Nizwa — Fort and Souq
Embark on a scenic journey from Muscat through the dramatic landscapes of the Hajar Mountains to Nizwa, Oman’s ancient capital and cultural heart.

During your visit, enjoy a tasting of Omani halwa, dates, tea, and coffee — a true introduction to the country’s authentic flavors.

Jebel Akhdar — The Green Mountain
After discovering the cultural treasures of Nizwa, continue to the legendary Jebel Akhdar, the “Green Mountain,” known for its cool climate, terraced rose gardens, pomegranate orchards, and breathtaking canyon views.

Birkat Al Mouz — Heritage Village
The journey then takes you to the picturesque village of Birkat Al Mouz, where ancient mud-brick houses, lush date palm groves, and the UNESCO-listed falaj irrigation system create an unforgettable glimpse into Oman’s heritage.
