Wahiba Sands Desert - Bedouin House - Wadi Bani Khalid
We departed early from Muscat heading towards the Sharqiya region then continue our journey to the famous Wahiba Sands Desert, where you drive off-road and see stretches after stretches of pure sand and endless towering dunes. Here you will get to appreciate and experience the real feel and magic of the Omani desert. We have the chance to visit a traditional Bedouin house where we can try Omani coffee and dates (depending on availability), you can ride a Camel and drive to the dunes and take lots of photos. After this desert adventure, drive to Wadi Bani Khalid, one of the biggest and most beautiful wadis for which Oman is famous. The wadi canyon is impressive, with its amazing steep walls and breathtaking crystal-clear water pools it is awesome to look at on its own. However, one can also swim in the relaxing cool freshwater pool or sunbathe. The Wadi is so grand that you can even have the chance to walk deeper right into the Wadi itself or maybe visit its hidden caves then we head out to drive back to Muscat.
