Continue to Shaat Viewpoint. On a clear day, see a 1,000m-high cliff; on a luckier day, the same view with clouds beneath you. Even in fog, you’ll enjoy cool weather, misty roads, and the raw power of Khareef at its peak. On the return, visit a Hidden Beach and marvel at its untouched beauty. We’ll also stop at an incredible viewpoint for sweeping vistas. The journey ends at Mughsayl Beach and Marneef Blowholes, where jet streams burst from rock formations, a truly awe-inspiring sight.

I had an amazing experience with Arabian Wanderers on my trip to Salalah! This was my second time visiting, but my first during Khareef season, and it was absolutely magical 🥰 Our guide Ghanim went above and beyond to make sure we had a wonderful time. The food was delicious, and the hotel in the mountains on our last night was such a lovely bonus! We were a small, friendly group, which made the trip even more enjoyable 😊 The itinerary was thoughtfully curated to include all the best experiences. It was my first tour with Arabian Wanderers, but definitely not my last — their service was exceptional from start to finish!

I recently traveled to Salalah with Arabian Wanderers and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The city is absolutely breathtaking — from its lush greenery to the magical waterfalls and the warm hospitality of the Omani people, every moment felt special. What made the trip even more meaningful was our guide, Ghanim. He is incredibly knowledgeable and well-educated, sharing so much about the history, culture, and hidden gems of Salalah. At the same time, he kept the journey fun and engaging, making sure everyone felt comfortable and included. This trip wouldn’t have been the same without him, and I can’t recommend Arabian Wanderers enough if you want to explore Salalah in the best way possible! 🌿💦🇴🇲
Salalah as beautiful as on the pictures
