    Our guided tour with Khalifa Awladthani was absolutely fantastic! The guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and shared fascinating insights about the local culture and history. Exploring the colorful markets, tasting local treats, and discovering hidden gems made the experience unforgettable. Highly recommended for everyone!

    From day one, Khalifa made us feel at home. We are so grateful for his kindness and hospitality. We did half day tour of Muscat with him, he was very knowledgeable and very detailed while visiting the city. We spent the rest of the week with his brother who was very nice and very receptive to all our requests. We are very pleased with his services. Always willing to help and accommodate us to make the most of this trip. Prior to the trip, Khalifa and I exchanged emails regarding my expectations and sites I wanted to visit. He then designed a tour for the entire week. There was no surprise, we did exactly what was planned, even more. For our last day, we wanted to visit the Turtles Island. Khalifa took it upon him to make arrangements and took care of us. I highly recommend Khalifa and his tour company ArabianDreamsTours. There’s no doubt that if we were to go back we will contact him. Go to Oman, it’s beautiful, people are super nice and it’s safe. We loved our trip!!!

    I have nothing but great things to say about my three days tour with Oman Vista Tours. I reached out to Khalifa three days only before my flight and on a such short notice he was more than willing to arrange and help with preparing a full itinerary for the duration of my stay. I definitely would not have seen Oman the way I did if it was not for Khalifa and also Marwan, both were punctual, accommodating and easygoing. Khalifa in particular enriched the experience with the various conversations that we had along the way and also the unplanned detours that were made on the spot during the tour to show more of Oman and what it has to offer. He also shared a lot of suggestions on activities that I can partake in based on my interests. Oman Vista Tour is made of a wonderful team and I am definitely going to recommend them to anyone who is planning on visiting Oman and experiencing it as it is meant to be. Overall, I really enjoyed my short stay and I am definitely planning on going back soon.

  • A memorable day in Muscat with Qais Al Sabahi

    Our half day Muscat City tour turned into an elaborate Full day trip with Qais Al Sabahi. Qais is not only knowledgeable about Oman and GCC but is also personable, smart and fluent in English (graduated from the US). By the day’s end we became friends exchanging more information- professional / social/ environmental over cups of coffee and dates. I would recommend Qais any day to English speaking western travelers.

  • Amazing times with Qais in Muscat

    This trip has been just so so amazing, had no idea we would be blessed wih meeting him as our guide an also was our friend by the end of the trip. He was more than helpful an so accommodative. Would advise anyone who needs a good tour guide must take his help to go around. He was more steps ahead than what we expected.

    I searched on tripadvisor. My family and I booked a 5 day tour around Oman. Khalifa was very welcoming and helpful. He showed us parts of Oman and explained traditions/history. It was indeed a memorable experience. He speaks good English and always willing to help.
