At approximately 8:30 AM, we will take you through the gorgeous city of Muscat where we will first visit the Grand Mosque which, among a couple others, is one of the biggest 1-piece handmade Iranian carpet in the world.

Then after we drive to Famous Nakhal Fort, it lies at the foothills of the mountains in a nice small village which grows extensive date palm plantations. This magnificent 350 years old fortress rises out of the mountain rock, towering high above the ancient village as if still warning would-be attackers of its ominous strength It has witnessed many battles and is packed full of hidden escape routes and secret passages. You can stroll around the inside of this restored fortress and visit all the rooms which have been nicely decorated in the original old style. The view from the top of the fortress over the mountains and green date plantations is outstanding.

After the fortress, we will drive through the old Village of Nakhal to the hot springs. Here you will find a beautiful small green Wadi. The small river in the Wadi has hot spring water, in which you can bathe your feet in. You will see lots of locals here, who come to have a walk in the warm river water.

Then we drive to Wakan Village. The village is known for its terraced gardens and orchards where pomegranates, apricots, peaches and dates are grown.
