OUTSTANDING BOAT FRIENDLY CREW - Outstanding boat experience with Ahlam Musandam Tours! The boat was spotless, well maintained, and had plenty of space with much-needed shade. The crew was friendly and professional. Loved the big cooler box for our drinks and the complimentary coffee, tea, and fruit ☕🍵🍌🍊! There was even a fresh water shower onboard such a nice touch. We've tried similar tours before, but these guys have the best boats, no doubt. 🙌 We did the 4-hour fjord tour, but they also offer full-day and overnight camping trips with all meals included. Highly recommend! We’ll definitely be back.

Beautiful scenery and dolphins! - Amazing scenery. We did a half day trip and saw lots of dolphins as well as the spectacular mountain landscape contrasting perfectly with blue sea. Khasab is such a relaxing place and if you visit we (myself and kids 11,18,19) recommend this trip on the Dhow. We also stopped to swim and saw Telegraph island as part of the trip. Very friendly crew, comfortable Dhow with cushions and carpets - water, drinks and fruit were provided.

Best experience! - One of the most incredible experiences. Dream encounters with dolphins which were plentiful. Incredible time spent swimming near coral reefs in beautiful waters and fish . Mesmerizing mountain landscape. The family loved it! The tour company was the best. Helped guide us when we got lost, waited kindly for us when late, very kind on the tour with fruits, water , soft drinks, snorkeling gear , life jackets, floaties, you name it. Best of all a wonderful restaurant recommendation to the local fish market and Yemeni restaurant. Thank you! We will be back!

A day to remember. - Our trip was amazing. Very competent staff at Ahlam Musandam tours. From Eldho for checking up on us the morning to both Nirmal and Jahangir for excellent and professional service on the dhow. They are excellent tour guides. The scenery was beautiful and the encounters with dolphins made it all a day to remember.

Unique boat trip - Very well organized boat trip. All the staff tried very hard to get the best out of this tour. We saw dolphins several times and also lots of fish while snorkeling. Overall, the boat trip was comfortable and we would repeat it at any time. Thank you very much for the wonderful hours.

Small group - perfect for children - Very nice guides - It was a really nice trip! We were picked up at the harbor and driven to the Dhow harbor. There we got on a small Dhow 😍 with just 2 other people! It was fantastic! After a short time we spotted dolphins. The boats were circling and the 🐬 were playing in the waves of the boats. The boat captains whistled and encouraged the dolphins to "play". Simply beautiful 😻 We drove on to the snorkeling stop. It was worth it. Lots of colorful fish. Equipment was on board. Afterwards there was a freshwater shower. We went further into the fjord to see even more dolphins 🤩🤩🤩 and only one other boat was there -> the Geissens 😂 Robert Carmen and the kids. The world is so small. The guide explained a lot! Every question was answered. We were treated very courteously and friendly. Thanks again for that! In between there was always water, fruit and Khawa Coffee 😍 It is soooo delicious! On the way back to the ship my husband went to a supermarket with our driver and, on the driver's recommendation, got a can of Arabica Kahwa from Mumtaz. Coffee from Oman - a dream for spice lovers 😍 We would book it again and again 👍🏻🙏

Decent Experience - decent enough cruise for a half day. The views were great and yes, we saw dolphins but we were only in the water for ~30 minutes and there was definitely no snorkeling. Also, the refreshments are LIGHT so definitely bring snacks.
