Great trip to eternal history of Oman - The view and atmosphere after the hard walking was really amazing. And also we were very happy to could visit beautiful rose garden, where we can buy some rose products. We had a long journey but it was comfortable in the car. Our guide Mr. Alkiyumi was very nice and kind. He has a great coverage of knowledge about the places we visited.

The experience of exploring this breathtaking mountainous landscape is truly enchanting - Jebel Akhdar stands as a cooler haven compared to Muscat, making it a perfect destination for an unforgettable day trip, with its stunning vistas that leave you in awe. It's crucial to ensure that you're equipped with a 4WD vehicle, as standard cars are not permitted due to the rugged terrain. To navigate this terrain safely, having a knowledgeable guide with specialized driving skills is essential. Thank you for this amazing trip.

Mesmerizing View at Anantara Resort - My second time to visit Jabal Akhdar because of its natural beauty, and i finally had the chance to enter Anantara Resort, and wow, what a mesmerizing view!!! I want to thank Star Tour Oman, esp Mr. Ghaith Al Hadi, who is a very friendly guide on this tour. I recommend Star Tour Oman for everyone planning to visit this place.

A Hundred steps down and more at Al Suwjara Village - Jebel Akhdar - Oman is a beautiful country surrounded by mountains and amazing landscapes. We have been here for many years but never explored its beauty on top of the mountains. We booked on May 2, 2022, with "Star Tours Oman" for this trip and visited the old village in Jebel Akhdar called Al Suwjara Village, You have to hike all the way down to the village, the steps are safe and easy. We enjoyed visiting this place. We would like to thank Mr. Said for taking us safely to this place, without his skills in safe driving, we will not be able to pass an arduous path up the hill. He is able to communicate and is fluent in English. He is knowledgeable in what he is doing and is able to give a historical background of all the places that we visited. This trip won't happen without the help of Ms. Rhoda, she had arranged our itinerary well enough to visit all the places that are included in the package. Once again thank you.
