Muscat in the Night - Half Day Tour

Enjoy a four-hour evening city tour of Muscat – a magnificent Eastern capital showcasing its beauty in crimson-gold sunsets and soft nightlights.

You will be met with our driver at 04.00 pm and proceed for the tour. We will have a stop for photography at the Grand mosque of Oman, the Mosque of His Majesty Sultan Qaboos Bin Said, soft rays of night lighting bring a special look to marble. It's only open in the morning, hence entry is not possible. Later visit the Bait Al Zubair museum for a fine display of Omani culture and history. Proceed the tour with a photo stop at 16th Centuries Portuguese forts, Jalali and Mirani, and Al Alam Palace – the official residence of the Sultan.                                     

Proceed to the traditional market (Mattrah-souq) whose short, narrow, streets are full of the enchanting aroma of frankincense and at this time of day are full of visitors bargaining with local tradesmen. The quaint, ancient houses of the Corniche, where the souq is located, are illuminated with colored lights that create an inexpressibly mysterious atmosphere of the East atmosphere.                                                             

At the end of the tour back to the hotel.
