Muscat, Oman
View on Google MapsAll day trip, pick up & drop off at hotel. Adjusted the tour to accommodate I was staying in Nizwa vs Muscat. New, clean comfortable car, great driving, overall enjoyable experience specifically Hamood, the guide. Very pleasant, friendly and accommodating. But also with Mohamed, the owner adjusting for the custom pick up location and Analiza handling all the planning & booking details. Exceptional experience all around. I would work with them again when I return and would highly recommend to family & friends.
The ride there was super comfortable. All thanks to our bus driver Tarique. The fort was beautiful and Hamood explained us the history very beautifully and patiently. He managed our time perfectly so we could have a really great time.
It was interesting to spend Time at Nizwa fort and our guide Hamood Al Kulaiby was very good in explaining us the significance of the same
Hamood has been a fantastic tour guide and I would recommend him if you want to experience Oman adventures. And know the history.
This visit was an excellent experience, especially the time spent at Nizwa Fort and its souk, which was one of the highlights of our stay in Oman. The atmosphere of the souk, the architecture of the fort and the authenticity of the place made this visit both fascinating and enjoyable. What truly made the difference was our guide, Mr Badar Alhasni. He shared a great deal of knowledge with us and took the time to explain many aspects of Omani culture, traditions and history. His explanations were clear, interesting and always adapted to our curiosity, which made the visit very enriching. We especially appreciated the moments of discussion and exchange with him where he helped us better understand daily life in Oman, local customs and the historical importance of Nizwa. His approach was friendly, engaging and never rushed, creating a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere for the whole family. This visit was both informative and enjoyable, combining cultural discovery with genuine human interaction. We highly recommend this experience, especially with such a knowledgeable and attentive guide.
A well planned fort that gives you a glimpse into the kind of lives Omani royalty used to live. Also got to try and shop for halwa and dates at pretty fair prices, thanks to Hamood. He took us to the right shops and also gave us a detailed tour of the entire place and made sure he went at the pace of our very large and rather slow group. Really appreciate him!
The entrance fee does feel slightly on the higher side, but walking through the fort and the Imam’s residence was still enjoyable. What truly made the visit meaningful was the guided history walk by our tour guide, Hamood bhai—without it, the place might have felt quite ordinary. His storytelling added depth and context to the experience. The nearby souk is perfect for picking up local souvenirs, from Omani halwa to an endless selection of dates. The ancient irrigation system at Birkat Al Mouz was another highlight and definitely worth seeing
The entry fees could feel a bit on the higher end but exploring the fort and the Imam's house was a good experience. If not for the history walk by our tour guide, Hamood bhai, the place would have felt forgettable. The souk is a great place to buy souvenirs like Omani halwa and about a thousand different types of dates. The irrigation system at Birkat al Mouz was also interesting.
We had a lovely experience with our tour guide Hamood. Heshowed us around the plae sharing all the details and stories related to the Fort and its history.
Went to Nizwah Fort, Soul, the abandoned Village and the oldest Irrigation system. It was interesting and enlightening at the same time . The Nizwah Souk was smaller that I expected and did not have the number of stalls or the variety as in the Muttrah souk. Nevertheless the pottery stores were unique and here. The irrigation system the fort and the abandoned village were the highlights for the day. And our Tour guide Hamood Bhai was flexible to accomodate last minute changes in our plan. He made our day even more interesting and engaging for all of us. His has in depth knowledge on the history of Oman and neighbouring countries. Both Hamood Bhai and the Driver Tariq made our day memorable. Oman is a must visit place
