“The frankensence museum was closed and the guides didn't know till we got there. Shopping seemed to be the target of our guides and they were more than happy to introduce us to their villagers. We finally convinced them that ending the tour one hour early was not acceptable and they wound up taking us to a water fall with no water and not to the falls on our agenda.”

“Our tour guide, Monther, was excellent. He was very knowledgeable and informative. He explained a lot about the Omani way of life and was open to our many questions This was an all day activity and Monther was very flexible in terms of what we wanted to see and of our physical ability, even starting with us at one place and then going back to get the car to meet us at a different place taking our age into consideration He took us to good photo spots and a great local place for lunch. We highly recommend Monther and this particular tour”
