This wonderful journey starts by picking you up from your hotel and depart early from Muscat heading towards the al Dakhiliyah region. On the way we can make photo short stops upon your wish. It takes about 1.5 hours to reach the precious historic center of Nizwa to see the Nizwa Fortress, which offers splendid views of this ancient town and the surrounding mountains. One can walk around in this impressive fortress and visit its many rooms, passages and famed 40m-tall round tower with 360-degree cannon view. you can also take a walk around the souk market ‘Nizwa Souq’ where the local vendors offers home locally crafted goods such as pottery, jewelry, handicrafts and souvenirs.

Then we will drive up the Mountain of jabal shams to the stunning Grand Canyon of Oman. We can spend the afternoon hiking as also known as the Balcony Walk. It is about 4km hike (in each direction) with around 200 meters in elevation change and takes around 3-4 hours depending on how many photo and food breaks you take. The most beautiful part of hiking the Jebel Shams Balcony Walk is that you will be walking along the edge of the cliff while peering into the impressive depth of Wadi Ghul. The route ends at an abandoned village with a permanent pool of water in the rocky overhang above. In the late afternoon, once ever one get satisfied with this journey we drive back to Muscat.
