What people love about Active Tours in Oman
- The Ultimate Oman Private Adventure
We traveled through the Wadis, Desert and Mountains program offered by Gidoman, and got a lot of unforgettable impressions. Hotels, a comfortable minibus, the level of guides - everything met our expectations. We fell in love with Oman, the tourist route gives an idea of the natural, historical, cultural features of Oman and its differences from other countries of the Persian Gulf. A confident five stars!
- Muscat Jewels 5 Days – Oman Tour Package
Super fun trip. Got to see so much of Oman in just 5 days. Our driver and tour guide suleiman was really nice and easy going. He even let us see places that weren’t necessarily on the itinerary. 10/10 experience. I will definitely travel again with Oman city tours.
- Tour Dina | 5 Days Package
Oman is Great. So are the people. The tour touched relevant areas in Oman and gave a good overview of the country. Unfortunately the guide told us little information.after the tour I read things about our stops that would have been great to learn while we were there. Mostly probably because his English had serious limitations. He hardly understood questions. I would have wanted more time in the desert. Just over night was too short. And the mentioned dune bashing was not on offer. Tips on what to bring would have been helpful. E.g. wet shoes to wear in the Wadi Shab Trip. There were a lot of painful pebbles to walk over.
