A day in a Muscat🌞 - 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

The perfect private day trip from muscat! - 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.

Trusted tour - 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.

My best chauffeur drive experience - 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 was exceptional, kind, and understanding. - 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.

Nice Experience - 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.

Green Mountain Rose Terraces - Can’t recommend Wabar Tours more highly - Saif was our guide to Nizwa and the Green Mountain, and was excellent, being very generous with his time and came up with some great suggestions for places off the set tour. The mountain villages and rose terraces were the highlight for me. Definitely worth doing!
