4.00Excellent guide, really friendly and very helpful. He cared a lot to make sure I had a good time. Very informative. It was a surprise to find the opera house museum had closed early and I knew we couldn’t get into the mosque, so it really was fine and I thoroughly enjoyed the chance to see around this great city.
Great introduction to Muscat

5.00Our first tour with Mr. Nasser was a day tour in Muscat. It's short, just four hours, and is a great introduction to the city. Main sights are the Sultan Qaboos mosque, Muttrah Souk, and the Opera House. If you decide to take a longer tour with Mr. Nasser, you will be in for a great time. We later booked a two-day desert, Nizwa, and Wadis tour with him and were very happy. Consider this Muscat tour your gateway to more experiences with Choolo Tours.
