Our guide was knowledgeable and clearly loved his country. We saw a lot and learned a lot. Excellent guide and what we saw was indeed fascinating.
Our driver was great. An older Omani native who you can tell loves and appreciates his country. The tour was great and we had enough time at each location to look around and take photos. I would recommend Mr. Rashid to everyone!
Guide's English was not very good. He could have been more informative.
