Even though these are in the same peninsular it is two different experiences.
Our musandam tour packages are created to suit different budgets, travel styles, and group sizes while ensuring comfort and value. With experienced guides, inclusive activities, and end-to-end support, we focus on delivering a stress-free and memorable travel experience.
For first-time visitors to UAE or Oman who would like to explore other destinations, it can be an intimidating experience without a guide to show you around. Arabiers gives you exceptional tour guides with knowledge of multiple languages including Arabic and English so you can have a memorable adventure. Furthermore, as the guides are fluent in many languages it will give you the chance to interact with the locals and learn more about your destination.
Additionally, each tour comes with many inclusion from meals to numerous activities to tick off your bucket list. Arabiers also help with visa and other documentation processing for the tour so you only need to provide the documents.
From Khasab to Dibba, there are plenty of hotels to suit your budget. Starting at AED 627 per night, visitors can stay at the Dibba Sea View Hotel for a comfortable and budget-friendly stay. Those who want to indulge in a 5-star escapade can Six Senses Zighy Bay Beach Resort. This beachfront pool villa starts at AED 5186 per night.
The accommodation in Dibba is limited compared to Khasab where you get better options and more budget hotels. Most hotels in Khasab are located near the airport and far cheaper with 1 to 3 star hotels costing AED 180 to AED 270. On the other end, 4-star hotels such as the Atana Musandam Resort are priced at AED 474 for a night. These luxurious hotels are usually beachfront estates with opulent rooms and facilities such as pools and a spa.
These documents are needed to have a smooth tribe to Musandam from the UAE.
If you are a tourist you can prepare these documents to get ready.
Good news for our tiny travelers! Children below 3 years old get to join the Musandam Dibba Tour for free. However, they still need the same documents as the adults for permit processing.
Children below 3 years old can also travel to Musandam freely. It is free of charge for them. The same documents are needed to process the tour.
From savory rice dishes to delicious desserts there are plenty of Omani delicacies to try in Musandam. You can start the day with a Karak Omani Tea which is a sweet milk tea with spices or kuboos bread with a hummus dip.
One of the must-try meals is the famous kebobs which are small pieces of marinated and broiled meat with vegetables on a skewer and Mishkak which is a popular street snack. Visitors with a sweet tooth can try traditional treats such as the Omani halwa, which has a unique taste and is made with ingredients such as cardamom, saffron, and rosewater.
If you want a taste of the best restaurants in Musandam, head straight to Khasab. Currently, one of the most famous restaurants is the Aroos Musandam in Khasab for authentic seafood and mixed grill dishes. Some of the other popular eateries are the Fanr Musandam Turkish restaurant and Khasab castle. A notable attribute of restaurants in Musandam is the variety of vegetarian and non-veg options, a great convenience for individuals with dietary needs/preferences.
Your tour to Musandam will entirely be an outdoor experience. Since there are a lot of water bodies it is ideal to not visit during the summer season. The water will be hot and not suitable for diving. So the best time to visit Musandam is from the months of October to March. During January - February, Musandam gets frequent showers. This is the coolest atmosphere to visit Oman. If you prefer less crowds, March is the best time to visit. Hotels are also quite cheap at this time of the year also.
We sent a message to this tour company at the last moment to check if there is a half-day private dhow cruise tour available in the Oman Fjords. Their representative was fast with his response & he accommodated us immediately! When we came at the cruise terminal, he was there to even receive us.
Everything during the tour was pretty smooth! I loved the views, and the tour guide who was with us throughout the exploration was very supportive. The views of the tall mountains were spectacular. Our highlight of this trip was honestly the dolphin spottings.
Aside from the wonderful tour experience that I had, I loved how friendly and caring their staff was towards us. Their tour guide was also quite knowledgeable about this area. I would highly recommend this company for booking your Musandam khasab and Musandam Dibba tours.
