3 Days: Historical Nizwa, Mountains, Villages and Wadi Tour

Itinerary:
Day 1: Welcome to Oman! Your guide will welcome you at Muscat International Airport and transfer you to your hotel in either Muscat or Nizwa depending on your arrival time.

Day 2: We start by exploring the old capital of Oman, Nizwa. This ancient settlement showcases Omani culture and history. Nizwa Fort (which dates back to the Yaruba dynasty in the 1650s) is the most visited monument in Oman. Omani culture is celebrated here with musicians, traditional displays and workshops. Nizwa Souq then provides an opportunity to pick up some locally made handicrafts and souvenirs. On Fridays you can also experience the excitement of the goat market, where locals from the nearby villages come to sell their livestock.
Our next stop is the viewpoint for Jebel Shams (Sun Mountain), Oman’s highest peak (3009m) and Oman’s Grand Canyon. This off-road adventure provides unparalleled views of the Al Hamra region. We then make our way down the mountain to explore the narrow streets, traditional houses, and irrigation systems in the picturesque village of Misfat Al Abriyeen. There is also the opportunity to visit the living museum of Bait Al Safah to gain a further glimpse into life as it was in Oman.
After an action-packed day, we drop off at your hotel to rest and relax (camping is also an option here).

Day 3: After breakfast we travel to the beautiful Wadi Shab. A short boat trip across the river leads to a trail through local plantations and into a stunning canyon where you can swim in the turquoise pools. The more adventurous can swim into a cave where a secret waterfall awaits. Then heading back to Muscat there is the opportunity to visit Bimmah Sinkhole. A stunning natural swimming pool that makes a fantastic photo opportunity. After lunch we return to Muscat where a city and souq tour can be offered if time allows.
After a captivating 3 days we say our goodbyes at Muscat International Airport.
