Nizwa & Jabel Akhder (Dela)
Beskrivning
På morgonen börjar vi vår resa till det förflutna genom Sumail Gap, som delar västra och påsk Hajarbergen. Efter detta beger vi oss till Omans gamla huvudstad, Nizwa, känd för sin silversouq och det stora runda fortet, byggt under Yoruba-dynastin. Efter att ha besökt souken och fortet, kör vi sedan till BirkatAlMouz, en vacker oas känd för sitt natursköna värde. Nå därifrån till Omans tak, Saiq-platån. En vacker by som endast var tillgänglig för åsnor, i hundratals år. Utsikten över terrasserade trädgårdar är mycket färgstark. En mängd olika frukter som valnötter, granatäpplen, aprikos och citron odlas här. Det finns många intressanta promenader i Wadi Bani Habib, Shrejaya och Aqur där vädret är svalt och torrt. Återvänd till Muscat på kvällen.

Den byggdes på 1650-talet av den andre Ya’rubi; Imam Sultan Bin Saif Al Ya'rubi, även om dess underliggande struktur går tillbaka till 1100-talet. Det är Omans mest besökta nationella monument. Fortet var det administrativa sätet för myndigheten för de presiderande imamerna och Walis i tider av fred och konflikt. Huvuddelen av fortet tog cirka 12 år att färdigställa och byggdes ovanför en underjordisk bäck. Fortet är en kraftfull påminnelse om stadens betydelse genom turbulenta perioder i Omans långa historia.
Denna souq ligger i närheten av väggarna i det berömda Nizwa-fortet. Dess byggnad omfattar både traditionella och moderna arkitektoniska linjer. Genom sina många gränder och divisioner har Nizwa Souq i hundratals år varit hem för ett antal lokala industrier, såsom dolkar, koppar, spinning, boskapsförsäljning, fisk, grönsaker och hantverk

Beautiful experience But the tour becomes magical thanks to Tahar
Excellent tour provided by Tahar, very nice and funny guide speaking French, passionate about the country and culture, sharing very interesting info and historic facts. Really friendly and accommodating and safe driver. Highly recommended.
I had a one-day private ride/guide experience to Nizwa and mountains. We left 8am from Muscat and beat the crowds at every step. Muhammed was an excellent guide through the day and the chosen locations were great — in old Nizwa markets and fort as well as in mountain sights. Next time I must take an extra day or two for a full hiking trip.
A fantastic heritage and nature tour, individually tailored to us. Added the Oman across Ages Museum (OAAM) south of Nizwa, a museum highlight on the Arabian peninsula! A big Thank you to Khalid, who provided us with great facts about Oman‘s history culture and entertaining stories on Oman daily life.
This is a long overdue review for our tours. We actually did two - one was a half day around Muscat and the other was Nizwa and Jabel Akhder. Khalid was our guide for the first tour and we enjoyed his care and knowledge of the area so much that we requested him to run our second tour. I cannot say how much we enjoyed these tours. My elderly parents came with us on the half day first tour of the city and we spent time according to our interest and their capabilities. When my husband and I toured Nizwa and Jabel Akhder a couple of days later we were in for a real treat. Khalid took us to some awesome spots that were not necessarily in the plan but that he thought we would enjoy. Oman is such a beautiful country - and we had some very good discussions with Khalid also about the culture, economy, and the people themselves. I highly recommend this tour company and Khalid specifically, if you can book him, for any visit to the Muscat area.
We had a private tour to Nizwah and the green mountains… Tahar is your man! (That’s If you’re looking for a great day out, lots of information and a super friendly atmosphere) We’re looking forward to doing with him another private tour tomorrow 😀
Thank you Suleiman for being our private guide and driving us to Nizwa and Jabel Akhder. The old Capital Nizwa is very interesting, the souque, the fort and city tour ... just a pitty that we requested a late start and that we therefor missed the live stock market. Ohlala, the views in the mountain were impressive and we felt totally safe going up & down the steep hills and the many curves. We really enjoyed your company, all the interesting information you shared and the great dates that you selected. It is a pity that we only met at the end of our trip, but we will contact you when we visit Muscat again.
Most of the time you write beautifully or great in such reviews. Today I use the word breathtaking. But I would like to start with our nice, pleasant, humorous and smart young guide Mousa, who not only showed us the sights professionally, but also shortened the trips between the stations with entertaining conversations about Omani culture and history and life in general. Mousa first made a detour with us to a village with a thermal spring, which is used by the residents through a practical canal network for bathing and irrigation. Next stop was the old capital Nizwa with the historic fortress. Next to the interesting fortress we visited the market. For us, the highlight of this trip was the visit to the terraces of Jabel Akder. Fantastic scenery, historic villages and the impressive terraces.
Excellent tour with a very, very nice driver. He responded to all our wishes and the day flew by
Thanks to Khaled our top guide with whom we were able to exchange all day on a thousand and one things, we spent a day as pleasant as interesting. Visit the beautiful souk and fort in nizwa then the plateau of jabel al akhdar. He made us discover all this by paying attention at all times to our interests and our desires. To do without hesitation
