Amazing! I mean I knew that seeing dolphins wasn't a guarantee but we were so lucky! We saw about 50 dolphins and a whale. And when snorkeling I swam with a sea turtle. The people in charge were also very professional, took their time and explained everything.
They went first to a wrong hotel to pick me up but then they fixed it within 5 minutes. Really well organised

Communication and pick up were clear and punctual. Dolphins were not very playful on that particular day so they only got to the surface to take a breather, not much of a show. Many boats were following them around so that wasn't very helpful either. Snorkeling spot wasn't the best I have ever seen, not much variety in fish, but lots of Coral. Beautiful scenic route back to the port, but overall not very exciting to be honest. Maybe the group you share the boat with can also determine wether the trip is enjoyable or not, but I didn't feel like there was much animation although the guide was friendly and tried to make the best out of it.

Absolutely brilliant time - saw hundreds of dolphins - followed by snorkelling (saw 5 turtles). Couldn’t be better. The dolphin watching was sensitive - no other boats around. Snorkelling in the bay with other boats but all hundred metres apart. Fish and titles seem unperturbed. We were told not to stand on coral or touch anything - snorkels provided. All good.

People went to see dolphins and got a show. The boat had water, soda, and things to eat. About snorkeling, the spot that I was taken wasn't necessarily the best. Yes, there are some schools of fish but that's it.

TONS of dolphins—very common to see them (more rare in winter, I was told). It was fantastic to see them right off the side of the boat. Tons of other boats there, but we were more secluded for the snorkeling. Lots of fish and a little over an hour to snorkel. Water, sodas, and a few snacks provided. Covered boat for some shade. Drove through some cool rock tunnels in the return trip!

It was a nice private tour, wasn’t easy to watch the dolphins as the sea wasn’t so peaceful and that day. We enjoyed the Khiran area the most. Our captain was an expert but I noticed that they don’t care about safety measures at all. We cruised through the gulf area with no life jackets !!
We watched lovely Muscat’s coast line before we head back safely to hotel.
They provide hotel pick-up, drop-offs. Captain Bader is so knowledgeable, funny, friendly, and loves his job.
This trip was a gift from an Omani friend, so many thanks to “Abu Khalifa”

It was great holiday and well organized.
Your timing was great and adherent to schedule.
The great part are the tour guide:
Mr. Khalfan was amazing and I am speechless regarding his care.
Also the boat captain in fishing tour with his assistance (sorry I forgot their names)
They made my kids always happy and smile

Die Delfin Beobachtung hat wunderbar geklappt, es waren wirklich viele Tiere zu sehen. Dann ging es zum Schnorcheln, man konnte mehrere Fischarten und Wasserschildkröten sehen. Auf der Rückfahrt wurde an der Küste entlang noch einiges gezeigt und erklärt. Dauert 3 Stunden, alles genau so wie angekündigt. Wirklich lohnend! Schwimmflossen und Taucherbrillen werden gestellt. Wegen des Fahrtwindes am Schnellboot ist eine warme Jacke zu empfehlen. Es hätte noch eine längere Tour gegeben, für uns waren die drei Stunden aber sehr angenehm und ausreichend. Besser kann es nicht sein.

Wir haben Delfine gesehen, allerdings taten die uns leid, "gejagd" von all den Speedbooten. Lärm und Abgase müssen schlimm für die Delphine sein. Gute Organisation, sehr nette und erfahrene Crew, die sich viel Mühe gibt. Auch der Schnorcheltripp war lohnenswert, wir konnten ausgiebig Schildkröten beobachten.
