Exploring Oman’s mountains and interior involves negotiating difficult terrain. On this private tour from Muscat to Nizwa and Jebel Akhdar—the latter called the Green Mountain—there’s no need to worry about driving, with a driver-guide with good local knowledge at the wheel. Traveling from Muscat by climate-controlled 4WD, you’ll be whisked around Nizwa, Oman’s old capital; visit its fort and souk, and climb Jebel Akhdar for stupendous views and glimpses of remote villages.
