Your guide will pick you up at your hotel in Muscat, and the first stop will be Nizwa, a historic city located an hour and a half away. Learn about the rich history of the former capital of Oman as we wander through its vibrant souk, featuring a variety of goods from dates to intricate jewellery.
Next, we will explore the magnificent Omani fortress, where you can wander through its halls, corridors, and towers that provide stunning views of the city. Discussions will include insights into the Yaruba dynasty and its significant impact in the 17th century.
Our journey continues to Misfah Al Abreen, a charming village characterized by its traditional houses and narrow pathways. After absorbing the enchanting surroundings, we’ll proceed to the highlight of the trip: the Grand Canyon in Jabel Shams mountain, where the breathtaking heights of 3000 meters will leave you in awe.
