The Lead Partner of the company ( Tahia) was very attentive and responded to questions quickly. Excursion tour guide was friendly. For this trip, it’s good to be prepared to swim and hiking to the pool & waterfall is about 45 to 60 min one way.,
This trip was so good and the guide was very friendly. The guide tell us about oman history and culture and a lot of other stories. He gave us time to see a lot of places and taking pictures and wondering around. We were very happy about this firm! 😊
Was amazing, you need to be able to swim to reach the end unless you wear a life jacket. The swim is moderately difficult but well worth to reach the cave at the end. Also swim shoes or runners are needed for the rocks in between swimming.
I enjoyed excellent service from Majed when booking and from my guide Nasor on this personalized trip to Wadi Al Shab (as the main landmark). I have described the trip in detail on my personal blog. I can highly recommend the said services and would love to see more of Oman in the future.
We spent only 4 days in Oman and we were wondering what can we do in such a short time. So, we write an email to Vacation Packages Oman and Majed from the agency helped us planning everything. We chose two tours Whaiba Sands and Wadi Bani Khaled & Wadi Shab and Wadi Tiwi. Our guide, Mr. Suleyman was very nice, very patient and an excellent driver. Oman is an absolutely amazing country with stunning views and unique places. People are very polite and helpful and we felt safer in Oman than in our hometown. We have to come back for sure to see the rest of the country!
