- JHJacqueline· October 25th, 2019This tour is a good way to see Oman beyond Muscat. Lots of time in cars, but some of this, such as driving through the desert and the canyon are part of the experience - it isn't just let's drive from A to B. There was downtime/own exploring time...

Your advice on the driving and it's purpose will be great for prospective travellers. Kind regards The Explore Team
Trip date: October 2019 - AJoanna· May 17th, 2019A brilliant trip which gave a good overview of Oman. There was a lot of driving but it enabled us to see a lot. The camping locations were amazing - yes, there were no facilities but we woke up on the beach, on the dunes and in the desert, so all well...

- ARebecca· May 17th, 2019The trip was excellent and thoroughly enjoyable. The provision of free bottled water throughout the trip was great and saved us having to purchase along the way.

- APaul· May 17th, 2019You might want to review the beach on the second night camping. It was a lovely beach but sadly it was absolutely covered in rubbish which was such a shame. There was even rubbish in the sea which really puts you off swimming.Explore! commented on this reviewThanks for your feedback and review!Trip date: December 2017Review collected by Explore!
- ACaroline· May 17th, 2019Lunch boxes every day would have been better than the restaurants that weren't equipped to cope with us all. Slow service and OK food. Lunch boxes in some of the sights would have been much more enjoyableExplore! commented on this reviewThanks for your feedback and review.Trip date: December 2018Review collected by Explore!
- ABarbara· May 17th, 2019B'fast and dinners in the desert were excellent. In sharp contrast, the lunch boxes were not that great. Too much food altogether, too many carbs. More fruit would have been welcome.Explore! commented on this reviewMany thanks for your comments regarding the food and as part of our ongoing assessment of each trip we do look into these comments seriously to see where improvements can be made.

- ADavid· May 17th, 20191 or 2 members were a little surprised by the basic nature of the 3 nights camping but they clearly had not read the trip notes. For me it was a highlight of the trip.Explore! commented on this reviewGreat that overall you enjoyed the trip and thank you for pointing out how important it is to read the trip notes before embarking on our trips.
