Discover the incredible oasis of Wadi Shab - one of the last places in Oman where you can chill in fresh blue water surrounded by mountains.

Start the tour with pick up from your hotel in Muscat or meeting point (depending on the selected option). Hop into an air-conditioned vehicle and set off on a 2-hour scenic drive through the otherworldly landscapes of Oman. Along the route, stop at a local coffee shop to try an energizing Omani tea. When you arrive at your destination, hidden away in the canyon of the dry river Wadi-Shab, take a very quick boat ride to the other side of the bank. From here, embark on your 40-minute hike. During the walk, experience the awesome power of nature which has forged the rock formations of this impressive canyon.

On the way back, stop to see a beautiful lake located in the Bimmah Sinkhole. Finally, return to the vehicle and begin the drive back to Muscat where you will be dropped off at your hotel or meeting point (depending on the selected option).

    MUST DO!! This was our favorite activity in Oman. Guide was on time to pick us up and was extremely helpful, patient, and friendly! It was extremely hot so be prepared for that. But that made the water even extra nice and rewarding. Plenty of free water available and the guide stopped and got us ice cream too. Highly recommend!!

    This is a fantastic tour but it does get extremely hot so definitely plenty of water and sunscreen needed. Once you arrive at the pool you can cool down and the semi strenuous walk is totally worth it. Water shoes are a must as the pool bed is pebbly and slippery. From here on as you proceed, there’s a spot to jump into the water from and if you have a great guide like we did they’ll show you the spots. The cave system is stunning and there’s another spot to jump from once you climb a rope up but careful as the rocks are slippery. Next on to lunch which was delicious before we headed to the Bimmah sinkhole which is spectacular and a nice way to end the tour Mahmood was a fantastic guide all the way through.

    Amazing trip to the beautiful Wadi Shab expertly guided by Jamal - with interesting insights into the local life and nature. Not to be missed . The Sink hole was not much to see by comparison - but on the way back. Definitely take the option of water shoes and phone/water proof camera case. And if you are not a strong swimmer the life vest is essential.

    My wife’s money was stolen on the tour. So NOT recommend this organizer, bevause the guide told me that is safe to leave any belongings at the entry of the pool. So we went to swim about one hour, after arrived back, the money was stolen. I write the office organizer what happened and help me, but no correct answer just silly chat to review my problem etc etc the guide told me that is safe and never stolen but looks like do that. So again, not to recommend this trip!
