One day in Oman - With a 14 hour layover in Muscat what better way to spend the time than seeing some Omani highlights. My driver and guide Khalil was great not only with his driving but with imparting the history of the sites we visited. Who knew that Omanis were building castles 5000 years ago (Jabreen)?Amazing! The pick- up from the airport was right on time and communication between the client-me- and Khalil was spot-on. There was nothing to fault throughout the day. I’d highly recommend this tour for a quick overview of Oman and its history. Now to come back for a more in-depth look….

History tour with Star Tours Oman - We had a very happy to this tour with Star Tours Oman thanks for this company and to our guide Mr.Mohammed for making my family satisfied our guide was very kind and helpful for us.I highly recommend this Company.

historical trip - Thank you Star Tours Oman! For my satisfied tour and also thank you to the you guide Mr.Khamis for making me happy our guide was knowledgeable and responsible.This company I highly recommended.Thanks Again Star Tours

I recommend it - The only downside is that there is no group tour and it is expensive if you go on a private tour by yourself, but the tour was on time, the guide was very kind, and I was very satisfied with the sightseeing without being rushed. The car was also comfortable. Entrance fees are not included, but when I visited, they were 5.00 OMR for Nizwa Fort, 3.00 OMR for Bahara Fort, and 3.15 OMR for Jabreen Castle. I recommend it.

5-Star Tour - Highly Recommend Star Tours Oman and Tour Guide Saif!!! - This is a fantastic tour that I would highly recommend to all of my family and friends! I had the pleasure of having Saif as my tour guide - he is very knowledgeable and truly went above and beyond to ensure I had the perfect tour. I can’t thank Saif enough for everything he did for me! 5 stars and highly recommended!

Unforgettable trip to Nizwa and the forts of Bahla and Jabrin from Muscat - I booked this trip directly with Star Tours Oman via email. The communication went easily and correctly. The old town of Nizwa was very beautiful. There was plenty of time to visit the souk, to taste a dozen kinds of dates, and to visit the Nizwa Fort. In the afternoon we visited Fort Bahla and Fort Jabrin. These two forts were recently restored and are very beautiful. I cannot thank my guide Ali enough for the effort he made to make this trip unforgettable.

Day trip to Nizwa. - Abdel Majid's guide service in Nizwa, Oman, exceeded our expectations. His in-depth knowledge of the area and insightful commentary added immense value to our experience. From navigating Nizwa's historic sites to sharing local stories, Abdel Majid's guidance made our visit memorable. Highly recommended for a comprehensive and enjoyable exploration of this fascinating region.

Fun Day trip with Majid and Star Tours - We had a tour with Majid to see the Nizwa Fort, Bahla Fort, and Jabreen Castle. We also saw the Nizwa souq. It was a really great tour with Majid as our guide! We learned a ton about Muscat, Oman, the Omani people and traditions, as well as lots of great info about the places we visited. We had a lovely lunch from a local restaurant, and Majid had plenty of cold water for us - it was hot the day we went on our tour! I would recommend this tour and Majid to anyone looking for a great day trip from Muscat!

A historical - A historical full day trip was a wonderful experience. The fortresses and the castles was amazing. Bahla fort, jabrin castle and the nizwa fort and nizwa souq. Our guide was kind and friendly tour guide.

Omani castles and forts and their historical context - This tour helped us get a good sense of the architecture of castles and forts in Oman, since 2 of each are on the tour. Our guide Said was extremely informative and takes joy in his country and the places we visited, even though he probably visits them almost every day. He knows his way through each place and tells about the features, sometimes asking us to guess about the purpose of a particular feature. We especially enjoyed the freshly made Omani bread in the courtyard near Nizwa Castle and Fort -- recommend it for a light lunch stop! We also tasted dates and Omani sweets (halwa). Said also taught us a lot about Omani history, the Ibadi branch of Islam, and the Omani economy and demographics. Note: if you want to see the suq (particularly the goat and cattle markets), you will need to go on a tour that leaves much earlier in the day in order to arrive around 7 -- this was not that tour.
