Wadi Shab, Dolphin and Snorkelling

4.00Spent a lovely day in Wadi Shab with fabulous guide Abdullah. Really enjoyed our day and the company made sure everything was provided for us including life jackets for nervous swimmers. We also did a dolphin and snorkelling trip the next day and again everything was organised to perfection. Would highly recommend this company for their organisation and helpfulness.
Fabulous and unique scenery for hiking and swimming!

5.00It had been raining heavily in April the week before we went hiking/swimming the Wadi Shab, and I was under the impression that there's not usually so much water. Most of the hiking was actually through shallow water (I would definitely bring something other than tennis shoes). The trail was mostly clear of debris and easy to walk - other than an occasional slippery rock or two when crossing the water. When we finally reached the swimming "pool" at the end, we swam through an entrance that looked almost too narrow. There was room enough for one person to go through at a time, but definitely not for the claustrophobic! The current was swift and strong (again, I believe this was unusual due to the rain), so we clung onto the walls, then swam back out. This was definitely an activity I would recommend in Oman!
Incredible experience, not to be missed

5.00I genuinely mean it when I say this is one of the best things I've ever done. I don't want to spoil the surprise as it's half of the charm, but Wadi Shab is a wonderful hike, swim and trek - Abdulla was such a great guide, we couldn't ask for more
wonderful excursion

5.00Faisal was an amazing guide, really friendly and was very patient. I would use your company again and will ask that Faisal be our guide when we come to visit Muscat again in the future to vist Wadi Bani Khalid. Thank you for assisting us at very short notice. Travelling to Oman is always a delight and we will recommend you to others who travel to Oman too.
