Muscat Private Tour
At your preferred time, we will pick you up at your hotel in Muscat to explore the capital. The first stop will be the Great Mosque of Sultan Qaboos, a key symbol of the city and an example of Islamic architecture. We will discuss its construction, five minarets, and decoration with Persian tiles and carpets.
Next, we will visit the Royal Opera House, notable for being built to Islamic standards. After this, we will head to Muttrah Souq, a large marketplace by the Gulf of Oman offering traditional carpets and various souvenirs.
The tour continues at Fort Muttrah, built by the Portuguese in 1580. From there, we will walk to Al Alam Palace, the official residence of Sultan Qaboos, set in a picturesque landscape. This luxurious building is remarkable for its architecture.
After approximately 5 hours of exploring the contrasts of Oman’s capital, we will return to your hotels in Muscat.
