Muscat
Tag 1-2
Picture yourself landing in Muscat, the vibrant capital of Oman, where your adventure begins. As you step off the plane, the warm breeze greets you, and soon you find yourself behind the wheel of your 4x4, ready to dive deep into Oman’s landscapes and culture. The first day in Muscat is a gentle introduction to the country’s rich heritage. You’ll be mesmerized by the beauty of the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, a towering symbol of modern Omani architecture with its gleaming marble courtyards and grand chandelier. The old town of Mutrah beckons next, with its narrow alleys filled with the scent of frankincense and spices at the bustling souq. As evening falls, you find yourself walking along the Corniche, watching the sun dip below the horizon, casting its golden light over the fishing boats anchored in the harbor. This is only the beginning.

Sur
Tag 2-3
The next morning, the real adventure starts as you head south, leaving the city behind for the rugged coast. The road hugs the shoreline as you make your way to Wadi Shab, one of Oman’s hidden treasures. After a short boat ride, you hike through the canyon, surrounded by towering cliffs, until you reach the crystal-clear pools of water hidden deep within. You plunge into the refreshing pools, swimming toward a hidden cave with a waterfall inside, a secret world few get to see. As you continue toward Sur, you stop at the Bimmah Sinkhole, a stunning natural formation where you can take a quick dip in its turquoise waters. By sunset, you arrive in Sur, a sleepy coastal town where the history of Oman’s maritime past comes alive. Watching the traditional dhow boats being crafted by hand, you can almost hear the whispers of the sailors who once navigated these seas.

Wahiba Sands
Tag 3-4
Brings you face to face with one of nature’s most awe-inspiring spectacles: the nesting sea turtles at Ras Al Jinz. Before dawn, you stand in the soft glow of the morning light, watching as these ancient creatures lay their eggs on the beach, a truly humbling experience. Afterward, the landscape transforms dramatically as you drive inland to the vast, rolling dunes of Wahiba Sands. The golden expanse of desert stretches as far as the eye can see, and the thrill of driving through the dunes in your 4x4 makes your heart race. You spend the evening at a traditional desert camp, the silence of the desert only broken by the crackling campfire as you sip on sweet Omani tea, looking up at a sky blanketed with

Jebel Akhdar
Tag 4-5
The journey takes you to Wadi Bani Khalid, a green oasis in the middle of the desert. After a few days of dust and sand, the sight of palm trees and clear water is a welcome change. You swim in the cool pools, wander through the palm groves, and explore the small caves hidden within the wadi. But the road beckons once again, and soon you find yourself climbing the steep, winding roads up to Jebel Akhdar, Oman’s famed “Green Mountain.” As the air cools and the scenery shifts to terraced farms and blooming rose gardens, you realize that Oman’s diversity is nothing short of breathtaking. You spend the night in the mountains, the cool breeze a welcome contrast to the desert heat.
5
Nizwa
Tag 5-6
The adventure doesn’t stop there. Day five brings you to the historic city of Nizwa, where you explore the towering fort that once protected the city from invaders. Climbing to the top of the fort’s tower, you’re rewarded with panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and date palm groves. In the bustling Nizwa Souq, the scent of spices fills the air as you wander through stalls selling silver jewelry, pottery, and Omani sweets. The day ends with a journey toward Jebel Shams, Oman’s highest peak, where you stand on the edge of the Grand Canyon of Oman. The sheer cliffs and rugged beauty of the canyon are a sight to behold, and as the sun sets over the horizon, the silence and grandeur of the place leave you in awe.

Misfat Al Abriyeen
Tag 6-7
Takes you further into Oman’s rural heart. In the village of Al Hamra, you walk among the mudbrick houses that have stood for centuries, getting a glimpse of traditional life. At Bait Al Safah Museum, you roll up your sleeves and get hands-on with Omani traditions, learning how to make bread and grind flour as generations before have done. The day ends in the picturesque village of Misfat Al Abriyeen, a hidden gem nestled in the mountains, where stone houses cling to the hillsides and the falaj irrigation system keeps the terraced gardens lush and green. The quiet of the village, combined with its stunning views, makes this one of the most tranquil stops on the journey.

is no less remarkable. You delve deep underground at Al Hoota Cave, exploring its hidden chambers and subterranean lakes.
