Organizational Details

Our excursions are designed so that every visitor to Oman finds something special here.
  • What is Included in the Price
    Everything for your comfort is already covered: services of a professional Russian-speaking guide, comfortable transfer to/from your hotel in Muscat, and all necessary entrance tickets according to the program (including a visit to the Sultan Qaboos Mosque).
  • Logistics and Comfort
    We take care of all the arrangements. You will be picked up from your hotel, and between the attractions—which are located some distance apart—you will travel by car. This is an optimal pace that allows you to see the maximum without getting tired.
  • Uniqueness and Unforgettable Impressions
    The main highlight of the tour is a visit to the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque—an architectural wonder with one of the world's largest carpets and a chandelier adorned with Swarovski crystals. This opportunity is available only at certain times and requires adherence to a dress code.
  • Who is This Excursion Ideally Suited For?
    The tour is designed as a first introduction to the capital. It is perfect for families with children due to its comfortable format, couples seeking beautiful views for photos, and corporate guests who need a comprehensive overview of the country in a short time.
  • Organizational Details and What to Bring
    • Dress Code: For visiting the mosque, clothing must cover the shoulders, arms to the wrists, and legs to the ankles. Women must cover their heads with a scarf. Men should wear trousers and a t-shirt/shirt (no shorts or tank tops).
    • Recommendations: Comfortable walking shoes, a hat, a water bottle, and a camera.
  • Program Flexibility
    This tour can be made completely private (VIP). Upon request, we can change the start time, add lunch at a national restaurant, include additional museums in the itinerary, or exclude certain stops.
