Great Tour with a Knowledgeable Tour Guide

5.00This is a great tour that doesn’t take up the whole day and you still get to see some very interesting sites. Our tour guide Issa was very articulate and kept the group engaged with historical commentary and funny facts. Issa was very friendly, helpful and patient. All my questions were answered thoroughly. I would recommend everyone to add this tour to their Itinerary when visiting Salalah.
Very nice City Tour. Seen...
