We then head to Muttrah Fort, which overlooks the old port and offers spectacular views of the harbor and mountains. From there, we stroll along the picturesque Muttrah Corniche, where the sea breeze and mountain backdrop create the perfect atmosphere.
No visit to Muscat is complete without exploring the bustling Muttrah Souk, one of the oldest markets in Oman. Wander through its labyrinth of narrow lanes filled with spices, textiles, jewelry, and traditional handicrafts — a true feast for the senses.
Our journey concludes at the Al Alam Palace Square, the ceremonial residence of His Majesty the Sultan. While entry to the palace is not permitted, the grand façade, flanked by the Portuguese forts of Al Mirani and Al Jalali, offers a stunning view and a memorable end to your city tour.
