He was incredibly attentive, ensuring that everyone was comfortable, well looked after, and having a great time throughout the entire journey. Mr. Khalid went above and beyond to make sure our trip was completely stress-free. He arranged for refreshments and found the best spots for us to relax and enjoy the breath taking views of salalah. His dedication to excellent service, combined with his kind demeanor, truly set him apart. We couldn't have asked for a better guide to lead us.If you are looking for someone who is reliable, caring, and entirely focused on giving you the best possible experience, we highly recommend booking your tour with Mr. Khalid!Posted on Lameea A15/07/2026Verified افضل شركة في صلاله مرحبا نحن اول مره نزور صلاله والحمد لله توفقنا مع شركه من افضل الشركات وبالذات معاهم الفاضل احمد المهري شخص قمه في الاحترام والذوق ومميز جدا. ويتحدث لغات انصح وبشده التعامل معه هو خلانا نحب صلالهPosted on Stay3133875165314/07/2026Verified An absolutely incredible, stress-free family vacation to Salalah! We recently returned from a fantastic 5-night, 6-day family trip (5 of us) from Dubai to Salalah during the beautiful Khareef season. From start to finish, Glory Tours exceeded our expectations. Here is why we highly recommend them: Flawless Planning by Muzaffar: Right from our first inquiry, Muzaffar was a dream to work with. He was extremely professional, easy to talk to, and tailored the itinerary perfectly. What we appreciated most was that he kept checking in on us during the trip to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Excellent Accommodations: The 5-star hotel booked for us was perfect. We got beautiful connecting rooms (essential for a family of 5) with a stunning ocean view. Our Amazing Guide, Saeed: Saeed was an absolute gem and made our trip so special. Instead of rushing us early in the morning, he'd pick us up at a comfortable 11:00 AM after we enjoyed a relaxed breakfast. He was incredibly friendly and knew the area inside out, even taking us to some gorgeous, hidden spots away from the usual tourist crowds. If you are planning a trip to Salalah and want a reliable, caring, and highly professional local team, do yourself a favor and book with Glory Tours. We’ll definitely be using them again!Posted on Voyage5576365075614/07/2026Verified Salalah trip Our guide Mr.Khalid was really good ..He has well maintained car and good knowledge of salalah sightseeings ..highly recommend ..Posted on Rosalind H12/07/2026Verified Best Tour Ever East and West Tour We had an amazing time and I highly recommend using them!
