5.00To do! I recommend Mohamed.
This is truly a must-see if you're in the world, and when you have an excellent guide like Rachid, it's absolutely fantastic!

5.00This is truly a must-see if you're in the world, and when you have an excellent guide like Rachid, it's absolutely fantastic! Be sure to be in excellent physical condition and wear water shoes with a good grip, as the rocks can be very slippery, but the scenery and swimming in this Whadi make it well worth it. Even though it was Ramadan, we still got a delicious hot lunch to eat in the van. Our group was 10, which was ideal. Thanks again to Rachid for guiding us safely through everything. The stop at the sinkhole was nice to stretch your legs, but it's certainly not a must.
An exceptional guide,...

5.00We booked out tour through GidOman and had the pleasure of having Rashid as our guide for thr day. We were part of a larger group, and Rashid was incredibly personable, professional, friendly, and charming. Despite there being some weaker swimmer in the griup, he remained patient throughout and made sure everyone felt safe and supported. Rashis is a credit to GidOman. To top it all off, he kindly treated the whole group to ice cream after a long day exploring the Wadi's and the Sinkhole-such a thoughtful gesture that made the experience even more memorable!
Great Day

5.00Wadi Shab in itself is very beautiful, so the walking and swimming offers you amazing views. Besides that our guide Mahmood took really good care of us throughout the whole day. I was even more impressed when I saw him collect garbage from Wadi. He explained to me that he and his colleagues do this every day. That is admirable from them, but sad that they have to do this every day. Unfortunately there is quite a lot of trash around, here and there. I encourage everyone to take your garbage with you and do not leave it in the nature.
