Overview

Our adventure begins in Muscat, with our first stop in the scenic village of Fanja — a perfect spot to capture beautiful photos surrounded by traditional charm and stunning landscapes.

We then continue to the captivating Wadi Bani Khalid, where you can take a refreshing dip in its crystal-clear mountain waters. Surrounded by palm trees and dramatic rock formations, it's a peaceful oasis ideal for swimming and relaxing.

Next, we head to the awe-inspiring Wahiba Sands Desert, famous for its sweeping golden dunes. Here, you’ll visit a traditional Bedouin house to enjoy authentic Omani coffee and sweet dates while exploring their beautifully handmade crafts. For those looking for extra adventure, a camel ride across the dunes offers a unique and memorable desert experience.

Then, we’ll find the perfect spot on the dunes to take in the golden glow of the desert sunset — a magical end to an unforgettable day before heading back to Muscat.
