Dhofar International tourism helped us create a customized private tour for Salalah and the Dhofar region. Salim was an amazing tour guide. He made our time in Salalah and Dhofar amazing, special, and memorable. He went out of his way to care for our needs. He shared great information of the sites and places we visited, and we broke bread and shared great food. He was truly and ambassador for his country and this beautiful region of Oman . His hospitality was top notch. Salim was a big part of why we fell in love with Oman, Salalah and the Dhofar region.
