IT WAS PERFECT FROM BEGINNING TO END

Dear Fatima & Badar, The tours you suggested were great. We love the Daymaniyat Islands sea trip & the swim with the turtles, but we give full credit to Rustaq & the Wadi Tours. Crowne Plaza was nice as you suggested & fit well with our Muscat tours. It was perfect from beginning to end. Khalid met us at our hotel on time and delivered us back. His knowledge of culture and nature was very impressive and his picnic lunch location was 5Star. I highly recommend Khalid and your company for superb service and attention to detail. We wish we had been able to attend an opera performance, but we realize we booked late and there was high demand for opera tickets, but overall the Muscat tour was excellent. Thank you so much for a memorable tours Eva & Family

BRILLIANT TOURS

Fatima, Your suggestion for the tours was excellent. My family and I enjoyed every part of them. We really impressed with Moosa's kindness and his knowledge of nature & geology. He did add an amazing aspect to the tours which we did not expect, so a big thanks to him. Looking forward to seeing the images ☺️ Greetings from Irland Michelle & Fmiliy 🤍

I was extremely impressed with their efficiency and service

“I traveled with Panorama Travels, who managed to organize a trip less than 12 hours before we left and even had an adapted itinerary for me. I was extremely impressed with their efficiency and service. Many thanks to Badar and Fatima”
