- Wadi Shab - One of the most stunning wadis in Oman, where water has carved its way through rock over centuries, creating deep gorges and freshwater pools. From the parking lot, a 45-minute hike along the wadi leads to the deep aquamarine pools at the back of the valley. Please be aware that you will need to walk through water towards the end of the hike, so appropriate footwear is recommended. Enjoy an afternoon of swimming in the pools.
- Bimmah Sinkhole - Located in Dabab village, 113 KM from Muscat. There are various stories behind the formation of the sinkhole. Local inhabitants have a legendary story that a meteorite fell in this location, as its name in Arabic “Hawiyat Najam” translates to “The Falling Star.” However, scientific research conducted by experts and geologists has confirmed that the crater was formed as a natural consequence of the interaction of dissolving limestone, which contains carbonate, with water, resulting in the collapse of the earth’s upper crust layer.

Very well guided to the end of the whadi , to end in this splendid cave, where we took full eyes.

Wadi Shab - unique experience - We had a great tour with our tour guide Nassar who showed us Wadi Shab. We were out early and Nassar showed us some hidden spots. This allowed us to escape the crowds of tourists. It was a unique experience, thank you very much!

Highly recommend - incredible tour - Amazing! This tour is a must-do. Our guide, Said, was incredible. He was friendly, well-informed, and flexible. The place is breathtaking; crystal clear waters, incredible landscapes, and a great hike. We loved this tour and highly recommend everyone to visit. Go early to beat the crowds, basic swim skills required & reasonable fitness level for trekking (approx 45 - 1 hour walking).

Hypnotic Oman 🤩🤩 - Wonderful day at WADI Shab with Nasser who knows the place perfectly. Thanks to him I discovered WADI differently. He showed me exclusives. Visit and swim in the cave and see what only Omanis know. I spent the day with Nasser who remained attentive to my expectations. Did not hesitate to leave the course to show me other wonders of Oman. 2nd stay in Oman but not last. Oman is wonderful. I recommend Nasser.

Wonderful experience - I recommend 100% the experience of Wadi shab. Privatized tour with a guide with little care. The guide adapts to the desires and the weather.

Wadi Shab best birthday hiking trip 💦 - Amazing nature, what a wonderful experience. After a 30-40min walk you find a Canyon Pool and you follow it into a stunning cave. With our guide Nasser we were always safe and guided just in the best passible way. 😁🤩

Amazing tour to Wadi Shab - We had an incredible tour to Wadi Shab with Nasser! The hike was scenic, the swimming in the crystal-clear pools was refreshing, and the picnic lunch was a perfect touch. Nasser was a fantastic guide—knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. Highly recommend this experience!

recommended tour + hints - Amazing landscape. Totally worth it. We were lucky that we made the tour off-season. It can get very crowded and some passages in the water are very tight. Stone/ground in the water is very slippery, it‘s helpful to wear shoes or be able/ used to climb. Recommend that you wear a T-shirt in the water and to bring changing clothes. No possibility to lock personal (valuable) items while in the water, so recommanded to bring waterproof bag or leave valuables in the car.
