Day by day
Day 1: Arrival in Nizwa. Nizwa Fort is a fortress known for its round tower, cannons at the entrance and tall rooms. From the top you can see palm groves and the town. After arriving at the Anantara Al Jabal Al Akhdar Resort, this is an excursion you can enjoy at your leisure.
Day 2: Bahla Fort. Bahla Fort is a fortress with a walled settlement, built of mud bricks and stone by the Banu Nabhan tribe. It lies a little outside Nizwa, so plan the journey. A day on which you see mud architecture with your own eyes.
Day 3: Al Hoota Cave. Al Hoota Cave is a cave system about two million years old, with four lakes and rare species such as blind fish. The visit leads into cool depths. Set aside a morning, plan a calm afternoon afterwards and enjoy the contrast with the desert heat.
Day 4: Nizwa sheep market. The Nizwa sheep market is a meeting place for traders and farmers. Ask in advance on which days it takes place, as it is not held daily. Go early, watch and take photographs respectfully. A day on which you may observe local life.
Day 5: Nizwa Old Town. The old town of Nizwa is a tangle of alleys with a souq, silver traders and frankincense. Go in the morning, haggle in a friendly way and buy what you like. A day for wandering, with a tea in the shade and a stop at the fort.
Day 6: Hoota Cave Adventure. The Hoota Cave Adventure is a programme around the Al Hoota cave. Ask in advance about content and duration and choose from it. A day that combines nature and movement without overwhelming you. In the evening there is tea and stillness.
Day 7: Fort of Nizwa. You can visit Nizwa Fort a second time, with more calm and different light. Falaj Daris Park recalls the oasis's old irrigation system. A day for walking, looking and understanding how water makes life possible in this region.
Day 8: Farewell to Nizwa. The visit to the site of the Capital of Islamic Culture is your last stop. Ask at the hotel about how to get there. Afterwards, have breakfast in peace, take a last look at the fort and drive to the airport without hurry. A tea in the shade of the fort and a walk through the souq round off the farewell.
