I reccomend this rour, especially as your first arrive in Muscat but don't expect to use it as a means to shop at the souk. The tour stops and audio narrative an route are great for information and context of Oman. The fish market would be better as a snack stop at a local cafe or eliminated all together. The souk stop is really not long enough for anything more than some fotos. Tips- be prepared for a long day since the tour time does not include trabsit to pick up all the people at various hotels. Bring water and snacks cause there are none provided. You can rent an abaya at the mosque as needed. The driver does not have them to provide

I rarely take organized tours but given the difficulty/cost of travelling on its own to Oman, I've decided to give it to try. And I really had a great time! The 1stQuest team answered all my requests beofre the trip, by changing a few accommodations and making it fits my budget. On arrival in Oman, we've been welcome by our guide which was simply fantastic, extremely knowledgable and very friendly. It was an amazing experience and of course Oman is truly a wonderful place to discover for who loves nature and culture. [FYI: my trip was done in Jan. 20, before covid, not march but the date was too old to add it to the review]
