Nature & Wildlife in Oman

Oman's hill forts more than justify a guided 4x4 tour: freeing you from driving across what can be rough terrain and letting you focus on the forts' beauty, history, and surrounding scenery. This private tour from Muscat delivers: whisking you to 17th-century Nakhal Fort, up to the Ain Towarah hot springs, and then to Rustaq Fort. Hotel or port pickup and drop-off, lunch, and entry fees are included.

Explore Oman's Wahiba Sands on this small-group camel safari from Bidiyah. With a small group limited to 10 people or fewer, you are guaranteed personalized attention as you ride your camel through the desert and learn about Bedouin culture. Snack of Arabic coffee and dates included.

Driving up Oman's Jebel Shams mountain to see the country's Grand Canyon isn't recommended to anyone but seasoned off-roaders. This private full-day trip takes you there and back, with no driving worries. Marvel at the vast canyon from Jebel Shams' summit, and visit Nizwa, villages, and ancient ruins with a guide to navigate and provide background you'd otherwise miss. Lunch and return hotel transport are included for ease.
