Magica - Our tour was interesting and well organized. Our driver Mohamed was very kind and helpful, the food was good, and the atmosphere was magical. The restrooms and tents were basic but comfortable. We thank you very much — we will bring back a beautiful memory to Italy.

Absolutely recommended:) - For me it is already the second time in two months that I organize an excursion with Glory Tours. The first time was in early February 2025 and now in April. I carried out both the day with the night in the desert and the half day. In both cases I saw a great professionalism and knowledge of the place with all the explanations of the case. Yes you visit the fields with incense crops, the black dromedaries of the desert, the second time I also visited the old found city of ubar and then the wonderful adventure on the dunes with dinner, board to slide on the dunes and night in a tent (wonderfully adventurous). Well what about, both the first and second time it turned out to be interesting and beautiful and then our guide Ahmed was always kind and really helpful. Surely if I were to go back I would reuse the services of Glory tour or if I had to recommend them to friends who would like to make a trip of this. Thank you so much, you're great.

Such a great day - This tour is great for experiencing the desert. We took the overnight option, stayed in a tent, and enjoyed great food. The tents are simple, with shared bathrooms.

A magical night in the desert - Of the 4 excursions we took with Glory Tours Salalah this one is undoubtedly the most magical exotic ever! Ahmed our guide is a driving ace on the dunes! The starry sky the absolute silence of the desert will remain a unique moment and an unforgettable experience. The preparation of the meal cooked in a wood fire for a moment of exchange. The sunset over dunes that take on ochre tones is breathtaking. Alarm clock set at 6am to see the sunrise and the shimmering colors of the early morning. An unforgettable night an experience to make absolutely

Amazing Desert Overnight Tour! - We started our tour in the afternoon from Salalah and went into the beautiful desert. The whole trip was amazing, and we loved every moment! Our guide was a Bedouin, and he was very kind and knowledgeable. He told us many interesting things about the desert and his culture, which made the experience even better. We enjoyed watching the sunset over the sand dunes—it was so beautiful! Later, we had a delicious dinner and spent time under the stars, which was magical. In the morning, we saw the sunrise, and it was so peaceful and beautiful. This tour was well-planned, and everything was perfect. If you’re in Salalah, don’t miss this tour. It’s an unforgettable experience! Let me know if this works!

Wonderful experience! - Ahmed and his friend were amazing. 7 of us. Saw incense trees, black camels, tasted karak. Spent a night in the desert, self tent, fire. They cooked for us delicious food, made bread, tea, coffe. Wonderful sunset and breathtaking sunrise. Not depending on them of course, but very cold in the night. In this season just wear very warm clothes. Second tour with them, can't wait for the next ones. Thank you very much.
