A stunning building crafted from beautiful, white sandstone, the mosque has five minarets and a huge central dome – the surfaces of which are intricately decorated with classic geometric designs.

5.00We spent the day with Jamal, and he was an incredible guide! He was extremely helpful in navigating at Wadi Shab and when we toured the Grand Mosque, Opera House, the Souq and the Palace, he allowed us to enjoy the sights while he taught us about the history and took pictures for us. Truly an incredible experience.

5.00It was my first time in Muscat and I wanted to remember this city. To do this, I reviewed many companies that are engaged in excursions and decided to stop at Gidoman . So, I didn't regret my choice and it was the coolest ride of my life. Our guide Ilya, talked to us very interesting information about the city sights. Most of all, I liked the Corniche Road and the old market. We took amazing photos against the background of snow-white beautiful buildings like in the tale of Aladdin. I want to say a huge thank you to the company Gidoman for what you do, I will recommend you to all my friends!
