What to expect

  1. Ain Razat
    30m
    Begin the day to the east of Dhofar at Ain Razat, a collection of natural springs, some of which are perennial and others of which are seasonal and only appear during Khareef (monsoon season). This location is also popular all year round and serves as one of Salalah's primary water sources.
  2. Wadi Darbat
    45m · Admission ticket included
    After stopping at Taqah, we drive to the most unexpected location in Dhofar, Wadi Darbat. It is hidden in the mountains overlooking Khor Rori, just after the Taqah coast. The Wadi is a natural park with breathtaking views of waterfalls, a large number of camels, lakes, mountains, caves, and lush green vegetation. During the Khareef season (monsoon), water from the mountains replenished the Wadi, creating magnificent waterfalls gushing from 30 meters (100 ft.) and cave chambers. Visitors can also enjoy a large picnic area.
  3. Taqah
    1h
    Following that, we will travel to Taqah, one of the coastal towns in Dhofar Governorate. Taqah is an ancient town and fishing village with an intriguing castle. Watchtowers and stone houses surround the castle. The rooms inside the castle are filled with antique jewelry, weapons, furniture, paintings, and everyday items that make the castle inhabitable.
  4. Sumhuram Old City
    45m · Admission ticket included
    Continue to Khor Rori Creek, the location of the ruined city Sumhuram and the ancient Arabian frankincense trade capital. Sumhuram Museum / Archaeological Park is one of the components of the UNESCO World Heritage Site known as the Land of Frankincense. It is located in Khor Rori, an ancient city where the frankincense and copper trade flourished.
