Exploring the breathtaking landscapes and rich heritage was truly an unforgettable experience for us. While the meals were generally delicious and offered a great taste of local cuisine, a couple of dining options felt a bit rushed, which slightly took away from the overall enjoyment.

We had an amazing week delving into the stunning landscapes and rich heritage of Muscat in Oman, where every day brought a new adventure. The traditional meals we shared, especially the delicious shuwa, added a memorable touch to our journey. While the schedule was packed, we sometimes felt rushed during the site visits, but the overall experience was truly rewarding.
