5.00Great tour and tried a lot of new foods like Omani bread, dried kiwi and Omani halwa (very different from Indian halwa!). Mutrah souq and the Mosque were very cool.

5.00Strictly necessary to have a guide by car in Muscat because the neighborhoods are so scattered. You get around smoothly and safely. I had a long transit and then went from the airport ToR then there was an extra fee for it.
A Wonderful Introduction to Muscat

5.00This tour was a great way to get a general impression of Muscat. It was a semi-private experience with only four guests, which made it feel relaxed and personal from the start. Our guide, Said, was friendly, knowledgeable, and had a great sense of humor, which made the day both informative and fun. After an early hotel pickup, we headed to our first stop, the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque—absolutely stunning and a true highlight of the tour. From there, we visited several other highlights that Muscat has to offer, each adding another layer to understanding the city. A small but memorable moment was tasting authentic Omani bread, which gave a lovely local touch to the experience. Muscat is a truly unique place, rich in culture, natural beauty, and warm, welcoming people. This tour captured that spirit very well. It was an enjoyable and well-paced tour that I can highly recommend, especially if you enjoy small group tours with personalized service. I will definitely be visiting Oman again.

5.00Abdullah took care of me in the best way! Drove around between the different tourist destinations. There are great distances so you understand that car is necessary.
Oman is a must see with Said!

5.00We booked a half day city tour with Said before we arrived in Muscat. Before arrival, Said had made contact with us and introduced himself. On the morning of the tour we were sent a live location of Said so we could track his arrival at our hotel. During the tour Said was knowledgeable and friendly and made sure nothing was too much for us. We would highly recommend a half day trip with Said and will look to book with him on our next trip to Muscat
Highly recommended!

5.00It was a very interesting city tour in Musket. Said from Two Brothers Adventures talked a lot about the city and Omani culture. Through the very friendly, accommodating and authentic way Said has given the feeling of being welcome in Oman!
