Worst tour in Oman

The most expensive and worst of all the tours we had in Oman. Spent all the money for nothing really! Horrible service!

The great outing!

Intense but beautiful day. We bathed in the cool waters from Wady and walked on the desert sand at sunset. We saw camels and Bedouin houses. Our guide was very nice with good English and made us spend a nice day. Council

The best Oman day tour experience

We had a splendid day tour of the glorious Wahiba sands and the mesmerising Wadi Bani Khalid with our tour guide Jihad. He picked us up from our hotel and we had the greatest time with him till the time he dropped us back in the evening. He introduced us to the oman culture and history, showed us various spots even on the way to our destinations, provided us with delicacies and coffee regularly and it was a pleasure having conversations with him about everything. He took us to great places to dine at and also captured photos and videos of us whenever we asked. The Sand dunes were glorious and Jihad made sure we had fun when we were driving through the desert. The Oasis we saw at the Wadi Bani Khalid is the most beautiful destination we have come across and we even got to swim in the clear water. Overall it was the best day of our tour and it was all thanks to the wonderful company of Jihad.

Unforgettable tour with amazing tour guide!

Our trip to Wahiba Desert and Wadi Bani Khalid was an incredible experience, thanks to our amazing guide, Jihad, who went above and beyond to make our day unforgettable. From the start, Jihad’s professionalism and warm personality set the tone. His deep knowledge of the region, its culture, and his genuine passion for sharing Oman’s beauty made the journey exceptional. In the Wahiba Desert, he guided us to stunning photo spots, a local Bedouin house for tea, and shared fascinating stories. At Wadi Bani Khalid, Jihad showed us the best swimming spots and hidden gems in this oasis paradise. His attention to detail—ensuring we were comfortable, hydrated, and capturing perfect photos—made all the difference. If you want a mix of stunning landscapes, adventure, and cultural immersion, this is it. With Jihad as your guide, you’re guaranteed an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!

A pleasant and well-organised day.

The company took action and in less than 12 hours had organized two jeeps for our group. The cars were clean and comfortable. The guides were discreet but precise in explaining many aspects of life in Oman. They led and pampered us among the desert dunes and then into the wadi where we refreshed ourselves in the crystal clear waters. Recommended experience.

Wadi Bani & Wahibi Desert Safari

The hotel pickup was right on time, and our tour guide Abdulla was very friendly and professional. He gave us great information on the various sites. He also told us some interesting facts about some of the Omani culture. We had terrific day- Wadi Bani Khalid and the Wahibi desert should be on the “must see” list for any visit to Muscat or the surrounding area. Highly recommend the late morning tour so you can the sunset from a Wahibi sand dune.

Great experience with Oman day tours and travels

I and my family recently went on a 1-day tour to Wadi Bani Khaled and Wahiba Sands desert with oman day tours company and had an incredible time. Our guide, Mr Siad, was knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating throughout the entire trip. He has kept us engaged through out the tour and also has a lots of stories about JINN. The tour started with a scenic drive to Wadi Bani Khaled, where we were able to swim in the crystal-clear water and explore the beautiful surroundings. Saeed provided us with interesting insights into the history and culture of the area, and we felt like we were learning a lot throughout the day. After that, we headed to the Wahiba Sands desert, where we were blown away by the stunning sand dunes and vast expanse of the desert. Mr Siad was an expert at navigating the challenging terrain, and he made sure that we were safe and comfortable throughout the adventure. Overall, I would highly recommend this tour company to anyone looking to explore the beautiful landscapes of Oman. The tour was well-organized, the guide was excellent, and the experience was truly unforgettable. Thanks again to Mr Siad and the entire team for an amazing day!
