People & Partnerships
After extensive research over the last two years and having established new, strong and influential local partnerships in Oman, we have launched “Discover Oman” to engage our guests in more enriching and authentic experiences that satiate the soul.
Here we are! -a bunch of weird people connected by the passion for travel. Unique faces bring unique experiences.
ROBBY
It’s not often in life that people get to follow their passion and turn it into a career!
Well-travelled, he draws inspiration from the different cultures he has experienced. Having spent 15 years in Oman, with countless weekends with his family and friends exploring new wadis and trekking paths and discovering new villages, he enjoys meeting people and sharing his experiences in his uniquely witty way. Discover Oman is the offspring of his keen desire to share his incredible experiences and help travellers connect with its culture, history and people.
He has been one of the pioneers in introducing responsible tourism practices in the country and also to inspire small though significant community initiatives in this direction.
Feel free to drop him a line at robby@discoveroman.me

QAIS
He is an epitome of kindness and friendliness. A man of affectionate disposition, he is very passionate about his country, and is an expert guide who knows about that “special place” at every destination and can even be your bird-watching guide!

MANICA
He is our management guru. A highly qualified tourism professional, he has been associated with top names in the industry, including a long stint with Emirates Holidays as a Product Manager. Based in Dubai, he oversees and coordinates the marketing & business development as well as the branding of the organization.
ABDULRAHMAN
Born and brought up in the beautiful mountain village of Misfat Al Abriyeen, he knows the Hajjar mountain like the back of his hands. He is equally knowledgeable about Omani culture, traditions and that’s what makes him the ideal companion on our trekking trips
MASOUD
True gentleman with polished manners and armed with profound erudition in respect to culture and history of Oman. A real professional, Masoud is the best choice to take you along on our cultural trips.
SAMUEL
Spent a quarter of a century in the Gulf, between Saudi Arabia, UAE and Oman. He is a hardcore operations guy who is keen to finish the job at hand as quickly as he can. No wonder, you won’t get a chance to complain of delays! Such is Samuel’s down to the last bit planning and execution.
MUSSALLEM
When we think about Rub Al Khali, Mussallem comes to our mind. There are certain trips that we believe only he can do. His team with their expert navigational skills befriend even the most hostile terrains. & we bet he is a reservoir of information on Bedouin life in Oman. Legend? Who else can you think of while heading south?
