You will be picked up from the airport or your hotel in Muscat by your tour guide to go to the Nizwa Souq. Nizwa was the former capital of the Sultanate and the birthplace of Islam in Oman. Its traditions are deep and will be felt during a visit to the old market where Omani handicrafts, sweets and spices are sold among many other items. It is particularly famous for its Friday cattle market with lively goat auction.

Explore Nizwa Fort. Built-in the 17th century, it is the largest fort in Oman with a landmark round Nizwa Tower.

Head to Jebel Al Akhdar. Akhdar means green in Arabic and by driving up the mountain with fruit and vegetable gardens on the man-made terraces built on the side of the mountain, it is easy to understand why it is given this appropriate name.

Admire the several jaw-dropping viewpoints. Take a beautiful walk along the edge of the mountain with stunning views over the deep valley, garden plantations and abandoned villages.

Come to Birkat Al Mouz, a beautiful settlement oasis that lies at the foothills of the great Jebel Al Akhdar mountain.

Go for a short walk between ruined traditional mud and clay structures around the abandoned old village of Sal Saybani through lush banana and date plantations.

Examine ancient Falaj Al Khatmeen water delivery system recognized by UNESCO World Heritage for Omani contribution to agricultural development.

At the end of the tour, you will be dropped back at your hotel.
