   Take the graded track to Wadi Shab, one of Oman's most spectacular wadis, with fresh water flowing most of the year beside banana plantations and rocky paths. You can swim from pool to pool through its warm water.

   Continue to Sur and Ras Al Hadd, where your night is arranged.

   After dinner, you are driven to the Ras Al Jinz Turtle Sanctuary, a protected green turtle nesting reserve. You can see Oman's great sea turtles nest and lay eggs on the beach, and you may see baby turtles hatching from some nests.

2. 2日目

   Wadi Bani Khaled and the Wahiba Sands

   After breakfast, continue to Wadi Bani Khaled, one of the biggest and most beautiful wadis in Oman, and enjoy a refreshing swim in its cool water.

   A drive through the dunes is a must: enjoy 4x4 dune bashing and ride camels.

   Later, visit a local Bedouin family at home for a close-up view of their way of life, and share coffee and dates with them.

   Enjoy the campfire and dinner, and spend the night in the desert. Lunch is optional.

3. 3日目

   Nizwa and Jabrin

   After breakfast, drive to Nizwa, the capital of the interior and the birthplace of Islam in the Sultanate of Oman.

   Nizwa is known for its Round Tower Fort, built in the 17th century, and its souq, famous for its Friday cattle auction, intricately hand-carved khanjars (daggers) and ornamental silver jewellery.

   Jabrin, the finest of Oman's castles, was built in the late 17th century and became a seat of Omani learning. It shows the highest achievement in Omani ceiling painting and beautifully executed woodcarvings.

   Overnight in Nizwa. Lunch is optional.

4. 4日目

   Misfat Al Abrien and Jebel Shams

   In the morning, after breakfast, drive up a winding road into the hills to the faraway, picturesque mountain village of Misfat Al Abrien, where time has stood still.

   Drive on up the towering mountains of Jebel Shams, the highest mountain in Oman, and the deep ravines of Wadi Ghul, through untamed, rugged country, a pristine world broken here and there by tiny settlements.

   Dinner and overnight at Jebel Shams. Lunch is optional.

5. 5日目

   Billad Sayt, Wadi Bani Awf, Nakhl and back to Muscat

   After breakfast, leave Jebel Shams and drive to Billad Sayt, one of the most charming and picturesque mountain villages, where time seems to have stood still for ages. The village on top of the cliff is a spectacular sight from the terraced farms below, which provide for the people who live there.

   Continue along the loop to Wadi Bani Awf. The climb through the wadi takes you up the jebel (mountain), and at one point you see the gorge below, which really does look like a snake. If you wish, you can trek into it, and there are several small pools here for bathing.

   Travel along the Batinah to Nakhl, a date palm grove, to see the natural hot spring and the 350-year-old Nakhl Fort.

   Return to Muscat in the late afternoon. Lunch is optional.
