An ideal itinerary which takes you into the heart of the interior with visits to Nizwa and the Hajar Mountains, known as Oman's Grand Canyon. You then visit the Wahiba Sands Desert before coming back along the Northern coastline and visiting the town of Sur and the stunning Wadi Shab.
Day One:
You head out of Muscat to Barka before entering Wadi Al Abyad, which is a truly unique wadi with numerous streams and gorges to drive through and with plenty of places to stop and admire the scenery. You will also enjoy a picnic lunch here before heading to the town of Nakhal and Rustaq and through to Wadi Bani Awf and up the mountain to Jebal Shams. You continue on the top of the mountains and explore Al Hamra and Bilad Sait as well as Wadi Ghul. You’ll spend the night on top of the mountain.
Day Two:
You'll drive into Oman's interior in one of our 4x4 land cruisers to Nizwa, the country's capital in the 6th and 7th centuries. Its 17th century castle is the focal point of this captivating old town. With its lush green surroundings, it is admired by all who have visited. You can take a stroll along the castle walls and wander through the local souk where you can barter for your wares.
Day Three:
You will depart after breakfast and head to the Wahiba Sands via Ibra and Sinaw. You will enter the desert at mid afternoon and head to your desert camp. On arrival at the camp, you are greeted with Oman qahwa (coffee). Then you can enjoy camel riding into the sand dunes, dune-bashing in a 4x4, quad biking, or just sit back and relax in the sand and wait for the jewel of Arabia (the sunset over the dunes).
