Arrive as a Guest – leave as a Friend - Ahmeds slogan starts with: "Arrive as a Guest – leave as a Friend." And that couldn’t be more true! Ahmed truly lives by this motto – from the very first moment, we didn’t feel like tourists, but like friends. With his warm and welcoming personality, he made every single tour a special and memorable experience. We joined him on the Salalah East and West tours as well as the desert tour – and we can genuinely recommend them all. Ahmed showed us the most beautiful places in Salalah, gave us a real insight into the Omani culture, and made sure we had lots of fun along the way. What makes him stand out is that he’s a local who knows the region inside and out, and he shares his knowledge with passion and heart. He’s flexible, listens to your wishes, and never rushes – everything feels personal and relaxed. On top of that, his service offers excellent value for money – fair, transparent, and more than worth it. Dear Ahmed, thank you so much for these unforgettable days – we truly arrived as guests and left as friends. Looking forward to the next adventure! Best Regards from Lucerne | Switzerland Anna & Max
