Excellent
Our guide was Moosa. He was on time for pick up and text me the night before with details. He was very friendly and encouraging during the wadi/ cave swim. My friend was quite nervous as she gets claustrophobic but he was super patient. He brought water bottles for our hike and carried them and also offered us dates for energy. Overall experience with Moosa was excellent and I would really encourage everyone to go see the wadi. There is no admission fee but u do pay a small fair of 1OR for the boat ride. The hike is quite difficult but only due to the heat not so much due to the terrain.

Fun adventure in Oman
Had a great day trip with the best guide Fauzi. The Wadi Shab was beautiful and a great adventure, with a mix of hiking and swimming to get to the cave. Fauzi knew the best routes, and helped us through the more tricky spots where we needed to be careful. We also stopped at romantic cave and white sands beach, spotting turtles in the water at a distance, and finished off at bimmah sinkhole.

A great experience all round!
Another lovely day out with the wonderful guide Moosa. The tour was great, although part of it was beyond my comfort level as I do not like heights and narrow ledges. However Moosa showed great patience and care and got us to the second pool. It is very beautiful. White Beach is outstandingly beautiful! The Birimah Sinkhole is amazing. Just be prepared to descend and climb back up! No problem for the young and fit!

Wadi Shab is a great day out. A comfortable smooth 1.5 hour drive to wadi Shab and then a hike to get to pools. The hike is worth the views amazing landscape.Our lovely guide Fozi was so knowledgeable on way and really looked after us during hike making sure we safe and happy at all times. We had such a fun time. Beautiful views and swims through all pools. Then onto gorgeous which sands beach then onto Bimmah sinkhole for another much needed cool dip. Whole day was very professional and very recommended 😊

A fantastic time with Khalid!
We visited the Grand Mosque, Wadi Shab and the Sinkhole in a private tour organized by Sunshine Tours Oman and our guide was Mr. Khalid AlRaqadi.
Khalid was very knowledgeable, kind, patient and accommodating. We are so grateful for how he connected us to his culture, customs and people during the tour. He was also a joy and pleasure to spend time with. He was so considerate and kind that he prepared us cut melons and mangos to eat after hiking in Wadi Shab.
We had a fantastic time with Khalid and we would highly recommend him!
