5.Guided Overnight Desert Camp Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 28 reviews · 2 - 3 days · from $589

From Muscat, hike Wadi Shab turquoise pools, then sleep in Wahiba Sands luxury tents and swim Wadi Bani Khalid next day.

“Nonostante sia stato un itinerario serrato e un po’ faticoso, ne è valsa indubbiamente la pena. La notte nel deserto, vedere l’ultimo tramonto del 2025 e la prima alba del 2026 sulle dune del deserto non ha prezzo. Un po’ di scontento c’è stato nel gruppo per la sistemazione di Nizwa che non ha mantenuto le aspettative. Sì è trattato sicuramente di un inconveniente ma l’hotel era veramente di scarsissimo livello e privo di ogni servizio. La nostra guida Alì invece veramente top. Itinerario super consigliato.”
