Me and my cousin were happy to have Hamood as our guide for 3 days in Oman. We visited Muscat, Nizwa, Jebel Akhdar, Wadi Bani Khalid, and Shariqa sands. Hamood was a great guide, funny, down to earth, and a fountain of knowledge. Highly recommend Sunshine Tours!

If you haven’t been to the dunes, this experience is definitely worth taking (Bedouin house was nice + you can walk up the dunes to see the landscapes). If you have, then this trip won’t add much - very few things are included (eg no dune bashing) and may not be worth the 3H drive from Muscat just for that. Wadi Bani Halid was good, but beware that it is overcrowded during holidays, so timing is key. Overall time spent in car on the day was indeed longer than time spent walking outside, so this is smth also to consider. Otherwise the tour lived up to our expectations, our driver/guide Nasr was very knowledgeable and accommodative.

We were picked up on time from our hotel in Muscat by Muneer in a Toyota Prado and it turned out to be a great trip. Muneer had knowledge about almost everything and anything we wanted to know about Oman and he was a very good driver. The Wahiba sands was a sprawling desert and the vehicle took us inside the desert a few kms near all the dunes where we could run up and down. We also visited Bedouin house. The desert looked lovely and driving inside was fun. Then we drove to the Wadi Bani Khalid and as it had been hot I jumped into the water. It was amazing swimming in the lap of nature. I had carried towel and swimwear. It was really refreshing. We were tired by the time we reached back to our hotel after a great day. Thanks to Muneer for being a great guide. I am happy we went through Sunshine.
