Our family of 6 were in Oman from 25-29 feb 2020. After reading so many rave reviews of Khalifa, I decided to email him providing our travel dates and interests. He was super responsive and back with his recommended itinenery in no time!. And despite some reservation on Wahiba Sand at first, we were so happy that we took up the suggested overnight Bedouin camp stay . It was an experience of a life time. Dont ever miss this desert experience should you be in Oman. What made things fell quickly into steps were Khalifa's detailed 'all in' and very competitive quote. A very sincere and considerate man who even offered alternative idea of booking our own accommodations, albeit with his recommendation, should we prefer an even more budgety package. Thank you, Khalifa, for the thought! Being considerate, he also let us have our choice of meals for fresh seafood. Our regret was Khalifa could only showed us around on the last 1.5 days of our tour before we flew off to our next destination. However, he arranged another energetic colleague of his, Mahmoud to bring us around the culturally and historical amazing places on the first 3.5 days. Mahmoud even brought us to see his old village amidst the rolling mountains! All in all, it was an amazing trip in Oman with its friendly people. Khalifa can be reached at : kh_h_113@hotmail.com…

Beautiful pure sand dunes with amazing contours. A few 4x4 land cruisers giving tourists a thrill but generally very peaceful. Try to watch a sunset as it is so spectacular.

We stayed at 1,000 Nights Camp. It was glamping in tents that had electricity and showers (cold water...but still showers). The food at the camp was amazing, and we watched the sun set on top of the dunes. Would be more peaceful without all the 4x4's dune bashing, but it is still about as remote as I have been in a very long time. January is a nice time to go due to lovely daytime temperatures.…

This dessert has beautiful dunes, making sunrises and sunsets awesome. I have been in many desserts, but only a few are as beautiful as this one.

We stayed in the desert overnight wild camping. I'm not usually a fan of camping but it's worth it for the beauty and peaceful nice. The 2 hour drive in a land cruiser to get to the camp also helped. Would definitely recommend
