Excellent historic tour with knowledgeable tour guide, Said. - Said was our guide for this tour and he did a good job answering questions and telling us about the historic sites. There was a lot of ground to cover so we moved along quickly and efficiently. This was not a leisurely tour.

Memorable Day Trip - Yassir was everything we wanted in a tour guide and then some. He had an encyclopaedic knowledge about Oman, and shared with us all about this fascinating country. His pride for his country surely came through. He took us a on a tour of the incredible forts and castles that made this country, and we were deeply immersed into its storied past and influences. We had asked for a local place instead of an expensive touristy spot for lunch, and Yassir delivered. You'll definitely be in great hands when Yassir is at the wheel.

Great tour - recommended - We had a great day with Khalid. It makes such a difference when a guide is prepared to answer our endless stream of questions and Khalid did just that. A well paced, well planned day. We learnt a lot of history and a lot about Omani life. Thanks Khalid!

Private tour islamic forts - I recently had the pleasure of experiencing a private guided tour of Islamic forts with my family, and it was an unforgettable journey through history. From the moment we met our guide, it was clear that we were in expert hands. The guide was not only incredibly knowledgeable but also engaging, tailoring the experience to the interests and ages of everyone in our group. A special thank to Mousab!

Personalized experience with a local guide - A MUST - My private tour with Ahmed was fantastic! He's a skilled driver and a wealth of knowledge about Oman and Nizwa. We loved how he tailored my itinerary in real-time to my specific needs and shared insights into local culture. This is my first time in Oman and he made it a completely fantastic experience. Definitely want to come back to Oman.

Awesome tour guide! - I recently booked two private day trips with Oman Landscape Tours, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. The first trip focused on Oman’s rich history, covering Nizwa, Nizwa Souq, Nizwa Fort, Bahla Fort, and Jabreen Castle. Each stop was fascinating, and the tour gave me a deep appreciation for the country’s cultural heritage. The second trip was tailored to my request to have lunch at the Anantara Hotel in the mountains, and it included a visit to the historical village of Al-Sugra - Sayq. Reaching this remote village was challenging, as the roads are narrow and covered with crushed rocks, requiring a special vehicle. Thankfully, the driver, Said, was exceptional—highly experienced, skilled, and knowledgeable about the terrain. This tour is perfect for those who enjoy a bit of adventure, and I was thrilled by how smoothly everything went. Oman Landscape Tours made both trips unforgettable, and I’m truly grateful for their professionalism and attention to detail. The price ratio is great, especially in comparison to other companies. Highly recommended!
