Great tour - Loved this sunset cruise with Captain Bilal. Punctual, informative, professional, gentle. Really recommended for sunset lovers

Lovely and relaxing experience - We got on the dhow style boat and were lucky as it was only about 25% capacity so we could swap sides as the views changed. The water was so smooth it was amazing (and lucky as I get sea sick on a pedalo!) and the captain expertly drove us between viewpoints and then cut the engine so we could take in the view and get our photos without pressure. We had dates, water and soft drinks on board which was very pleasant as we cruised past various forts, watchtowers and palaces before turning back at the main port and cruise terminal. The sun by now was a dim yellow glow just above the ridgeline and after it disappeared we headed back to the Al Rowdha Marina. The narrative doesn't really explain how pleasant and relaxing this trip was, the early evening being warm rather than oppressive combined with the fantastic views and calm seas made it a memorable experience. The crew were all extremely polite and decent and the boat clean and comfortable, with either a cushioned floor area or seats to sit on.

Amazing - Sunset tour with Bilal was amazing, beautiful sunset with guided tour of Muscat city. Bilal was very friendly and a great host.

Beautiful to witness sunset from a boat! - A wonderful way to conclude our trip! This local tour of Muscat's coastline is not to be missed in Oman - we were shown around lots of forts, the palace and down to Muttrah to witness Muscat from the water. The sunset was amazing and the tour was very relaxed and informative. The captain had great English and told us some new things about the area - would definitely recommend QTours for an amazing holiday!

Breathtaking! Very Peaceful! - My husband and I enjoyed this cruise tremendously! We were in Muscat in September and it was very warm. However, we wanted to experience a cruise, despite the fact that we would probably be sweating during the whole trip! Yes, you are hot while you are waiting on the wharf and, just a tip, be sure and bring a printed (or on your phone) copy of your confirmation with the Qcode. There were many boats going out with tours and if you don't have your exact ticket, you won't get on the right cruise. How thrilling to be going out on an actual dhow! We were visiting Oman primarily to see dhows (Sur) and experience a short cruise on one. I couldn't believe we could board a dhow!! There were about 20 plus people scheduled for our tour, and yet, the boat never felt crowded. At first, I sat at the front of the boat on the bench, not wanting to move so that I would have a great view throughout the trip. However, it was totally unnecessary. Whether you stay on the main level or go upstairs, side, middle of the boat, it doesn't matter. Every place you are standing, sitting, will have a great view for photos and sightseeing. Everyone moves about throughout the cruise. You might be warm leaving the wharf (in September and summer months), but as soon as you get out on the water, a nice wind picks up and cools you off. So peaceful and relaxing! In the beginning, most people were chatting among themselves and the buzz about the boat was high with excitement. Then, gradually, the Sea worked its magic and people began to relax, quiet and just enjoy the beauty and the stillness of Oman. Everyone just went into a calm mode and listened to the quiet of the boat motor and the water lapping at the dhow. All your cares seem a mile away. Either side is fine for photos. You will see things from both sides of the boat and you can easily get up and move to the other side when you're on the "wrong" side for the next photo. You can also climb into the front bow of the deck for lots of fun photos. The captain knows exactly when to stop the boat for the best sunset views. Suddenly, the boat turns and there is a brilliant sunset! We were lucky and as we were leaving the area, the boat suddenly slowed, turned, and there was another completely different sunset view. Sadly, a fairly quick return to the dock and reality. Once you are back, it is dark and the lights illuminate the dhow for even more spectacular photos when you disembark. All in all, an excellent evening, fabulous tour company and wonderful experience! Had we been in Muscat longer, we certainly would have signed up for at least one more tour with QTours. Highly, highly recommend!

Golden Hours along the Muscat Coastline - Viewed the dramatic and picturesque coastline of Oman from the Sea of Oman on this spectacular Sunset Cruise. It was certainly a memorable experience- despite the rough and choppy seas that we encountered on our return trip .

Not suitable for aged people and young kids - Not so good experience with family, had aged people in the group and captain Bilal was not bothered, he was doing some driving the boat fast and doing some acrobatics which scared the aged people on the boat. Boat was also over crowded with no proper protection or safety. Tour is not ideal for aged and people who have hypertensive or heart issues, people should be warned before accepting this booking. Never in the details it is mentioned that it is not suitable for elderly people or people with hypertension and heart issues.

Could have been much better... - Watch the front place in the boat, its a free shower space.... I was not so much mezmarized by visiting hotel from the sea, i would have prefered to visit more auththentic place...

Fun for little kids - Very nice office staff and communication. The boat ride is good for families with little kids I think. I was not fun for adult travelers and not a romantic or peaceful experience. It's for kids to run around and have fun...which is fine...just not what I was expecting.
