Trip to Oman, Salalah, Muscat

Meeting James was like visiting a friend in Oman. We never felt that we were meeting a travel agent or a tour organiser! It always felt like meeting one of your old friends. The cars for travelling was super comfortable and the guides were super knowledgeable. We visited Salalah as well. We would like to go back to Oman again, as the experience was superb.
