EXCELLENTBased on 53 reviewsRobert2024-11-08My lifetime girlfriend and I had a wonderful experience with Rehan and his team. Our driver picked us up in Dubai and safely drove us across the border into Oman. The border crossing was seamless and easy, all the details were taken care of! The next morning we were taken to our dhow boat for our overnight cruise. What a great experience! Iman and Mohar are the best crew we could ask for! The whole experience was original, comfortable, and unique .The snorkeling was very enjoyable. Mohar seemed to be able to call the dolphins to us. We saw so many playing alongside the boat. The food, snacks, and drinks were much more than we expected, all served with a smile. Having our own Dhow for the evening was such a treat for us. The view of the stars, the sounds of the dolphins breathing at night, and our comfortable bed truly made for a memorable time. The next day the mountain safari took us high above the fjords for a completely different view of this beautiful area. The restaurant for lunch was great and we were taken to the airport with plenty of time to catch our flight! Overall an excellent trip well organized and very reasonably priced!!Kim Dodaro2024-11-08I am happy to share with everyone about what an amazing time we had thanks to Rehan and this amazing company and the people who he has working with him to provide incredible experiences to their guests!!!! My partner and I were so fortunate to have Rehan organize a seamless, easy transfer in a very comfortable van with a very safe driver from Dubai to Khasab on the Musandam Peninsula in Oman! All the border crossing formalities were taken care of and were seamless! We then spent the most incredible night on a traditional wooden dhow boat and were so well taken care of by the captain Iman and his assistant Mohar 💖. . This could not have worked out better for us and it far exceeded our expectations! We got to enjoy the most adorable dolphins swimming and performing alongside our boat, and they seemed to be attracted to Mohar! They just kept coming back! The snorkeling from the dhow was amazing !! The food on the dhow boat and the experience of sleeping overnight under the stars in the fjords of Musandam were an incredible experience. We then were taken on a mountain safari through the spectacular mountains of the Musandam Peninsula!! Every detail was taken care of and we just got to enjoy everything without any worries! Thank you again to this amazing company for an incredible experience. We highly recommend the company Musandam Trip to anyone who wants an unbeatable experience at a very affordable price with all details perfectly organized!!!Erra Jayaram2024-11-08Excellent Trip, Must visit enjoyedКирилл Масалов2024-11-06We (two families, 9 people total.
