Trip Itinerary

Day 1 Into the Hajar Mountains

Staying at Alila Jabal Akhdar

On arrival in Muscat you will be greeted by your English-speaking local driver-guide for a 4x4 transfer to Alila Jabal Akhdar in the stunning Hajar Mountains. You'll travel via Nakhl, Wadi Bani Awf and Bilad Sayt, a beautiful journey surrounded by rugged landscapes.

You’ll be staying here for the next five nights in a large mountain view suite, perched 2000 metres above sea level. Take the rest of the day to relax and recuperate from your journey.

Day 2 Fortresses and Castles

For the next two days you'll have a private guided tour of the historic sites in the mountains. Today it's Bahla Fort, one of the oldest and biggest forts in Oman, and the only one in the whole country to be listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

This afternoon you'll visit Jabreen Castle, a very different experience from the typical Omani fort you saw this morning. Jabreen was built in peacetime by a ruler who was passionate about science and art, and this has made it the most beautiful historic castle found in the Sultanate. The perfect romantic location to finish a day of exploration.
