Muscat, Full Day City Tour

Location Bait Al Zubair Museum, Muscat, Oman

Moon Tours Oman

Embark on an unforgettable adventure through Muscat's captivating landmarks with our skilled guides.



The Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque stands as a prominent landmark in Oman, open daily between 08:00 and 11:00 hours, excluding Friday and public holidays. For visitors, the dress code mandates covering arms, legs, and heads with a scarf for women, while men should adhere to wearing a normal shirt and trousers.

Our journey continues with a visit to the Amouage perfume factory, followed by a tour of the Amouage Perfume Museum. This museum provides inspiration and enlightenment regarding Oman's cherished brand, Amouage, offering insights into the rich heritage and craftsmanship of Oman.

As we proceed towards the fish market, we traverse through the districts housing government buildings and diplomatic enclaves. Alongside, we explore the enchanting beach street in Al Qurum, featuring the Fish and Vegetable Market.

Upon reaching the Mutrah Souq, renowned as Oman's largest traditional souq, we continue our exploration with a visit to Muttrah Fort. Nestled atop a mountain ridge, this fort served as a strategic stronghold against maritime and terrestrial threats since its inception in 1507. Subsequently fortified by the Portuguese in the late 18th century, additional structures and defenses were erected during the reign of the Al Busaidi dynasty. The fort underwent restoration efforts in 1980, making it a worthwhile destination for historical and architectural appreciation.

To complement our cultural journey, we pay homage to Bait Al Zubair Museum, situated adjacent to Muttrah Fort. Here, visitors can immerse themselves in the rich tapestry of Omani culture and history, including insight into the royal family. Additionally, Old Muscat offers glimpses of the Al Alam Palace, allowing for a leisurely stroll through the palace grounds and a chance to observe the twin forts constructed in the 16th century by the Portuguese, Jalali and Mirani.

Lastly, we conclude our itinerary with a visit to the Royal Opera House, showcasing the distinctive architecture of contemporary Omani design. Recognized as the official home of classical music and the arts, the Opera House Complex accommodates up to 1,100 individuals and includes facilities such as a concert theater, auditorium, lush landscaping, a cultural marketplace with shops, luxury dining options, and an art center dedicated to various forms of performing arts.
