Vé di động
Cross the desert dunes by 4WD vehicle, and experience the adrenaline rush of driving across the rugged terrain in an off-road mode of transport. Make your way to the Wahiba Sands to see the traditional homes of the desert nomads and Bedouin tribes. Keep a look-out for the nomads as they move through the desert with their camels. Visit a Bedouin home in the middle of the desert, and contrast the arid landscape with the clear, blue waters of Wadi Bani Khalid. Enjoy a relaxing siesta in the shade of the palm trees, and catch a glimpse of the pretty villages scattered across the slopes of the wadi. Marvel at how the houses cling precariously to the rugged mountain side. Bring your swimming costume to take a dip in the inviting waters!

Cần Quan Tâm
Wadi Bani Khalid
Wadi Bani Khalid is one of the best-known wadis in the Sultanate of Oman.[ Its stream maintains a constant flow of water throughout the year. Large pools of water and boulders are scattered along the course of the wadi. As a geographical area, the wadi covers a large swathe of lowland and the Hajar Mountains.
Wahiba Sands
Wahiba Sands desert is a highlight of any trip to Oman. The impressive orange sand dunes offer a unique experience, especially at sunrise and sunset. Therefore, I recommend an overnight stay! Road from Muscat to Wadi Bani Khalid 2:30 Hours minutes per way Below is my guide to plan your visit: access, tips, map, photos and Wahiba Sands camps.

5.00Confirmation of tour and pick up time the night before. Start with desert trip, then a great buffet restaurant for lunch to finally relax at Wadi Bani Khalid. Asaad really looked after our group with patience and taking his time for us to enjoy our memorable experience. Thank you, Asaad.
Great time on the tour

5.00A great way to see a few of the landmarks in Eastern Oman and learn a good amount in the process! The desert was incredible. Our tour guide, Khalid, really made the experience great by being knowledgeable, friendly, lively, and showing us a great example of Omani hospitality. Would recommend!
Worth it!

5.00Khalid is an excellent guide who went above and beyond the entire day to make sure we (3 solo travelers) had a great day! He picked us up and dropped us off promptly and made sure we were hydrated in the heat. Wadi Bani Khalid is underwhelming but it’s a nice swim. The dessert is enchanting. He took us to a nice area for sandboarding and sunset! Oh and there was a camel ride and walking a camel around too. Please tip the camel attendants. They are standing in the heat all day and the payment (like 3/4 Riyals) goes to the Bedouin family (which is also tiny amount)! Khalid took bunch of photos and videos and entertained us all day!!! He even got us Karak and sweet bread through out the day! Very very kind and nice.
Wonderful full day tour

5.00It was such a fun day trip, thanks to Mazin. The desert was fantastic. We met locals for coffee and dates, saw camels, drove the dunes, sandboarding, and watched a beautiful sunset. Food was great, and we highly recommend this tour for all.
Nice Places - Long Drive - Short Stay

3.00Total trip time was 10 hours for us since our hotel was near Muttrah - would be 1 hour shorter for most people. We spent ~30 mins in the desert, 30 mins at a side-of-the-road lunch spot, and 1 hour at the Wadi, meaning 8 hours in the car. The desert was an experience - we're glad to have seen it. 30 mins was more than enough for us - maybe better at sunset. The wadi was beautiful, but was tainted by very loud construction going on right beside the water, which also affected the air quality. Many women were not allowed to swim because of "inappropriate" swimwear. Would recommend to wear shorts and a tshirt to avoid any risk. Overall, the time at the locations is far too short to justify the drive. We were lucky to meet a nice couple who we spoke to for most of the drive that made the commute bearable. If I would do this trip again - I would hire a car, skip the desert, and go to a Wadi much closer to Muscat instead. With this trip, you're really paying for a driver who can take you in and out of the desert safely and can give you some information about the locations.
Fantastic day out

5.00This is much better for outdoor swimming than Wadi Shab. Although it was very busy there, it was big enough that there was plenty of space to swim without feeling crowded. The desert was amazing; although I’ve seen desert before, this is the first time I’ve been able to run barefoot in the sand. The sunset was stunning. Our guide, Hood, was a great driver. There were only four of us in the group and I was lucky enough to be with a lovely, extremely friendly group of people.
Wonderful day tour

5.00It was wonderful, experience in Wahiba Desert and attractive driving. Swimming in clear blue pools, and dramatic mountain scenery in Wadi Bani Khalid.
A great day in nature in the desert

5.00This was the most wonderful day swimming in the refreshing waters of Wadi Bani Khalid, lunching in a Bedouin dwelling, sand boarding down the dunes and watching sunset over the desert. This is a long day - at least 10 hours, so have a good breakfast. Good idea to bring water shoes for the wadi and sun screen. Ahmed was a brilliant guide - thoroughly recommend him.
