I recommend visitors can book both of western and eastern Salalah trips because we felt time was very proper for exploration one by one. Our tour guide gave us so much free time to explore by ourselves. To notice this trip without regular lunch time so we just picked light snacks, latte and cappuccino when passing some vendors.
Dear Mr. Jerry, Thank you very much for sharing your helpful feedback. We are delighted to hear that you had a great experience and enjoyed the the sights at your own pace. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you again in Salalah!
Hamid and his team are consummate professionals. Not only that, they are a lot of fun to hang out with! Having them as guides means you can really experience the beauty of Oman, and in particular the off the beaten track areas. Flexible and empathetic, Hamid has the gift of recognising what his guests will enjoy. I couldn’t recommend Amazing Salalah more highly.

Hamid and his team at Amazing Salalah are the perfect conduit to west Salalah, where the landscape opens out into expansive sheer mountains carved by the winds racing off the Indian Ocean. Some of the view points he took us to were absolutely spectacular, culminating with a lovely Omani picnic on one of the most picturesque beaches I've ever been to. Knowledgeable, polite, on time, and so generous with his time, I couldn't recommend Hamid and Amazing Salalah enough.

My journey through Salalah gave me a deep appreciation for Oman’s southern beauty. I explored ancient sites like Sumhuram and Al Baleed, learning about the region’s frankincense history. The contrast between desert dunes and lush valleys amazed me. Wadi Darbat was breathtaking-green hills, waterfalls, and even camels grazing by the river. The people were incredibly kind, always offering smiles and stories. The local market was filled with the scent of frankincense and spices. I never imagined a place could combine culture, history, and natural beauty so effortlessly. Salalah deserves more attention from travelers.

Fabulous tour. What a wonderful start to my holiday. I was picked up promptly by the guide (Said) and we went straight to explore Wadi Darbat. I took a boat which was excellent. Great for those insta photos. It was busy but a wait time of a minute!!! So no complaining here!!! Then headed to grilled meat ( the smell was divine) at the summit. Next to Jabel Samhan and a breathtaking view....saw so many camels wandering from one side to the other ... The landscape around looked so much like Wales UK ...or maybe Scotland.... Stopped along the way for snacks and drinks! The drive was chilled, the scenery blew me away. I did so much. Oh and not forgetting caves, sinkholes, zero gravity and a castle. Do ask for Said as he was an awesome guide. You won't regret it
