Itinerary

  1. Looking for fantastic places? Well, you've come to the right place. Mountains, sea and wadis - that's what Oman is. This trip will take us to an amazing and majestic wadi, with its mysterious pools, crystal clear waters, outstanding natural beauty and surround sound. In the morning we meet and depart from Muscat towards the city of Sur. Along the way, you will enjoy a breathtaking view of the ocean, from where you can see almost the entire coast and watch the majestic mountains on the other side.

    2 h

  2. Upon arrival at the WADI SHAB village, a boat is waiting for us, which will take us from one coast to the other (travel time is approximately three to five minutes). Then there is a wonderful journey through the Wadi (travel time - about forty minutes one way). When you reach the point where the walking route ends, some of our travelers will be able to relax on the shores of this amazing coast and enjoy swimming in the purest warm water, and the other part will swim along the waterway to the legendary grotto. Inside which you will see an indescribable natural waterfall with almost drinking water.This tour is for travelers who are looking for something different and unusual experiences in Oman. In this excursion, you will see the 2 most beautiful places that can make you plunge into childhood. You will see a real paradise on earth - the famous natural bridge to our beloved "Wadi Shab" (a wadi is a valley flanked by mountains).

    2 hAdmission included

  3. After visiting the wadi, we will go to another amazing place 9 km away from it. Already there we can explore the uniqueness of this place and enjoy everything that nature has given us. The Bimmah Sink Hole is an amazing lake formed a few hundred years ago after two tectonic plates were separated, forming a tunnel through which water from the sea goes underground and then comes out to the surface again. Having enjoyed all the beauty, we will return to our car and go to one of the most beautiful karst lakes in the world (included in the TOP-10), which is called "Bimmah Sink Hole" or, as the people say, "Devil's Eye". Local legends say that a star fell into this place, and underwater waters filled it with azure water. But unlike the wadi, the water in this lake is 50% fresh water, and 50% sea water, since it is located near the ocean With these wonderful experiences in the past and stories to tell friends, we return to Muscat where everyone returns home with a smile on their face.
