Description

Begin your adventure with a comfortable hotel pickup from Muscat. Meet your friendly guide and set off in a 4x4 vehicle toward the historic city of Nizwa. Along the way, enjoy scenic views of the rugged Al Hajar Mountains, one of Oman’s most striking natural landscapes. Your first stop is Nizwa Fort, a 17th-century masterpiece and one of the country’s most famous landmarks. Explore its towering circular tower, hidden passages, and traditional Omani architecture. From the top, enjoy panoramic views of the old city, palm groves, and surrounding mountains. Just a short walk away lies the vibrant Nizwa Souq, a bustling traditional market where locals trade silver jewelry, pottery, spices, dates, and handwoven fabrics. It’s a perfect place to experience Omani culture and maybe pick up a unique souvenir. After exploring Nizwa, continue up the winding mountain roads toward Jabal Akhdar. As you ascend, the air becomes cooler, and the scenery shifts from arid desert plains to lush terraces and orchards. Upon reaching the mountain, enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant overlooking the valleys. Surrounded by panoramic mountain views, this meal is the perfect break to relax and refuel before the afternoon exploration. Next, visit Wadi Bani Habib, one of Jabal Akhdar’s most picturesque spots. This ancient village, built into the rocky cliffs, is famous for its abandoned mud houses and the serene wadi below. A short walk through the valley reveals hidden viewpoints and a glimpse into the mountain’s traditional way of life. Afterward, enjoy a guided walk from Al Ain village to Al Aqor village, passing through stunning mountain trails lined with terraced gardens, rose plantations, and fruit trees. Your guide will share stories about local life and the sustainable farming traditions that make this region unique. To end your day in the most relaxing way, settle down at Wadi N Café, one of the most scenic spots on the mountain. Sip your favorite coffee or drink while watching the sun set behind the golden cliffs — a moment of calm and beauty that captures the spirit of Jabal Akhdar. As the sun fades, begin your comfortable return journey to Muscat, carrying with you memories of heritage, mountain air, and timeless Omani charm.
