Informative insight into Oman - Great and informative experience. Our guide went above and beyond. It felt like we were traveling with family. He showed patience and had lots of knowledge about each place we visited.

Extraordinary experience in Muscat! - We spent a half-day tour in Muscat with Loay, and we can say it was much more than just a guide: Loay is like a friend in Oman, always ready to fill you with tips, tricks and useful information to make the most of the city. We also discovered many curiosities about Islam, and he was super helpful to explain everything. The tour was impeccably organized, from breakfast together (nice surprise) at the bustling fish market, to visits to iconic spots such as the Grand Mosque and the bustling Corniche of Muttrah. If you have limited time, this tour will allow you to immerse yourself in the main points of interest without haste (right pace). He speaks excellent English, the car is comfortable and the routes are well optimized. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to discover Muscat in an authentic and thoughtless way: it is definitely one of the best tours we have ever done!

Great Muscat city tour! - A great city tour of Muscat. Loay was a brilliant guide who took us around the city. Highlights included the Grand Mosque and the souq. Went to a local cafe and had Omani tea with saffron and a selection of Omani bread (a filled crepe style dish). If you want a snapshot of Omani culture then this is the trip for you. Would recommend!

Best excursion to see the real Oman! - This is by far the BEST excursion. It was 4 hours but I got so much information and knowledge about Oman! Got authentic tea and coffee and got to see all of the sites at my own pace. I've traveled to 85 countries and this is up there with the top 3 of the excursions I have ever done. Please take this excursion. You will not regret it!

Great introductory tour of Muscat - Glad I booked this tour as an introductory (first trip to Oman) tour of Muscat. My tour guide Assad was knowledgeable, personable, and I really appreciated his “no rush” style of touring. I was happy with all the sites we visited, but wanted to point out these two: - The mosque. Stunning. - The Souk and fish markets. I was very happy with my experience and immediately booked another private tour visiting other sites in Oman.
