We did the 4 day tour with Desert Discovery, which gives you a day in Muscat, followed by a drive down the coast, 2 overnights in desert camps, and a drive through the country back to Muscat. It was a very varied trip, including wadis, turtles, forts, camels.....etc! Our guide was very well informed, and interesting. Food was excellent throughout,... More

Amazing gold desert with camel and horse in the lovely camp. More

Total ripoff. Designed only to gouge tourists out of their money. "Camel riding" = sit on camel for five minutes. More

The camp is great, a little over priced, but you can forgive that because of the welcome you get. However, its now in danger of not being in the middle of the Wahiba Sands as it has a road very close by.....its lost a bit of its old charm More

We stayed here for one night at the end of December during a week independent sightseeing in Oman. This camp is located only a few kilometers from the highway, but you feel really far away. It did seem they were building a new road right in front of the camp though. We stayed in a palmleave hut with our own... More

I recently stayed at both desert dicovery camps (in Ras al Jinz and in Wahiba sands). Both camps were so unbelievely dirty. It reminded it me the worst dorms of India at time I was backpacking 20 years ago. It's quite astonishing that the Omani Ministry of Tourism would allow to use such beautiful settings to put up dirty tents... More
