Great trip, Abdullah was an amazing guide. - Can’t really fault this trip. Information on pick up was provided well in advance and allowed us to plan. Van wasn’t too big and stop to pick up water shoes was very handy. I’d recommend you get them as They are inexpensive and make swimming/walking much easier. We picked up life jackets at start which are 1OMR each and were really useful do bring some small notes. Tbh I don’t think we could have done this independently and you could see others struggle who had done so. Abdullah really helped us negotiate the wadi and everyone in group enjoyed it. Lunch also very good. The sinkhole is spectacular looking but not inviting for a swim. The wadi is an amazing experience and the support on this tour more than justifies cost. The hike up and down isn’t too bad but bring good walking shoes as stony underfoot.

Wadi Sham/Bimmah - Guide was excellent and very patient with us all. The walk to the Wadi is a little challenging but not too difficult. Wear proper walking shoes is my advice! If you are not a strong swimmer the life preserver is a good idea. It’s stunning. I didn’t do the cave (I dislike enclosed spaces), I just did the first two pools. Swimming shoes definitely a good idea In the rock pools. Recommend this thoroughly The sinkhole is down steps and is spectacular. I didn’t swim, but the depth and clearness of the water was obvious.

Must-try experience for your Muscat trip - It’s a must-go place for the trip to Muscat, Oman. The walk into the wadi was magnificent enough, while the experience in the water is next level. January is not a hot season, but the water was not cold. It was really fun to swim all the way up and make it to the other side to see the fall. Our guide is friendly and helpful, making the trip hassle free.
