The Great Tour - We were very fortunate to have Adil as our guide for the classic attractions of Muscat. His extensive knowledge made the tour incredibly engaging and informative, allowing us to gain a deeper understanding of Oman's long history. Choosing him as our guide was undoubtedly a wise decision.
