Professional guiding & service! - Travelled with Omar to Nizwa, Sur, Wadi Shab, Birkat Al-Mouz, Jebel Akhdar & Jebel Shams in June for a few days. Had an amazing time & well worth it - especially the nighttime turtle watching at Sur & Jebel Shams. Definitely donā€™t give those a miss! Not knowing Oman, we had been deciding between going with one guide or booking activities across various operators. And it was the best decision to go with Omar, who gave not only flexibility in tailoring our itinerary, but also suggested options we could consider and delivered reliable, professional guiding with humour! Thanks much! Will definitely recommend travelling with Omar to any of my friends visiting Oman!

A memorable private tour in Oman. - A memorable private tour with Omar. Omar is very knowledgeable, polite, responsive & thoughtful. He was punctual and shared in great details of all the places we've visited. We ended the day with some local coffee and sweets. Such amazing hospitality. Never a dull moment. I highly recommend him

My wonderful tour with Omar to Al Jabal Al Khader - It was a wonderful experience, I had a great time in the rose farms in Al Jabal Al Akhdar, and the weather was wonderful with rainy and cool weather. In addition to this, the tour in Nizwa was a beautiful experience in the old markets and old buildings.

Great Adventure in Muscat - I really enjoyed the trip with Mr. Hamoud (WikiTours Adventure) to Jabal Alakhdar. The 4WD vehicle was convenient and the driving was excellent I didn't feel tired at all, on the contrary we had an interesting chat on the way. I have received a lot of information. I was stunned with the special sites and farms that he took us to. We enjoyed the roses season and the beautiful weather. Canā€™t wait to visit other places in Oman with him. WikiTours is highly recommended if you want to explore places in Oman.
