Amazing private trip - My husband and I had a fantastic private tour with Ameer in Oman, visiting Wadi Shab, Wadi Tiwi, Bormankh Sinkhole, and Fins Beach. Although we didn't swim in Wadi Shab, the walk through the canyon was stunning. Ameer was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly throughout the day, making sure we were comfortable and sharing fascinating insights about the local culture. The sights were breathtaking, and Ameer's thoughtful guidance made the experience even better. Highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Oman!

He was so knowledgeable about the cities and history as we traveled. Amer was so patient and kind throughout the entire day. Helping to navigate in the beautiful water and light hike. I recommend ALL to try out this tour. Amazing sights, food and friendly tour guide. I would do this again!!!

Great experience at Wadi Shab - Fantastic tour to the Wadi Shab. Our tour guide Hamood was just great. He guided us through the Wadi very humorously and was always very helpful. We had a lot of fun. We can fully recommend the tour and Sunshine Tours Oman. We were with a cruise ship in Muscat, pick up in port was absolutely no problem

Faisal brilliant, excursion a bit crowded but would recommend. - Faisal was brilliant, really helpful and informative. Very knowledgeable being a local and could give us information on everything we were driving past. The wadi was beautiful, really nice walk, not too challenging and about 80% shaded. Would recommend water shoes, trainers would be a nightmare to carry as you’re in and out of the water. The cave at the end was a bit crowded as we came on a national day weekend, most pictures show 3-5 people at a time but we were in there with about 30 people which got a bit claustrophobic, especially if one person can’t reach an edge or panics. My partner is a strong swimmer but still having to tread water for about 10 minutes in a confined space is taxing. Overall, I would highly recommend, and I would insist that even strong swimmers take a life jacket, there are long stretches of water that are much nicer to just peacefully bob along rather than swimming from edge to edge. Again, the sinkhole was a bit too busy, but would be a lovely swim on a nice clear day. Would recommend to take a couple of snacks or fruits as no shops around, and 10 riyal cash just in case.

Letting go at WADI SHAB - Tour Guide Faisal was FANTASTIC, Wadi Shab is a tricky Trail , you need to walk 3.5 KM in rocky, dangerous trail & then swim 800 Meters to reach a beautiful place. Faisal was with us through the trail, he motivated the slow player & pushed the ones that could go to extreme, for example of our our friends was slow, he made sure that he completed the trail & I wanted to dive etc., Big thanks to Sunshine & Faisal.

A wonderful day - A wonderful experience in the nature. Wadi Shab was simply amazing: we had a fantastic time walking and swimming in a unique environment. We also had the chance to discover the beautiful Sinkhole and to have a dip at White Sands Beach. Khalid is the best guide possible, with his knowledge and kindness.

Wonderful way to experience Wadi Shab - Fasish was absolutely wonderful! He was so helpful and encouraging during the trip. The drive was through the mountains and was about 90 minutes to Wadi Shab. I highly recommend rugged water shoes, available for purchase there in the local currency, that you can wear during the hike and also swimming. Life jackets are also available for rent there, and I highly recommend them unless you are a skilled swimmer. A little ways into the hike which is mostly level, dirt packed terrain, you will leave your items and start swimming. After leaving the Wadi Shab area, we drive to the Sinkhole. It’s a small area and took pictures there. I highly recommend this tour and Fasish - a great way for us to create family memories with our teenagers!

Wadi shab day trip - highlight of our trip! - We had a great day today at Wadi Shab with Sunshine tours. The hike felt like a big adventure and Amer our guide did a brilliant job looking after us and guiding us through the wadi. He took us right up to the last pool and into the cave which was an experience not to miss! Next we had lunch at a local Indian restaurant. The food was delicious! Probably the best we’ve had on our trip! After lunch Amer took us to visit Finns beach and bimmah sinkhole which were great to see. Wadi Shab was definitely one of the highlights of our trip in Oman! Can’t wait to visit again!

A magical day in Wadi Shab - The tour was magical. Amer was punctual and we were on the road in no time. I was with my father who has some mobility issues and Amer was patient and took his time and was very attentive as we made our way through the Wadi. We made it to all three lakes and had a really great time exploring the beauty of the Wadi. When we finished from the lakes, we were surprised to find Amer had prepared a light lunch and snacks for us to enjoy which was very needed! When we finished from the Wadi we made our way to the Bimmah Sinkhole which is another beautiful site in Oman. 10 out of 10 recommend and 1000% would do this tour again with Amer as it was the perfect day!!
