My guide Khalid AlRaqadi was exceptional. He was friendly, knowledgeable and highly professional. He served as my guide and driver for my all-day trip to Nizwa, Jebel Akhdar, and Barkat Almuz old village, and I felt very well taken care of. I had an amazing day, and I would highly recommend Khalid anytime you are planning a trip to the beautiful country of Oman.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a fantastic day with our guide, Khalid AlRaqadi, travelling from Muscat to Alila Jabal Akhdar. Our tour included Nizwa Souq, Nizwa Fort, Birkat Al Mouz Old Village and Jabal Al Akhdar, and every stop was absolutely worth it. Khalid was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and attentive throughout the whole day. He shared lots of interesting information about Oman, its history, culture and local life, while keeping the tour relaxed and enjoyable. What made the day especially memorable was Khalid himself: warm, genuine, patient and very easy to talk to. We never felt rushed and the whole experience felt very personal rather than like a standard guided tour. We can highly recommend Khalid to anyone visiting Oman. An excellent guide and a truly lovely person. We are already looking forward to travelling with him again in two days for our return journey! Thank you, Khalid, for a wonderful day and a great introduction to this beautiful part of Oman.
Mr. Azzanwas very helpful, we enjoyed
I took a busy vacation trip from Canada with my partner in December 2025. I had an amazing experience with Mohammed Salim. We did the Nizwa/Jabel Akhdar tour. He want out of his way to not only made us feel welcome but treat us like a family. We not only went to all the necessary places in our itinerary, he was kind to get us some dates and breakfast. We felt extremely comfortable with him and took great care of us. I connected with him like a family and was really inspired by his story. If you are in Oman, please go with Sunshine Tours, you will have a great time.
