"We had a wonderful day in Muscat with Nasser as our guide. He picked us up from the hotel on time and showed us all the must-see spots in the city. Nasser impressed us with his extensive knowledge of Oman’s history and culture, which he shared in an engaging and insightful way. We particularly appreciated his friendly and helpful demeanor. In the souk, he not only helped us find the souvenirs we were looking for, like frankincense and scarves, but also negotiated great prices with the vendors. We highly recommend Nasser as a guide. Thank you Nasser! 😊"

"We visited Muscat by night with Hajer yesterday. The tour exceeded our expectations. Not only she showed us the city, but we had a chance to taste some local delights, a very nice touch. We are very happy she'll shows us another side of Oman tomorrow. Thank you!"

"We did the Wahiba Sands and Wadi Bani Khalid day trip together with Yousuf. He was very friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. We had a great time and we can highly recommend Yousuf as a tour guide. It was a pleasure for us to meet him. Thanks Yousuf for a wonderful day."

"We had a really good time touring Muscat with Hajer. She gave us an excellent overview of the city, as well as plenty of helpful advice prior to and after the tour. That helped us a lot navigating Muscat and Oman. She took us to both the big sights, in addition to some hidden gems for lunch and dessert. "

"We really enjoyed the tour with Hajer! She planed an individual tour for us perfectly suited to our wishes. She showed us Muskat trough her eyes, we loved all the food and places she took us to. Would recommend 10/10"

"Me and my husband had a private Muscat city tour with Hajer for 5hours. Our guide took us from our hotel with her stylish and well air conditioned car and drove us around the city, stopping in all major sightseeing spots. We are kind of gastro travellers, so we really enjoyed being taken to some spots for different local dishes and drinks. Hajer also addapted our tour to my husband's desperate need for a shisha :) she took us to a shisha bar and it was absolutely the best shisha we had in Oman. Relaxing at the bar, we learned a lot not only about Muscat, but also about Salalah and Oman on the whole. What is more, Hajer has beautiful and strong personality!"

"Hajer is a GREAT guide! She showed us all of the highlights and had plenty of info and personal background to add to everything we saw. We really liked that she showed us the tea and street food scenes in Muscat in addition to the sights. Hajer is engaging, informed, very open and friendly--she has all of the qualities of a great local guide and it's no surprise that she has so many high ratings here. Book her if you visit Muscat! We will again when we return."

"Hajer is a fantastic Guide. Great communication from the outset. We arranged a bespoke tour with 4 of us travelling together. She met us at our hotel in her blue Maserati and drove our huge 4x4 hire car with great Omani skill! Hajer is passionate about Oman and shared local foodie insights which we would never have experienced without her guidance...and we LOVE our food! Ice Cream in the sweltering heat! Mendazi and Oman chips - yum! Iced coffee and teas! Karak Chai! Mishkak on the beach ... skewers of delicious marinated meat (lamb and chicken and quid) fresh from the BBQ. The next day we enjoyed Haneeth in her favourite restaurant ...the main ingredients include basmati rice, lamb and chicken and a combination of spices. Followed by Qahwa coffe and deliciously sweet Halwa (our fav were the fig and honey varieties). Apart from the amazing food on the first afternoon we visited the Royal Palace, Al Mirani Fort, Muttrah Souk and enjoyed sunset on the beach before enjoying our beach BBQ. The next morning we visited the Grand Mosque - AWE INSPIRING! - and the Royal Opera House before we had lunch followed by the traditional sweets. You can't go wrong with Hajer - highly recommended! Thank you for showing us the Muscat highlights!"

"My trip to Oman was amazing to begin with, hands down, would relocate to tomorrow as an expat if there was a physician job available. And furthermore, the Omani people are the most hospitable, genuine and gracious people I have met in all my travels. However, to top it off, Hajer, I promise you, will be one of the fascinating, accomplished and just WONDERFUL people you will ever meet. I had the most memorable and wonderful time with her over the course of two days. Highly recommend the city tour with her as well as Nizwa. It truly is like spending two days in a magic place with a friend you have known forever. I HIGHLY HIGHLY endorse, Hajer. I miss her already and certainly will be back to see her wonderful country in the future. "

"Hajer is a lovely knowledgeable lady who showed us around Muscat in the evening. A beautiful sunset and good local tasting. My husband loved the car ofcourse 😄 We strongly recommend Hajer for exploring Muscat. Thank you for a great evening!"
