Private Nizwa - Al Hamra Old Village - Misfah Al Arbyeen - Full Day Tour

We depart Muscat to Nizwa, approximately 8:30 AM, the old capital of Oman. We pay a visit to the famous Nizwa Fortress. Today, the fort is a museum that showcases the history of the fort and surrounding area. Walking through the fortress you get to see amazing views of the ancient town and the nearby mountains. This impressive fortress was a base used in the military to hold off the hardest attacks and sieges.

Next to the fortress is the large Nizwa Souq, a local marketplace that offers a variety of goods including jewellery, pottery, fish, and meats.

After, we take off to Al Hamra to visit the old village where we get to experience how the locals create a lifestyle in the older times.

Here you will get to see the large Falaj water system that supplies water to the nearby vegetation. There are numerous marked footpaths throughout the village that is recommended to take your time and explore. Late afternoon, we head back to Muscat, Oman.
