点评:I had a feeling this would be the highlight of our Oman trip but wanted to wait until the end to make sure. It was! We did the Desert sunrise and Wadi Bani Khalid tour on 7 April.
When we woke up at 2.30 am we questioned our decision!! But the experience of seeing the start of the day in the desert is indescribable. Our incredible guide Khalid made the experience personal and unique. At every step, he made sure we were comfortable and enjoying it - whilst also giving us the space to discover things for ourselves. From showing us the perfect angle to see the sunrise, to increasing the intensity of the dune bashing as our confidence grew, to spending some time cleaning the dunes from plastic to meeting the local camels (very) up close, it all was done with a generosity of heart and spirit.
We didn’t think it could get better until we got to Bani Khalid! It was the most stunning landscape with deep clear waters, beautiful rock formations and endless mango trees… and “pedicure” fish in the water.
Diving into the water felt incredible. And when my daughter was nervous, the wonderful Khalid borrowed shorts from the local cafe owner and jumped in to reassure her!
He pumped her up so much that she ended up jumping from one of the highest points! This will be a core memory for her and Khalid was at the centre of it.
This was a beautiful experience and Khalid made it a lifetime memory. He was not really a “guide” but a genuine host who wanted us to fall in love with Oman. And we did. Thank you!
翻译:我原本预感这会是我们阿曼之旅的亮点,但想等到最后再确认。结果确实如此!4月7日,我们参加了沙漠日出和巴尼·哈立德河谷之旅。
凌晨2:30醒来时,我们甚至开始质疑自己的决定!!但在沙漠中见证一天的开始,那种感觉难以言表。我们出色的导游哈立德让这次体验变得个性化且独特。每一步,他都确保我们舒适享受,同时也给我们足够的空间去探索。从带我们找到观看日出的最佳角度,到随着我们信心的增强而增加沙丘冲击的强度,再到花时间清理沙丘上的塑料,以及与当地骆驼(非常)近距离接触,这一切都展现了我们慷慨的心灵和精神。
我们原本以为不会有更好的体验,直到我们到达巴尼·哈立德!那里的景色美得令人窒息,清澈的海水、美丽的岩层、无尽的芒果树……还有水中的“足疗鱼”。
跳入水中的感觉棒极了。我女儿紧张的时候,很棒的Khalid从当地咖啡馆老板那里借了条短裤,跳了进去安慰她!
他给她打了很大的气,最后她从最高点跳了下去!这将成为她一生难忘的回忆,而Khalid就是其中的核心人物。
这是一次美好的经历,Khalid让它成为了终生难忘的回忆。他不是真正的“导游”,而是一位真诚的主人,他希望我们爱上阿曼。我们真的爱上了。谢谢你们!
