Lovely day - It was really awesome!! I went with my family, we really enjoyed it!! We did snorkelling, speed boat, visited the beach and did kyak. We wish we could have stopped twice to do snorkelling a second time, instead of fishing but that is our personal opinion. The only thing is that on Tripadvisor it doesn’t mention we have to go by bus to musandam, we only understood we were going on the bus, once we were there. On the website it looks like we will be all the trip from Dubai to Oman on a boat. Anyway the boat is worth the bus trip!! We really loved it!!

Great day on the water - Long bus ride but definitely worth the journey! Scenery was amazing as was the food. Add in the banana boat and speed boat rides and it was a great day on the water!

Snorkelling in Norman from Dubai - Was interesting to see the rural Dubai and a bit of Oman. Swimming was great, saw some turtles, fish and a sunken boat. Had fun on banana boat. Food was great. Would recommend it to sea lovers with no hesitation.

Loved it - All activites were free. The hotel pick up was very convenient. The driver knew I was flying out that night so made extra efforts to get me back quickly. The guides were very friendly and very obliging or everyone. It was my first solo adventure and I was nervous but everyone was so kind and really helped me feel comfortable. Toilets on the boats whoop whoop. I didnt expect there to be any so that was a plus. Some people weren't leaving the toilets clean after using them even though staff and guides asked them to leave them like they found them. Cannot fault the staff, the tour operator or the experience in any way. Would definitely recommend and would do again.

Fabulous Boat Trop - Trip was very well organised, all the staff were helpful, friendly and accommodating. Boat was comfy and the food was great. Great range of activities included and views were fabulous. Just one thing to be aware of is the transfer from Dubai to the boat is around 3 hours - that said the journey is interesting and you get to see other areas as well.

8 hours on a bus 5 on a boat! - 8 hours on a bus there and back and only 5 hours on the boat! Utterly disappointing and frustrating. Would never book again or recommend this trip. So badly advertised. Frustratingly the boat trip itself is excellent but not worth 8 hours cramped in a small minibus to and from Musandam
