What To Expect

Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque

The first stop on the Muscat City Tour is the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, a stunning architectural masterpiece featuring a massive prayer hall, intricate mosaics, and the world's second-largest handwoven carpet. Open to non-Muslims during Morning hours, it offers a peaceful ambiance for visitors to explore Oman's Islamic heritage. You can visit the mosque from inside in the morning except on Friday. The dress code needs to be followed (full length trousers, shirt covering the arm and a head scarf for the ladies).

1 hour • Admission Not Applicable

Mutrah Souq

From the Mosque, proceed to the old part of Muscat city: the Muttrah Souq - a traditional Omani market. The Souq offers a wide range of goods, especially typical Omani souvenirs like Frankincense, the Omani Dagger or Khanjer and beautiful solver handicrafts and "Pashmina shawls".

We are group of 8 People traveling Muscat. We were 4 in each car. The guide was in one car and we transitioned back and forth. The guide was very knowledgeable and curtious He knew his history. I would recommend this trip and especially the Mosque which was magnificent.

Knowing we would be in Muscat on a Friday, I was reluctant to book a tour as in Muslim countries usually everything is closed. So I went on the live chat to inquire and was reassured that the tour would proceed and everything would be as normal. Of course, when the guide collected us and started driving us around, the only thing open was the Souk for shopping ( which we were not interested in doing ). He drove us around for about 2 hours pointing out a few landmarks and museums, all of which were closed, and we were back at the hotel after approximately 2 hours. We paid over $400 for this tour. A complete rip off. I have written to the tour operator for a refund. I doubt this will be forthcoming.

Khalifa (+968 9923 2645) was one of the best tour guides we have ever had. Not just in Oman but elsewhere. Punctual. knowledgeable, experienced, informative, excellent English, extremely hospitable and a very safe and considerate driver- everything a guide should be. We have been to Muscat many times, but this time we decided to have a guided tour and it was well worth every Rial, for the insights and service we received. We went to the Sultan Kaboos Mosque, the fish Market. Mutrah Souk in the old city, the Royal Palace, the Parliament, the Opera House, a traditional Omani sweet store, lookout in the mountains and the beach. And then the piece de résistance, he hosted us for a sensational Omani lunch at his place.
