We had an amazing family...

We had an amazing family day out on the Oman fjord. We were lucky enough to see dolphins, go fishing, and enjoy some great snorkeling. The boat crew was incredibly kind, and the snorkeling instructor was super friendly and very knowledgeable. All the activities were fantastic — we truly had a wonderful time.

Mussandam Fjord

Kasaab Mussandam Trip We did this trip on December 12th 2025, Organised by Alladin Lamps Tours. We were with 4 adults. Our Driver “Nandhan” was perfectly on time at 6am at the hotel. Nandhan is a very nice young guy, he presented himself and during the trip we also learned a lot about his region of origin: Kerala. We had a comfortable voyage for about 3 hours, with a smooth border passing to Oman. Nandhan organized regular stops for coffee, leg stretching and beautiful views on the road. When driving we saw some active fisher men and Nandhan was able to connect with them so we had the opportunity to see what they catch. Arriving at Kassaab he guided us to the Dhow that would take us for the cruise on the dam. Organized by Al Taif Tours. Nandhan presented us to Captain Isa and Ismail, both were taking care for us during this day trip. First we sailed and enjoyed the “Fjords”. They offered us Ghawa coffee and dades, fruits, soft drinks and a well served lunch. We were able to snorkel. And Ismail got us some sea fresh scallops which he prepared on board. This was a top traditional, simple, cuisine experience. After that we sailed to explore the dolphins. As always this is a unique and joyfull experience. After that our captain Isa saw another boat having technical problems, he suggested to help his colleagues by diving and free that boat’s propeller from a rope. After some fishing experience we sailed back to the port, were Nandhan was waiting for us. We had as save and pleasant drive home. It was the 4th time we did this trip and this was our best experience. In 2 months we are going back with our children, no doubt with whom we will travel again. A big Thank you to Nandhan, Isa and Ismail Patrick Sandra, Ruud & Els

From Border Trouble to a Perfect Trip

I feel like I really need to leave a review here. It’s easy to have a great experience when everything goes according to plan — but the true test of a travel company is how they handle things when plans don’t go smoothly. That’s exactly where Aladdin truly shined for us. We had booked our trip and were beyond excited, only to be stopped at the Oman border and informed that my partner couldn’t travel because his UAE residency visa was still in progress (enter panic mode!). Luckily, it was just the two of us in the car. Our chauffeur Nandu was absolutely amazing — calm, kind, and immediately proactive. He contacted the coordinator, and despite this situation being completely outside their control, the entire team genuinely tried to help. They offered alternative activities and even suggested rescheduling the same tour for a later date. Here’s where the magic continues: my partner received his UAE visa just one day later (!). We contacted Aladdin again, and they immediately arranged another trip for us — this time organizing it as a private tour, since there was no other group scheduled for that Saturday. No hassle, no hesitation. The communication via WhatsApp was outstanding: fast, efficient, polite, and incredibly reassuring. Honestly, I was in awe of the level of customer service — it felt personal, human, and truly caring. We even ended up with the same driver, Nandu — and if you’re lucky enough to get him, you’re in for a treat. He goes above and beyond to make sure you enjoy every moment: playing your favorite music, stopping spontaneously for a sunset because he notices you’re enjoying it — those little thoughtful touches make all the difference. In short: this company is awesome. Professional, flexible, kind, and genuinely invested in giving you a great experience. Highly, highly recommended.

A beautiful day ...

It was a wonderful experience! Our driver, Nandhan, was very friendly and helpful. The excursion started on time. The drive to Oman was really nice. After the border, the coastal road begins. Fascinating scenery! The boat trip was great too! The food on the boat tasted good. Clear recommendation.

Not to be missed

If you want to visit the Omani fjord from Khasab in the best way you have come to the right place. You will find a 5* service whether it is the preparation of the activity with a very effective team. But also with the driver, punctual, giving very good explanations or tips. Or finally, with the crew that will take you on a real tour of the fjord and not just a quick pass. You will have the best spots to see swarms of fish but also to see dolphins swimming next to the boat....if they feel like...or a meal where the quality is there. Finally, the price remains normal compared to the service. You will find less expensive but with less service...

Operator response

Votre satisfaction est notre première priorité, et des commentaires comme le vôtre touchent profondément le cœur de toute notre équipe et nous motivent à continuer d’offrir le meilleur service possible. Merci sincèrement pour votre confiance et vos gentils mots. Vous faites désormais partie de la grande famille Aladdin Nous espérons vous revoir très bientôt pour une nouvelle aventure.

Great landscape and nice...

Great landscape and nice sea activities, unfortunately group was big and became a bit slow so everyone could try kayaking

Operator response

Dear Mr. Xavier Greeting from Aladdin Tours Dubai Thank you very much for taking the time to share your feedback and for choosing our Khasab, Oman trip. Your visit took place on 3 January, which is part of the New Year peak season. During this period, demand is very high, and tours are often fully booked with larger groups. To ensure that all guests have the opportunity to enjoy activities such as kayaking, some waiting time may be required so everyone can participate safely and fairly. We truly appreciate your understanding and patience during this busy holiday period. Your feedback is very important to us, and we always strive to improve our organization and guest experience. We hope to welcome you again in the future, perhaps during a quieter season, for a more relaxed and personalized experience. Kind regards, Aladdin Team

Nice day trip to Oman

It was a very nice day trip to Oman! The duration was long, but it was worth it. I can't say that it was a super incredible experience, but it was quite nice! The captain and the other man on the boat were very good. Also, the people I communicated with online were friendly. Our drive, Nandhan, was really good! He was friendly, hard-working and helpful. He was communicating with us, telling us some historical facts and did also some stops. Generally, I recommend this trip from the UAE to Oman.

Fantastic day. Stunning scenery. Well-organised trip.

A fantastic day out, with stunning scenery. Was contacted at the point of booking for passport details and the day before to inform of pick up time. The drive was prompt and friendly. As for the boat trip, we were lucky enough to have dolphins follow our dhow boat into the area. Food was lovely and opportunities to swim, snorkel and kayak. Thank you.
