Bellissimo tour del deserto e del wadi, la nostra guida eccellente, ci ha accompagnati ovunque con grande dedizione, professionalità e gentilezza. Ci ha fatto scoprire posti unici che non saremmo riusciti a esplorare da soli. In più non essendo dovuto ci ha offerto la colazione e uno snack a base di prodotti tipici locali. E inoltre ci ha dedicato più ore del previsto senza mai metterci fretta durante il tour. Siamo stati fortunati ad incontrarlo.

Unser Fahrer Khalil war super und ging auf unsere Bedürfnisse ein. Schade war, dass in der Beschreibung von GYG nicht erwähnt war, dass man in dem Wadi nur mit Ganzkörper-Badeanzug baden kann; das führte zu großer Enttäuschung. Auch kommt in der Beschreibung nicht klar rüber, dass man mehr oder weniger den Tag im Auto verbringt.

Ein wunderschöner Tag im Traumland Oman! Unser Guide Khalil war nicht nur sehr freundlich sondern auch Kompetent und hat uns viel über die Kultur, das Land und Leute erzählt. Wir haben uns sehr gut aufgehoben gefühlt und haben traumhafte Landschaften gesehen. Der Ausflug in die Wüste war wunderschön und das Baden im Wadi unvergesslich!
