Privé begeleide balkonwandeling van een hele dag Wandelen naar Jebel Shams

Experience a breathtaking canyon right on the footsteps to the Gulf's highest mountain - Jebel Shams. Our guide picked us up at our hotel in a convenient 4WD vehicle, and he graciously assisted us throughout the 4H hike, making it a safe and memorable day for a family with small children.

We had Ahmed Alghamri as our guide for the hike into Oman's Grand Canyon! He is professional, engaging & knowledgeable.

Our amazing tour was supported by Mr Yousuff who was so helpful and kind. Thank you so much for a perfect hiking and road trip day!

An amazing experience! The guide offered and carried extra water and snacks and was a huge help at the end of the trail when the route to the lake was less obvious. Prepare for three hours each way in the car (the mountain bit windy/bumpy) and about five hours to leisurely do the hike. A clean restroom stop is provided before and after the hike, with more primitive portable toilet options closer to the start. Spectacular views and an interesting abandoned village! Animal lovers will appreciate the goats along the trail looking for a small snack. The hike is at approximately 6500 feet of elevation with many rocky steps going up and down. A fun adventure outside of Muscat!

This was such a lovely experience! While we had backpacks with the supplies we needed, our guide kindly carried extra water and snacks for us. (So technically we didn’t need to bring anything other than ourselves) While the majority of the trail was straightforward, it was extremely helpful to have guidance to get to the small lake after the abandoned village. If you’re interested in that, expect to climb up some larger boulders. Totally doable, but make sure your knees and hips are feeling good before hand. The views were spectacular and it was really interesting to see the abandoned village. For animal lovers, there are multiple goats that hang out hoping for snacks from hikers along the way. Prepare for a three hour car ride each way and approximately five hours to do the hike while leisurely taking photos. The mountain roads are windy and bumpy at times, so take appropriate measures if you tend to get carsick. A clean restroom stop is provided at the village before and after the hike and there are a couple of portable toilet options closer to the start. Really loved this adventure outside of Muscat!

We had a great time doing a balcony walk! The guide knew great spots and overall hike was an amazing experience! The guide was very knowledgeable about the area and shared interesting facts about the place. Highly recommend it!

We had an amazing hike with Jihad, can highly recommend the tour. The trip from Muscat was a bit longer than expected, but it was good.

Hiking in Jebel Shams is incredible. The Balcony walk was amazing, the views were awesome! Our tour guide, Ahmed, was also very good. From pickup, to taking us to the hike and back, it was all very smooth. He gave us all the important details and very patiently waited till we completed the hike and came back.

What a wonderful hike! Totally recommend it to the families who like a bit of exercise and gorgeous views. The walk is only moderately challenging, so perfect for children. Thank you to our guide Ahmed, who took us there and made this day easy and special for us.

Jebel Shams was a great hike an incredible to see the deep wadis, rock formations, historic village remains and the spring water at the end. Youssef was a great guide and was very patient with us as we took extra time to see a world heritage site village and when we needed more time for more coffee :) all around awesome day!
