Description
Embark on a journey to the border of Oman and Yemen with this exclusive Private Tour of West Salalah. Discover the towns of Dhalkout and Rakhyout while enjoying breathtaking panoramic vistas of the southern valleys.
Private Tour of West Salalah
Your adventure begins at 8 am as we collect you from your accommodation in Salalah, setting off westward towards the town of Dhalkout. The scenic jeep drive will take around two and a half hours.
Upon reaching Dhalkout, located on the periphery of the Dhofar Governorate, we will explore its surroundings aboard the jeep, taking in the lush mountain scenery that envelops this picturesque town. Additionally, we will have the opportunity to visit its stunning beaches, showcasing a distinctive view of the Arabian Sea.
After this initial exploration, you will be granted an hour and a half to enjoy lunch at your leisure. Following our break, we will board the vehicle again and make our way to the village of Deem, which is nestled close to the Omani-Yemeni border. From the village's viewpoint, you can enjoy breathtaking sights of the Yemeni hills.
Continuing with our private tour of West Salalah, we will venture into a valley rich with frankincense trees, providing a chance to delve into the historical significance of the region. It’s fascinating to note that Oman once exported vast quantities of frankincense to China and various European nations.
Finally, our tour will take us to the city of Rakhyout, where we will visit its beaches, the ancient fortress, and one of the oldest mosques in the sultanate.
As the day draws to a close, we will return you to your hotel, concluding this memorable private tour.
