Mutrah Fort Tours

You might be encouraged to visit today, but Mutrah Fort hasn't always been so welcoming! Learn the story behind this stronghold and exactly what it was designed to defend.

Mutrah Fort is the perfect place to begin discovering Muttrah. This history-filled fortress is recommended by fellow travelers, but it isn't the only thing to do here. Allow some time for other sights like Muttrah Souq, Qurum Beach, and Muttrah Corniche to really experience what the area has to offer.
