We did a tour with Hajer in Muscat. we were traveling with a group of 9 people including small children. Hajer made it a nice tour for both adults and children, where we saw the highlights of Muscat in a short time.
On the way we had interesting conversations about Oman and the local culture.

A great way to see more than just Muscat
Yousuf provided us with a great day out. He was communicative with details before the tour and arrived at our hotel on time (was flexible to change the meeting point for pick up and drop off at our hotel which was out of the city centre). He was also flexible enough to focus on what we wanted to do given we had to be back in the hotel than the planned tour end. His car was perfect for a long day out, so we were comfortable the whole day (and perfectly clean!). The 4WD drive was so much fun and he helped us with our gear so we could all enjoy swimming in the Wadi. Thanks Yousuf!

A brilliant way to see Muscat at night
Yousuf was our guide for a day of exploring Muscat and it could not have been better. He arrived at our hotel on time (was flexible to change the meeting point for pick up and drop off at our hotel which was out of the city centre) and provided us with with a local’s guide to his city, including the best spot to see the sunset. He even provided guidance as to the best time to start the tour to make sure we saw the sunset. He wanted to know what wanted to see but Siri gave his local suggestions. A great way to see Muscat at night, which is definitely worth doing. Thanks Yousuf!

A brilliant exploration of Muscat
Yousuf was our guide for a day of exploring Muscat and it could not have been better. He arrived at our hotel on time (was flexible to change the meeting point for pick up and drop off at our hotel which was out of the city centre) and provided us with with a local’s guide to his city. We ended the tour feeling that we had a great taste of Muscat given we only had a short time in the city. He even gave us some tips for a different tour the next day. Thanks Yousuf!
