What you can expect
Embark on an enchanting group tour from Muscat to the verdant terraces of Jebel Akhdar and the traditional village of Birkat Al Mouz. Begin your adventure with a scenic drive through the Hajar Mountains, leading you to the ancient city of Nizwa, renowned for its impressive fort and bustling souq.
In Nizwa, explore the historical fort, a marvel of Omani architecture, and wander through the souq, where you can find an array of Omani handicrafts, silver jewellery, and traditional artefacts. After soaking in the rich culture of Nizwa, continue your journey towards Jebel Akhdar, also known as the “Green Mountain.” This area is famous for its terraced agriculture, particularly the cultivation of roses, pomegranates, and other fruits. Take in the breathtaking views of the mountain's verdant slopes and deep canyons.
Next, visit the picturesque village of Birkat Al Mouz, nestled at the foothills of Jebel Akhdar. Stroll through its ancient falaj irrigation system, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and admire the mud-brick houses surrounded by lush date palm groves.
Throughout the tour, enjoy the company of your knowledgeable guide who will share insights into the region's history, culture, and natural beauty. This group tour is an excellent opportunity to experience the diverse landscapes and rich heritage of Oman in the company of fellow traveller.
