Very nice experience. beautiful scenary, kind driver, comfortable car. We enjoyed the relaxed time.
This tour doesn't include the lunch, so you can bring your own food if you want. This is a good point for those who have a special preference about food. Or you can also enjoy the buffet lunch at Wadi Bani Khalid for 4 Oman Rial.
