasoned travelers and understand the importance of a great tour guide. Mohammed Al Jabri provided us with an exceptional experience of touring Oman. He was a safe driver and was very enthusiastic about his job. He'd go out of his way to keep his customers safe and strives to provide the best possible experience. For example, at Wadi Shab, he would hike with us all the way and would even swam in the narrow area while some drivers from other tour companies would just wait at the entrance. He knows these areas very well and would point to any potential hazards like slippery spots. You can tell he really enjoys what he is doing. I'd highly recommend this tour company. Everyone was so responsive, and especially Rosa would respond to our inquiries very promptly. You'll be in good hands with them.

Desert fun - Spending two days in the desert with Ahmed and Nazer was a life-changing experience. I have never felt so connected to nature as I did during this trip. The silence of the desert, the endless dunes, and the stunning sunsets were nothing short of magical. Ahmed and Nazer were the perfect guides for such an intimate experience. They showed us hidden corners of the desert that felt untouched by time, and their deep respect for this environment was inspiring. They also shared personal stories about their lives and the traditions of their people, making the trip feel so much more meaningful. This wasn’t just a tour; it was a journey that touched my soul. I’ll carry the memories of these two days with me forever. Thank you, Ahmed and Nazer, for everything.

Perfect Day in the Desert - Our trip to the desert with Ahmed and Nazer was a perfectly planned and executed adventure. The two-day itinerary struck a great balance between excitement and relaxation. We traveled in sturdy, well-maintained jeeps, which Ahmed and Nazer maneuvered expertly across the vast dunes. Their professionalism and confidence made us feel safe throughout the journey. The activities were diverse and engaging. We experienced exhilarating dune bashing, followed by peaceful moments at scenic viewpoints where the sunset painted the sand golden. Ahmed and Nazer also provided thoughtful insights into the desert’s ecosystem and the Bedouin way of life, which added an educational element to the trip. Both guides were attentive, ensuring we were comfortable and hydrated at all times. They anticipated our needs before we even voiced them. This level of care, combined with the beauty of the desert, made the trip truly exceptional. Highly recommended!

Amazing tour to the desert - I had the best time in the desert with Ahmed and Nazer! We spent two days exploring some of the most stunning places I’ve ever seen. The jeep rides were so much fun – those guys really know how to handle the dunes. Every stop we made was more beautiful than the last, and they were always happy to take photos for us or let us soak it all in at our own pace. What stood out most was how friendly and knowledgeable they were. They explained so much about the history and culture of the area, and I learned a lot while having a great time. The camp we stayed at was comfortable, and the food was absolutely delicious – way better than I expected in the middle of the desert! If you’re thinking of going, do it. Ahmed and Nazer will make sure you have an amazing experience

Adventurous Tone - Our two-day desert adventure with Ahmed and Nazer was absolutely phenomenal! From the moment we hopped into the jeeps, it was clear we were in for an unforgettable experience. Both Ahmed and Nazer were incredibly skilled drivers, expertly navigating the challenging dunes with precision and confidence. We ventured deep into the desert, stopping at breathtaking viewpoints that made us feel like we were standing on the edge of the world. The highlight for me was the sheer variety of the tour. We went dune bashing, explored serene desert oases, and even visited a secluded Bedouin camp. Ahmed and Nazer made sure we were always comfortable and engaged, sharing fascinating stories about the local culture and traditions. Their passion for the desert was contagious! This wasn’t just a tour – it was an adventure. I can’t recommend Ahmed and Nazer enough for anyone seeking a mix of adrenaline, culture, and natural beauty. A true bucket-list experience!

Wadi bani khalid - The desert and Wadi Bani Khalid adventure with my friend is truly etched into our memories. Our journey took us deep into the heart of Wadi Bani Khalid, where we explored the captivating cave, indulged in invigorating swims, and embarked on exhilarating hikes. In Wahiba, we added another layer of excitement with a camel ride, capturing countless stunning photos from the summit of the majestic sand dunes.
