Comfortable way to see great sights!
Picked up from our hotel by Nabwan in a very comfortable SUV I slept the drive to Nizwa! A fascinating fort and market town and then followed by a trip to the mountains and the canyons. Our guide was fantastic informative and helpful where we could go at a pace of our choosing to see the must see sights when near Muscat.

Not to be missed
Watching a lady deftly prepare the Omani egg and cheese flatbreads at the Nizwa Fort ( ragag ma need na jibne) with a drizzle of honey was a highlight . Similar to the South Indian dosa except that the dough here uses wheat flour. This thanks to our amazing guide Ali who pointed out a lot of details that we might otherwise have missed
