About This Tour

Embark on an unforgettable journey through Oman’s stunning landscapes and rich cultural heritage.

Begin with a scenic drive through the majestic Hajar Mountains, where dramatic valleys, rugged peaks, and charming traditional villages set the stage for an authentic Omani experience.

Your first stop is Nizwa, a historic city famous for its grand fort and vibrant souq. Wander through bustling marketplaces, including the Date Market, Omani Sweet Market, Traditional Weapons Market, Spice Market, and Handicrafts Market, where you can find exquisite pottery, silver jewelry, artisanal crafts, and delicious local treats. Visit on a Friday, and you’ll experience the fascinating Livestock Auction Market, where locals buy and sell goats, sheep, and cattle – a truly unique glimpse into Omani tradition.

Next, explore the tranquil village of Birkat Al Mauz, an oasis surrounded by lush date palm plantations. Its name, “Birkat Al Mauz” (Banana Pool), reflects a time when the area was abundant with banana trees, giving the village its distinctive identity. Stroll through its narrow streets and admire the traditional mud-brick houses, while the ancient Falaj Al-Khatmeen, a UNESCO World Heritage site, channels water through the village, sustaining agriculture and showcasing Oman’s ingenious heritage.

The adventure culminates at the Green Mountain (Jebel Akhdar), famous for its cool climate, terraced orchards, fragrant rose gardens, and panoramic mountain vistas. Enjoy scenic walks, capture breathtaking photos, and immerse yourself in the peaceful beauty of one of Oman’s most spectacular landscapes.

This extraordinary route perfectly blends culture, history, and nature, offering travelers an immersive and magical Omani experience that will leave unforgettable memories.
