Very good activities. The wadi and the chasm were beautiful. We had to walk 45 min to get to the Wadi. You need to bring bottles and suitable shoes. Our guide Khaled was incredible. Very kind, helpful and professional. He gave us very good advice and also taught us a lot about the history and culture of the country. We were a group of 4 girls and we felt safe and comfortable with Khaled. We highly recommend this guide for your excursions!
