Magnificence of the East 3 Days

نظرة عامة

This three-day trip takes you from Muscat to Nizwa, up to Jebel Shams and out to the Wahiba Sands.

Nizwa, the capital of the interior and the birthplace of Islam in the Sultanate of Oman, is known for its 17th-century Round Tower Fort and its souq. Jabrin, built in the late 17th century, became a seat of Omani learning.

Wadi Nakhr is known as the Grand Canyon of Oman, and Jebel Shams, at 3,010 metres, is the highest peak in Oman. In the Wahiba Sands, a sea of constantly shifting sands, you can enjoy dune bashing, ride camels and visit a Bedouin family.
