    This tour was even better than expected, thanks to our great guide, Sayeed! The tour itself gave us a wonderful overview of Oman's beauty but it was Sayeed who made it so outstanding. His personal touch made us feel so welcome & comfortable, the time flew by. A fantastic & fun experience. The vehicle was really comfortable & Sayeed is an expert driver. The ride in the canyon & along the steep mountain road the last 2 days were amazing. We'd highly recommend it.

    The decision to book a private tour was exactly right. We learned a lot about life and culture in Oman. Our tour guide was super flexible and also gave us plenty of time to explore the area. Thank you very much Said, you made our trip very special.

    Communications with MTA were very good. From the moment I stepped off the plane to the second I returned to fly out, everything went flawlessly. Lodging was very good. Transportation was excellent. It was just me and my driver-guide so we enjoyed flexibility in the schedule. This was especially important due to early rains which shut off some sites due to flooding. My guide was a font of knowledge and intent on making my visit seemless and enjoyable. My cautions would be if you are mobility impared, this isn't the tour for you and do not go between mid to late May and mid September. JOB WELL DONE
