Located close to the city’s original fish market, built in 1960, the new market marks a continuity of the region’s trade and fishing traditions, while also fulfilling Oman’s need to accommodate for the country’s growing tourism industry.

We had a full day in Muscat with Sameer. We loved the Grand Mosque and the market with local veggies and the fish. We finished the day with a lovely lunch. Sameer understood some changes we had to make according to kids. Thanks a lot! Marketa Sofie
We had an amazing experience both on our half day muscat city tour and full day tour to Nizwa and Jebel Akhdar. Tahar was a very knowledgeable and friendly guide who planed a great, individually curated itinerary for our group. We learned a lot about Omani culture and history. We highly recommend this company to anyone visiting Muscat. We look forward to returning and exploring more of the country.
Tahar gave us a wonderful explanation and we saw Maria Callas in the opera house her ghost He did a good job Friendly and very open It's worth more than five stars You could ask him anything
Very good trip well organised pickup form Hotel and drop back to hotel including all fees and food. The driver spoke very good English and was very friendly. In a new country like Oman this service is highly trusted for international tourists. The car had water and chargers and the driver was also explaining things and mentioning historical facts.
Had a fabulous day on the city tour. The Muttrain fort was really nice. Obaid was really friendly, knowledgeable and helpful with the shopping in the souq. Will recommend him very highly to all my friends. Enjoyable tour.
Saeed was very humble and kind. He show up before time and follow our request accordingly. I suggest him strongly
I had the pleasure of being driven around the city of Muscat by Khalid, who I can confidently say was the best chauffeur driver I have ever experienced throughout my years of travel around the world. His attention to detail, hospitable personality and knowledge of the city is second to none. I will definitely be requesting Khalid as my chauffeur driver the next time I make a chauffeur drive booking at the Kempinski Hotel.
Khaleed's service was exceptional, he gave us a full history brief of almost every historic building and was very knowledgable. He offered us karak chai which was amazing and took us to beautiful places and took pictures of us without any problem. He was very kind and understanding, didn't rip us off like every marketplace shopkeeper we ran into and didnt pressurize us into buying anything. Would definitely recommend.
We booked this tour in the morning and were very happy with the confirmation. Mohammed Alshmali was our your guide and he took us to all the places and the whole experience was excellent. He also took me to Ameer Al Mandi restaurant so that I could try the shuwa which was delicious. I would highly recommend this tour and appreciate Mohammed Alshmali for his services.
