Day 1: Muscat - Wadi Bani Khalid - Wahiba Sands expand_more
- We leave from Muscat, arriving shortly in Fanja. This land is known as the gateway of the Al Dakhiliyah region since it's the first city from Muscat. As many people say, it is the most beautiful tourist destination in the Wilayat of Bid Bid in the Al Dakhiliyah region. Fanja is roughly 25 km from Muscat and has always been so rich in cultural heritage, and is equipped with outstanding natural architecture. Five thousand years later, civilization still exists along with modern enhancements and still has more to discover and learn. The great thing about Fanja is it gives you the pleasure of combining the old with the new, representing the city's actual image. You will see many ancient buildings such as towers, castles, and old homes built of mud on the mountains overlooking the wadi.
- Moving forward, we continue driving to Wadi Bani Khalid. 203 km from Muscat, this wadi is the best-known in the Sharqiyah region. There is a constant stream of water that flows throughout the year. Wadi Bani Khalid has various land genes, from low hills to mountains. We will relax here for a short while and explore.
- Later, in Wadi Bani Khalid, we will move on to the Wahiba Sands, where we will rest at our desert camp, experiencing extraordinary desert sunsets and traditional dining.

- Afterwards, we will take a drive to the city of Ibra. It is the second-largest city in the Ash Sharqiyah region of Oman. Ibra has roughly 55,000 people and is about 170 km from Muscat. Being one of the oldest cities in Oman, Ibra was once a center of trade, religion, education, and art.
