Exceptional Trip!🎉 An exceptional trip! We booked the 5 Day - 4 Nights Khareef Salalah Tour for 5 people directly with Glory Tours and customer service through Ahmad was amazing! We wanted some of the itinerary adjusted and he easily made it happen; 2 members of our group also did not want to join a planned hike, and Ahmad was so gracious as to plan another fun itinerary for that day for them on short notice. When we first arrived, we were warmly welcome at the airport, and for the duration of our stay, our tour guide Amer made us feel welcome, and was so gracious, patient and fun! he told us all about the places we visited’s history or significance. He introduced us to delicious Omani foods and never ran out of Karak Tea for us. We went kayaking in the river, horse riding on the beach, hiking, toured Haffa souk, visited the most otherworldly beaches and more, and it was all very well coordinated. All in all, a trip so perfect and memorable that none of us can wait to return to Salalah. Their motto is 100% accurate.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Unbeatable experience with an exceptional local guide If you are visiting Salalah, look no further than Glory Tours Salalah. Our guide, Musallam AlMahri, was an absolute standout—well-organized, highly professional, and incredibly friendly. He took us to iconic spots like the lush Wadi Darbat, the dramatic cliffs of Mughsail Beach, and the historic Taqah Castle, sharing his deep knowledge of Omani history and local traditions along the way. Musallam completely customized the itinerary to our pace, found the best angles for photos, and gave excellent local recommendations. He went above and beyond to make us feel safe and welcome. Highly recommend this company for an authentic Dhofari experience!Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Excellent trip I came to Salalah for 1day and made a decision to make a tour to east and west of Salalah. My tour guide came early, his name is Khaled. I enjoyed traveling with him. He showed me main points, we stopped where I wished, took photos. When I was in Darbat, he was waiting for me. He is very friendly and hospitable, driving smoothly. If you have less time as me, I recommend you to take a private tour with him. Also he will give the information about the city.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Five stars tour company in Salalah I highly recommend this tour company if you’re planning a trip to Salalah. One of the things I appreciated the most was how punctual and well-organized they were every single day. What made the experience even better was their flexibility. They were very accommodating and willing to adjust the itinerary based on what we wanted to see and experience. Whether we wanted to spend more time at a certain place, change the order of the stops, or simply explore something that caught our interest along the way, they were always happy to make adjustments whenever possible. The guide, Muhammad, was friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about Salalah. He made the trip feel relaxed rather than rushed, while still making sure we could see and enjoy all the important places. His local knowledge really added value to the experience, especially when it came to discovering beautiful spots and getting a better understanding of the area. A special mention goes to Muzaffar, who went above and beyond by taking the time to accompany us on our last day.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Experience One of the most beautiful, sweetest, and happiest trips of my life, thanks to Glory Travel Company, which organized the trip for us, and our guide, Amer Al-Mahri (may God bless him). Excellent organization, flexibility, a suitable car, safe driving, and a very cooperative guide with love and passion for his profession and high professionalism. We will return, God willing, next year, and hopefully with the same person.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Amazing experience with Glory Tours in Salalah We had the best time with Glory Tours, especially Khalid who was our tour guide for the entire trip duration. We couldn’t recommend them enough, they were very accommodating of our requests. One special mention to Khalid, the waterfalls in our itinerary weren’t running when we were there so out of his own kindness he took us to a waterfall that wasn’t even part of our tour. Very accommodating team, he took us to great photo spots too. We’d definitely recommend trusting them with your Salalah trip!Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

I booked a 3-day tour with Glory Tours and I'm so glad I did! Right from the pickup at the airport to the tour of Salalah and back, the service was terrific. Our guide, Mahad, was very friendly, professional, and helpful. He even took us to some adhoc spots for good views and was always ready to snap great family pics. Mahad's also pretty knowledgeable and shared nice trivia about Oman and its culture. The tagline 'come as a guest, leave as a friend' is 100% true with Glory Tours!Posted on Google![]()
