What to expect

Travel off-the-beaten-path on a private tour to the Al Batinah Region, Oman's hidden treasure. Drive past awe-inspiring mountainous landscapes towards a region brimming with natural beauty and cultural richness. During the journey, you’ll learn about the region's unique geographical features, along with the best spots for exploration and adventure!

Embark on an exciting expedition in a robust 4x4 vehicle, from the vibrant capital of Muscat to Wadi Al Hoqain, an emerald oasis nestled amidst golden mountains. Take a leisurely stroll along the valley, soaking in the serenity of palm groves and rugged terrains.

Then, traverse rocks, swim through crystal-clear waters, and dive into the untouched beauty of Oman's natural pools. If the weather is in your favor, you'll have the opportunity to cool off in the refreshing cascades of the waterfalls. This is your chance to unwind, capture stunning photos, and bask in the tranquillity of these secluded pools.

Next, journey to Rustaq, a city renowned for its towering castle and the unique Al Kasfah site. Take a moment to marvel at Rustaq's imposing castle before visiting Al Kasfah, one of the rare locations in the Arabian Peninsula where you can see an open-air natural sulfur hot spring. With water temperatures reaching up to 50 degrees Celsius, these therapeutic springs are still used by locals for medicinal purposes today. End your day of exploration and discovery, with return transportation to hotel in Muscat.
