The tour was terrific! I was returning from Phuket to London via Muscat flying by Oman air. I had small stop of 20 hour and then I decided to explore Muscat by booking small city tour. (4 hour tour) The tour guy was really kind and passionate on his job, he managed to show me mostly all the landmark attractions and help me out by booking the taxi to the airport! Well done, Great job! Definitely I will returned to Muscat! Alex

Khalid was a great guide! Really knowledgeable and friendly, he made the whole experience great! We enjoyed the tour and we learnt a lot - thank you so much. Also quick advise for all tourists: you need to be covered when going out (covering legs and shoulders) to respect the local culture. When visiting the mosque, you can rent clothing to fully cover yourself for 6€, which is helpful!
