- Marion· April 7th, 2025The tour itinerary was very good it covered all of the main sites. Pick ups and transfers were seamlessly and communication was good.Show more
- Jennifer· April 4th, 2025Excellent arrangements but disappointed in paradise village resort in GoaShow more
- Murat· April 24th, 2025It was a very fulfilling trip. We had no issues anywhere, all went smoothly. Our driver and guide Sayeed was a real pro, seems like he knew every single person in Oman. Good company and good driver too. Although we were somewhat knowledgeable about the country, it was still better than what we had hoped for. Wonderful and friendly people, nice clean cities and towns, hotel accommodations very satisfactory, unique country and diverse culture. It was all very worth it. Would not change much if we were to do over.Show more
