Oman is not a country that can easily be understood from one city. Muscat provides an excellent introduction, but beyond the capital the landscape changes quickly.
Explore the city’s cultural and architectural highlights before discovering Mutrah, the Corniche and the old harbour.
Travel inland towards Nizwa. The historic fort and traditional market provide an opportunity to understand a different side of Oman.
Oman’s mountains offer a completely different landscape, with villages, viewpoints and areas of natural beauty.
Depending on the interests of the group, focus on mountains, desert landscapes, outdoor activities or cultural experiences.
Return towards the capital for a final experience, some shopping or a relaxed meal before departure.
Five days creates a useful balance: long enough to experience more than Muscat, but short enough to fit comfortably into a wider holiday.
