Sunset and cloud of stars on the edge of the Omani desert.

With this excursion, you will go as close as possible to the dunes at sunset, to touch the “desert” experience from the box of doights. On the way out, we could see loblolly trees, black camels and the lost city of Ubar. Ali Qahoor, our Omani guide, for a day, was very welcoming and gave us many anecdotes about the Dhofar region, but also about life as an Omani.
Desert trip was very nice with a lot of smiles at the sunset time

Had a great tour in the desert with Mohammed Ali. He was kind and entertained us in this trip. Dune bashing was great fun and he also took us to see the stars! Watching the sun set in the desert is an unmissable experience!

The experience was very unique and felt authentic to the Omani people’s life style. The camel meat and milk were a first for me and the Arabian coffee was a nice touch. Our guide was Abo Salim and he added a very pleasant atmosphere. Would highly recommend!
Wonderful Tour Guides, Disappointing Booking Experience

Both Abo Salim and Anna were wonderful guides — friendly, knowledgeable, and went out of their way to make the experience enjoyable once the tour actually happened. The scenery in the Rub Al Khali (Empty Quarter) was stunning, and their hospitality made it a memorable trip. However, I want to warn future travelers that there’s an unlisted minimum-participant requirement for this tour that is not disclosed on Viator’s website. I was informed by Beautiful Salalah Tours at 7:35 PM the night before that my booking would be canceled unless I agreed to pay double to turn it into a “private tour.” That last-minute notice left me without options to rebook, and Viator provided no real assistance in resolving the issue. I ultimately chose to pay the higher price because I didn’t want to lose the experience altogether — but travelers deserve clear, upfront information about pricing and minimum requirements. I hope Viator updates their listing to reflect this so others don’t face the same situation.

Lovely day out in the empty quarter with Abu Salim. Abu Salim was a great guide sharing a lot about Oman tradition and way of life. Note: We were staying in Mirbat which made it a rather long journey and lots of driving. Probably best to be station in Salalah if you wish to do that trip as it would reduce driving time or stay overnight in the desert. We did it as a day trip.
