Above and beyond - Our tour guide Mr Naseeb was a great guide, very knowledgeable and a born and raised Omani man with a great knowledge of his history. Myself and my 2 sons (9 & 11yrs) thoroughly enjoyed the tour. We learnt so much about the beautiful city of Muscat and will be visiting again very soon.

Short guided tour of the heart of Muscat - An excellent introduction with an expert guide to help us understand some of the history culture and people of Oman.

Beautiful excursion - We had actually expected a guided tour with a German-speaking Gide. I suppose because of missing bookings there were only two of us and the tour was with headphones.
Khaleel the driver showed us everything very well and ultimately made the trip an experience

Recommended tour! - Nice tour to visit Muscat, which I highly recommend as the city is really very large and therefore difficult to see independently, unless you take many taxis. The tour includes several very interesting stops, first of all the one at the majestic mosque of Sultan Qaboos. Less exciting, the one at the fish market, which could be avoided. Excellent audio guide available in several languages on board the bus, which allows you to discover the history of the capital of Oman. I give 4 stars and not 5, as this half-day tour could be extended to a full day, perhaps including further stops at other mosques in Muscat, which has many and one more beautiful than the other.

Nice little tour - A good tour overall. There was no guide, only a driver who did provide some information at certain points. Would have been nice to have a tour guide instead of an audio guide but it is still off peak season in Oman which may have been the reason. It was nice to spend a few hours out and about seeing a few different sights.

Educational Tour - Fun tour that showed us around downtown Muscat. I think I could have done without the fish market but it was otherwise a nice time.

Stops good, but lacks live commentary from Guide - The pickup was on time. All the stops were great. We missed the Opera House from the outside. We could have stopped for photos since the building is beautiful. However the biggest disappointment was the lack of live guide. We only had a pre recorded audio commentary... That is why 3 stars, otherwise would be 4 stars.
