Hisham versorgt seine Gäste mit ausreichend Wasser ( wichtig bei Temperaturen von fast 40 Grad!), kennt die Orte, wo es typisch omanische Tees und Kaffees, Süßigkeiten und Datteln gibt und führt einem in ein authentisches Restaurant zu einem leckeren Mittagessen. Auf seinen Rat hin haben wir das 1. Mal in unserem Leben Kamelfleisch probiert- Spitze 👍🏻 Am Ende ei...”

They customized everything according to my preference and manage the timing to suit me the best. The price of the tour is the same as Big Bus. I would strongly recommend this company to any tourists. I think the fact that they are new in the market makes them pay more attention to the customers now.”
