We took a full day dhow cruise through the Musandam Fjords as part of a group followed by an overnight on the luxury Dhow Rubba. The owner takes such pride in his business as well as his dhow. The staff were equally attentive striking the perfect balance between giving us lots of space and privacy as well as being on hand. The food on board was exceptional, without doubt the best food that we have had on such excursions. Due to Covid, we were the only family on Rubba which made it even more special, but definitely worth the upgrade. We'd definitely recommend and will hopefully return with visitors shortly.
