Desert and Coastal Oman Tour: Fanya, Ibra, Wadi Bani Khalid, Sur, and Wadi Shab

This private multi-day tour from Muscat suits travelers who want to explore Oman's desert towns, wadis, and coastline through local experiences and nature hikes.

Description

Begin by visiting the desert town of Fanya, known for its ancient mud buildings set against a mountainous backdrop. Continue to Old Town Mudhairib, where you can photograph historic ruins.

In Ibra, stroll the local market and enjoy a midday meal before exploring its ancient village. Spend the night in a desert camp after an adventurous 4x4 sand dune drive, taking in the sunset and dinner by the campfire.

On day two, visit Wadi Bani Khalid, one of Oman's largest wadis. Swim, relax, or picnic in its scenic canyon pools. Tour Sur’s sights, including a famous castle, then visit the Ras Al Jinz Turtle Sanctuary to observe nesting sea turtles or hatchlings. Overnight accommodations are provided at Ras Al Hadd.
