Muscat - Oman
The breath-taking capital of Oman, Muscat couldn't be in a more beautiful setting. The old part of the town, hemmed in by terracotta-coloured mountains, spans a graceful waterfront. Look out for the Sultan’s Palace at the water’s edge or visit the national museum.
The Muttrah Souk is a popular place for a walk. The maze-like souk is often referred to as the best in the Gulf region. Here you’ll find jewellery, traditional Omani crafts and food at reasonable prices.
