5.00We had a great experience with Samir. The Sultan Qaboos mosque was a particular highlight and so was Rozna restaurant.
Badar showed us the main points of interest (palace, mosque, sukh, view point, marina, opera).

5.00The City Tour with guide Badar was absolutely top! The 6 of us ( 3 couples) enjoyed a 6 hours plus City Tour of Muscat with a superbly competetnt guide.

He answered all our questions and showed us hidden gems we’d never have found on our own.Our guide , was punctual, organized, and deeply knowledgeable about the region’s history and traditions. His enthusiasm made the tour both educational and enjoyable. Exceptional tour experience from start to finish.

5.00What an excellent tour and highly recommended. We were treated to a seamless half day Muscat City Tour with our wonderful guide, Saif, who spoke perfect English and was very polite and informative. We were collected by a spacious air conditioned car and had the privilege of visiting the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque with its stunning architecture. We then explored some highlights of Muscat including the Fish Market, the Souk, the old port with Portuguese forts. We then had a great short tour at the opulent Royal Opera House-we would love to return one day to watch a performance! Thank you very much. A super end to our stay in Oman.

5.00Having moved here for work, I haven't had much time to take in the scenery. It was wonderful to explore the scenic spots of Muscat with my guide, Ali. He took the time to share his knowledge about the sites and the daily life in Oman. Really friendly, good spoken English. Would highly recommend the tour and the tour guide.
