5.00We were lucky because we were the only two on the tour so we got the experience with a private 4x4 private tour. Our guide was very informative and lovely and even organised chairs for the last site we saw.
Just fabulous

5.00Private day with our guide Mahmoud. Visit the city of Taqah the fort the small hotel which also acts as a museum reconstructing a typical Omani house. On the way to the point without gravity we experienced this strange phenomenon! Once again the wonders of Omani nature have been offered to us: dromedary donkeys goats free. Majestic century-old baobabs, pungent acacias and tamarind trees with such tart fruits. The view from the Jebel Samhan plateau is impressive. The plain stretches as far as the eye can see. We ended our day with Wadi Darbat. An oasis of softness crystal clear water and waterfalls with glittering reflections. A green paradise in this rather arid environment. The delicate flora is present. A day with a few moments of walking on rocky trails but nothing insurmountable!
Amazing recommended tour
