Very punctual when it comes to pick up, suitable for almost everyone depending on what point you want to reach in Wadi Shab, first pools easy, the path to the cave medium to difficult, enough drinkable water is mandatory for Wadi Shab, extra tip water shoes, life jacket if you are not a swimmer, sunscreen and something to protect your head from the sun. The Bimah Sinkhole is good too, way too easy in comparison with all the walking you have to do for Wadi Shab and very important to remember this is not a guided tour.

I loved the excursion! Naseeb, our guide, was excellent. I think there could be better explanation of the hike in the materials. We literally had to traverse streams in knee deep water. Water sandals would have been better footwear than sport shoes. I ended up walking barefoot over stones and rocks. You must be a competent swimmer to make it to the waterfall in the final cave - totally was worth it!!!

The trip was as described, I was surprised no water was provided on the journey. Be aware that you are dropped off at start of Wadi and have to get there under own steam. Strongly suggest, a) decent trainers or walking boots to walk up Wadi, plus b) take light flip flops as getting into water is over pebbles. There is nowhere to change into swim wear. It would have been useful if Gray Line had mentioned this

It was breadth-taking ! Paradise for people who want to take photos. But mind it the 3 hour wadi al shab hike is not for everyone. You have to decently fit and adventurous. Also note, bring good hiking shoes as you need to hike on stones and some of them are slippery (with my running shoes I fell on one of them). There is a swimming part. If you do not know swimming then get life jackets. Ask the tour guide while booking if they can provide. As it involves swimming bring extra clothes and towels. Also in the swimming part some of the part is walking on shallow water where the ground is full of stones, so bring another pair of shoes which get dry well. Bring small water bottle and some snacks in case you come empty stomach (you should not ideally). Also you can get a dedicated guide by paying extra on spot who goes with you. For a bigger group this might be value for money. Food was decent, not terrible not great.The bimmah sink hole and the white sand beach was beautiful as well but wadi al shab was the best part !
