The trip was truly amazing! Although it was very hot and sunny, I would highly recommend doing this tour during the winter months when the weather is much cooler. Nevertheless, I cannot complain because the weather in Jebel Akhdar was pleasantly cool and refreshing. I loved every part of the trip—the places we visited, the breathtaking views, the shopping opportunities, and of course, the people of Oman, who are among the most humble and welcoming people on earth. Our tour guide, AbdulAziz, was absolutely fabulous. He was incredibly patient and accommodating, always mindful of the different needs and backgrounds of everyone in the group. For example, he made sure those who needed time to pray could do so comfortably, and he kindly assisted some of the women with their shopping and carrying purchases. He never rushed anyone and made everyone feel included and cared for throughout the day. Abdul Aziz was also very generous with his time, attention, and advice. He went above and beyond to ensure everyone was comfortable, answered every question with enthusiasm, and shared helpful recommendations about local culture, food, and places to visit. His knowledge of Oman was exceptional. You could immediately tell how much he loves his country and how passionate he is about sharing its history, traditions, and hidden gems. His stories and insights made every stop more meaningful and interesting. On top of that, he had a great sense of humor that kept the tour fun, relaxed, and engaging from start to finish. I also made new friends among the people on the tour, which made the experience even more memorable. If I return to Oman, I would definitely request AbdulAziz as my guide again and would happily recommend him to my friends and family. Thank you for such an unforgettable experience! 😊
A superb day out , visiting Nizwa fort and castle . Being expertly driven up and back down the mountain with full explanation by our guide and car enthusiast Aimen of how the 4 x 4 works . Seeing the fossils so high up indicates how massive that earth quake must have been. Followed by a cuppa and cake at the banana farm on our way back.
Overall had a great time. Fun experiences and beautiful views. Our guide Muhammad was awesome and guided us really well
Best experience ever. Nizwa is full of culture and lots to see. The views at Jebel Akhdar were immaculate, our driver Muhammad knew all the best spots for good pictures. We also had fresh rose season so made the experience even better. Our driver also took us to see the hundreds of thousands of date palms which was so beautiful to see! Pictures do not do justice at all
Amazing jam packed day with so much variety to keep us well entertained and opportunities for a whole stack of pictures. The tour gave us a lovely cultural feel and spectacular views of the mountain, the visit to the village was lovely, walking along the narrow path smelling those roses, we definitely won't forget, like the rest of the trip. The Turkish food provided certainly hit the spot. Our guide Mohammad was superb, making us all feel super welcome and always checking if he could do anything more for us, loved our conversations and what a driver!
A wonderful day pampered by the cares of our guide who with sympathy made us see the beauties of these places also complying with our small requests
Long day of excellent site seeing - with a first class guide; perfect getaway from Muscat into the beautiful mountains
Our tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable about the different places we visited. Great experience!
An Absolute Masterclass in Oman Exploration If you are looking for a seamless way to experience the rugged beauty of Jebel Akhdar and Nizwa, look no further. This was, without exaggeration, one of the best tours I’ve experienced in over 20 years of global travel. Mohammed was right on time for our Muscat hotel pickup. The 4x4 was immaculately clean, which made the long stretches of driving incredibly comfortable. He navigated the steep, winding roads of the Green Mountain with a skilled hand. His driving was exemplary and safe, allowing us to relax and soak in the views without a worry. This wasn't just a drive; it was a history and culture lesson. Mohammed provided superb commentary, sharing stories and facts that you simply won't find in a guidebook. He's a chilled and relaxed guide who truly went the extra mile to ensure we had a unique experience. His passion for the region is infectious. In two decades of traveling, few experiences have felt this authentic and well-managed.
We had an amazing time during our full day trip to Nizwa , Jabel Akthar ans Barkat Al Mouz. Our tour guide Essa was very experienced. Explained us minute details of Nizwa , its history , gave informative tour. The Jabel Akthar views were amazing and hike between the villages was memorable experience. We were mesmerised by the ancient irrigation system of Barkat Al Mouz.. The lunch was amazing Mandi Chicken Rice with Karak Chai on our way back. I would highly recommend this tour to everyone. And if you get Essa as your tour guide consider yourself lucky..
