Day 0 - Wednesday, September 29th Muscat MAGICAL MUSCAT Scenically wedged between mountains and ocean, with its old forts, interesting museums, the Opera House and flower-filled parks, the city of Muscat distinguish itself from the neighboring capitals. Even the buildings and the architecture reflect its conservative nature but at the same time the city offers a warm sense of Omani hospitality and an opportunity to connect with the country’s rich heritage.
Day 1 - Thursday, September 30th Wadi Bani Khalid ON THE ROAD TO DISCOVER WADI BANI KHALID Wadi Bani Khalid is a geographical wonderland of pools, caves and mountains. Unlike other wadis, it is distinguished by a constant flow of water all year round. There you can enjoy the spectacular view of the valley with its spreading trees and abundant water that tumbles down as waterfalls in some areas to form natural pools of water. The road then cuts through the valley to reach Muqal town, well known for its spectacular cave.
Day 2 - Friday, October 1st Fins Beach AND THE OMAN COASTLINE Oman has got around 3,000 kilometres of coastline, most of which are pristine, stunning and secluded beaches that face the Indian Ocean with soaring sand dunes or rugged rocks, flourishing coral reefs and unique wildlife. The long east coast between Muscat and Salalah is one of the most beautiful areas of the country. There, you will only find small fishing villages and experience the traditional side of Oman. You won’t want to miss this beautiful and diverse stretch of land. Only 150km south from Muscat, Fins is a coastal village mainly known for its hidden beaches and coves framed by white sands, turquoise waters and the Al Hajar Mountains in the background.
Day 2 - Friday, October 1st Wahiba ONE THOUSAND AND ONE NIGHTS Wahiba Sands is a desert made of regular dunes that seem to stretch out endlessly in the heart of eastern Oman. Pale gold at noon, its color Sand Desert then shifts between rich yellow and coppery orange when the sun is at lower angles. Just a three-hours drive from Muscat, an overnight stay here offers an easy way to experience the comfort of luxe camps yet in a traditional Bedouin style. You will never forget the incredible sunsets, the sun rising from the endless dunes and the starry sky that you will be able to watch from here. Let yourself experience this magical place where technology and great comfort are abandoned to give space to nature and adventure.
Day 3 - Saturday, October 2nd Nizwa THE QUINTESSENTIAL OF THE MIDDLE EAST The historic town of Nizwa, with its giant fort and high- walled souq, lies on a plain surrounded by a thick palm oasis and some of Oman’s highest mountains. Capital of Oman in the 6th and 7th century, this charming town has a cultural heritage that is hard to miss. Nizwa, or the “Pearl of Islam” as it is sometimes called, is still a conservative city and is a natural access point for mountain hikes and road tours to Jebel Akhdar.
Day 3 - Saturday, October 2nd Jebel Akhdar TIME FOR A DIFFERENT LANDSCAPE With its 3,075 meters of height above sea level, Jebel Akhdar, meaning the Green Mountain, is one of Oman’s most spectacular areas and part of Al Hajar Mountains. It is the highest point in Oman. Some annual rain keeps this place moist enough to support agricolture and the growth of Damask roses. The area is indeed well-known for its rose water extraction done by the farmers that have lived in these terraced villages for hundreds of years.
Day 4 - Sunday, October 3rd Muscat EXPLORING MUSCAT. A MIX OF INTRINGUING HISTORY AND STUNNING SCENERY From Jebel Akhdar, the journey will move back to the Capital where you will finally enjoy the beauties of the old Muscat, the Royal Opera House, which is one of the Sultanate’s prized jewels and the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque. In alternative, you can opt to end your tour with a day trip to the Daymaniyat Islands and enjoy the most surprising snorkeling paradise with its brightly colored fish, sea turtles, and clear beautiful water that make it an incredible natural preserve.
