Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

I went to Oman and we contacted Empty Quarter Tours via email on the recommendation of a good friend: Yousuf8601@yahoo.com. We had a great tour to the desert, swam in wadis and sinkholes and camped overnight seeing one of the most beautiful night skies I have ever seen. The jeep driving was exciting with extremely experienced drivers and Yousuf couldn't have put together a better programme, he listened to what everyone wanted and totally delivered, also he was very reasonable. I would definitely go again. We felt safe throughout, great food and amazing scenery.

One of the main reasons for coming to Oman and Saudi Arabia was to visit the desert, especially the Rub’ al Khali. So we were 4 people (I, my husband and 2 friends). I found the “Arabian Sand Tour Services” in the internet. In total we changed I think 20 Emails but they were always prompt and offered all the information we asked for.
At the beginning we wanted 3 days (and 2 nights) of wild camping (tents) but a few days before our journey we changed it to 1 night in order to be able to see other places around Salalah. They were very flexible and offered us 1 night in the desert and other beautiful places to see in the 3rd day which I fully recommend.
In the first day on our way to the dunes we went to the Frankincense plantation and the Al Hashmann village. On our way back we went to Ubar and the rocky desert. On the 3rd day we went in the Qara mountains, the city of Mirbat and the amazing Wadi Darbat. On our way we visited some Baobab trees, ate in local restaurants and met local people.
My wife and I have traveled the whole world but we have never met a guide like Mohammed. The whole time we spent with him he explained us everything not only from an objective point of view (which one can find in the books) but also from his point of view and how it is pereceived by the locals. We talked about arabian culture, religion, how the tribe laws work and he told us stories from his vast experience in the desert (more than 10-15 years). And above all he was a funny person and we made jokes. At the end we felt like he is more like a bigger brother than a guide.
One more thing. We had to change also our accomodation and they promptly offered us 2 rooms with sea view in their villas on the beach.
All in all we had a great experience with them because we didn’t feel like guests, but more like new members of their community who are willing to discover their past, culture and way of life. In our opinion this is the essence of a trip like this, to discover things that could never be discovered in a book or a vlog. We will definitely return for a longer stay in Rub’ al Khali.

Die extrem hohen Sanddünen, die einzigartige Atmosphäre, der Blick… wer nach Salalah kommt sollte auf jeden Fall eine Tour in die Wüste unternehmen. Es ist unglaublich schön und einzigartig. Ich würde mindestens eine Übernachttour buchen, 2-3 Nächte sind aber bestimmt noch schöner, weil man dann tiefer in die Wüste gelangt. Ich hatte leider nur Zeit für eine Nacht aber auch das war schon ganz toll. Es ist nicht sehr einfach vor Ort zu buchen, so wie man es eigentlich aus anderen Ländern gewohnt ist. Ich hatte daher an der Rezeption meines Hotels gefragt, ob man mir einen Guide besorgen könne. So kam ich dann zu Ali von der Salalah Safari Tourism Organisation +968 9974 4666/
Ali hat mir wirklich einen traumhaften Trip in die Wüste ermöglicht. Vielen Dank auch noch mal.

This review is about Empty Quarter, what a majestic place to visit and see away from all the distractions and city noise. It’s a place where the heart and mind get connected and start to think and feel of all the positive energy inside you. you defiantly need a super good car, I cant recommend less, get your food and water supplies depending on your agenda, don’t forget your car emergency tools, extra petrol tank preferred metal and graded and first aid kit. I do not recommend this place for kids or families and if they do, then not more than a day. It’s a place where you can see where it all begun, snakes, scorpions, lizards, amazing night animals and birds, just make sure you have the right camera to capture it right. if you are couples, this place will bond you more and make you work as a team. meditation is your best when you don’t hear anything except the wind. No money can buy this, that is why its free. Make sure you carry your ID’s, passports just in case. Please clean your mess as you leave cause no one going to clean it there.

Il Dhofar non è una meta semplice se non piacciono i soliti grandi resort e se non si vuole spendere una fortuna.
Fidandoci dell'intuito e di alcune testimonianze online ci siamo affidati a Salim (WhatsApp +96896377772; e-mail:musalimsalim80@gmail.com).
Salim ama il suo territorio e il suo lavoro, è una guida esperta e attenta alle tradizioni locali, ma allo stesso tempo un interlocutore rapido e dinamico, con un ottimo inglese (e un debole per gli italiani).
Il primo giorno, partendo introno a ora di pranzo, abbiamo visto la via dell'incenso, la città "fantasma" di Ubar (qui la sosta è breve) e, soprattutto, l'Empty Quarter, nel quale ci siamo addentrati fino all'ottimo Al hshman camp, in cui abbiamo trascorso una notte da sogno (eravamo da soli!) dopo aver visto il sole tramontare dalla cima di una duna.
Si tratta di un camp sobrio e in linea con lo spirito del deserto, ma fornito di generatore per corrente (attivato in alcune fasce orarie), tende confortevoli e bagni con acqua corrente: il mix perfetto. Soprattutto, non si tratta dei campi tendati dove portano le agenzie meno serie, situati al principio del deserto, alla terza duna utile e talvolta raggiungibili anche con 2 ruote motrici.
Il secondo giorno ci siamo invece fatti portare in 4 spiagge bellissime e poco accessibili al turismo di massa, sia perché non perfettamente indicate, sia perché raggiungibili con strade in parte impervie e sterrate: Oasis, aftlaqoot, al mughsail e soprattutto al fazieha, con le sue decine di spiaggette di sabbia bianca incastonate tra monti e dromedari a piede libero.
Il pomeriggio, dopo un salto al Wadi Darbat (dà il meglio con i monsoni), Salim ci ha lasciati in albergo per un pò di riposo, venendoci poi a riprendere verso sera per farci da ambasciatore della Salalah notturna.
Non parliamo, ovviamente, di ristoranti quotati o locali alla moda (per quelli non serve una guida), ma della possibilità di sorseggiare un ottimo tè a casa di alcuni suoi amici, di farsi portare a fare compere in negozietti di fidata qualità (su nostra richiesta), di cenare in ristorantini fuori dai circuiti principali ma di ottimo livello.
Insomma, l'Oman merita una sosta a Salalah.

On the way from Salalah to Muscat, driving through the interior we got a night's sleep at the Empty Quarter border. The Empty Quarter is nothing more than a huge, sandy desert covering part of Oman and a much larger part of Saudi Arabia. After a fascinating accommodation, we went deep into the desert where we drove through magnificent dunes. Our cars with 4-wheel drive buried and it was difficult to get out of the sand, but ... we managed. That was great!

Zdecydowanie warto odbyć ok. 2 godzinną podróż z Salali by zobaczyć prawdziwą pustynię. Polecam wybrać się tam w formie safari jeepami, a właściwie Land Cruiserami. To co potrafią z nimi zrobić na wydmach miejscowi kierowcy zapiera dech w piersi. Skoki, szalone wjazdu na sam szczyt wydm i jeszcze bardziej zaskakujące zjazdy. Piasek miałki jak talk.
