Review of Oman’s private Wahiba Sands and Wadi Bani Khalid tour, with desert driving, Bedouin culture, swimming, costs, timing, and tips.

“Muneer and the team at Sunshine Tours Oman provided us with an exceptional Full-Day Private Wahiba Sands Desert and Wadi Bani Khalid Tour that exceeded our expectations. Muneer's vast knowledge of Oman's history, culture, and landscapes was impressive, and he tailored the tour to suit our preferences and interests. We started the day with a scenic drive through the rugged terrain of Wahiba Sands Desert. Muneer stopped at various points to point out interesting geological formations and give us insight into the local Bedouin culture. We also had the opportunity to take part in exciting activities such as dune bashing and camel riding, which was a unique and thrilling experience.…”

Thank you for your kindness and generosity.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 19 reviews · 9 hours · from $200

Review of Muscat’s Wadi Bani Khalid and Wahiba Sands tour, with swimming, lunch, 4WD dune driving, and an optional quad bike ride.

“Overall, it was a nice trip. Our guide, Muad, was very friendly and warm. Quad biking in Wahiba Sands was very fun. The walk to Wadi Bani Khalid was very scenic. The buffet lunch was delicious too. However, I’d like to suggest some improvements. When booking this package, I contacted the team to make sure there was enough time for all activities, while getting us back to Muscat in time. They said yes. However, they couldn’t deliver this. There wasn’t enough time to do dune-bashing after the quad biking. The trip should be planned with more structure to ensure there’s time for all activities stated in the package.”
