Oman Dolphin Watching Tours - I recently went on a dolphin watching tour with QTours, and I have to say, it was an incredible experience! My friend and I had an amazing time, and the whole trip exceeded our expectations. The tour was well-organized, and the staff was friendly. We were lucky enough to see several dolphins up close, and the boat ride itself was very comfortable and scenic. I highly recommend QTours. It was truly a memorable experience!

Exciting experience watching dolphins in their natural habitat. Added bonus was seeing the coastline from the boat. - We had a truly unforgettable experience on this tour. The speedboat was modern and clean, with lots of shade, and there was plenty of cold soft drinks and bottled water. Mahmood was our driver and guide. He was very professional, friendly and took care of the passengers very well. The dolphins were equally professional, taking their jobs seriously by turning up every now and then at the surface of the ocean to show off their swimming and leaping skills to great effect. The tour ended with an incredible coastal tour which showcased the beauty and magnificence of the coastline of Oman. I highly recommend this tour and the tour operator QTours.

Another tick on my bucket list - Fantastic trip to tick off a bucket list wish to see dolphins in the wild. The first day of this trip there wasn’t a dolphin to be seen, however, we were given a tour of this stunning coastline instead and were offered snorkelling but unfortunately we didn’t have our swimwear. Determined to succeed we booked again for the next day and were generously offered a discount. Second day we struck lucky and saw what felt like hundreds of dolphins. The boat captains all communicate to find the best possible chance of sightings. Followed by a stop in a picturesque bay to do some snorkelling. Both trips were small groups.
