What you can expect

After picking you up from the hotel, the tour will start from Shatti Al-Qurum (next to Intercontinental Hotel). Forts and castles are Oman’s most striking cultural landmarks and together with its towers and city walls, have historically been used as defensive look-out points. It is estimated that there are over 500 forts, castles and towers in Oman.

Our first stop will be the charming ancestral village of Birkat Al Maws at the bottom of the green mountain, Jebel Akhdar. We will then head to visit the beautiful Nizwa centre with its Fort ( outside visit ) and its massive circular cannon tower, making it one of the most impressive forts in Oman. We will walk through the traditional Nizwa Souq then have lunch in a local restaurant.

After lunch we will proceed to the Jabreen Fort.The Jabrin Castle, built in 17th century, is one of the finest of its kind. Its magnificent plasterwork, the carved doors and the painted wooden beams of the ceilings makes this castle amazingly different .After we visit the Jabrin castle, we will drive towards the Jebel Shams one of the most famous mountains in Oman, passing one of the oldest small towns of Oman Bahla with its fort ( outside visit ) , before we reach back Nizwa city centre, from where we will drive smoothly to Muscat after a long day !

Tour will end in Avenue Mall & then we'll transfer you back to your hotel.
