Dhow cruise from Khasab for dolphin spotting, two snorkel stops in clear Khor Ash Sham, and a buffet lunch with drinks.
“The trip was OK overall. We have used other Khasab dhow cruise providers previously and this one felt a bit disappointing in comparison. - Despite advance communication, nobody met us at the harbor. Chaotic experience running around in the heat with young children, to locate our boat. - We left at 10:45 instead of 10:00…”

Gli organizzatori sono preziosi e super disponibili. Il nostro volo Muscat-Khasab era in ritardo, ma siamo rimasti in contatto via whatsapp e ci hanno aspettato permettendoci di fare…”
