Our tour is not just a trip — it’s a deep, immersive journey into the real Dhofar, guided by locals who know every hidden valley, every sunset spot, and every story that makes Dhofar so unique. Our Omani guides share their culture, traditions, and hidden gems that most visitors never see. From secret cliff viewpoints to remote desert trails, you’ll explore Dhofar like an insider. We combine lush nature (Wadi Darbat & Baobab Trees), dramatic coastal cliffs (Taqa), authentic food experiences, and an unforgettable sunset in the desert — all in one perfect day. We avoid the crowds, support local communities, and customize each experience based on your pace and interests. Whether you're a solo traveler, couple, or family — we tailor it for you. This is more than sightseeing. It’s Dhofar/Salalah with heart, history, and adventure.

ذهبنا الي رحلة سفاري الي صحراء الربع الخالي مع مجموعة من السياح
في البداية زرنا محمية أشجار اللبان في وادي دوكة وكان المرشد بوسالم متميز في شرحة لكل التفاصيل وملما بالعادات والتقاليد عن البلد
توقفنا استراحة في ولاية ثمريت لشرب القهوة العربية وبعد ذلك إلي اوبار شصر لزيارة الموقع وهو تابعة لليونسكو ومن ثم الي الكثبان الرملية وتجربة الاستمتاع بالرمال الناعمة الصفراء ومشاهدة غروب الشمس
المرشد بوسالم متميز في قيادة السيارة ذات الدفع الرباعي
طريق العودة بعد غروب الشمس والذهاب الي ولاية ثمريت لتناول العشاء في المطعم
كانت تجربة جميلة وانصح الجميع بالذهاب مع صلالة الجميلة السياحية

Must-see tour with stops to see the frankincense trees, enjoy Omani coffee and visit the alleged remains of the lost city of Ubar. The tour culminates with the visit of the scenic dunes at the Empty Quarter desert. Breathtaking views and one of the most beautiful sunsets ever experienced.
Again a big thank to Abu Salim - his off-road driving skills are out of this world!
