• 5History and Culture Nizwa Tour with Sultan

  Sultan is an excellent tour guide—very welcoming, knowledgeable, and hospitable. We met him on Friday morning for the cattle market which was quite the experience and then explored Nizwa Souq (which we enjoyed more than Muttrah). I very much appreciated his perspective on the history of the area and the country (and very willing to engage and answer any questions we had). And the Nizwa fort and learning about the Falaj system was great as well—highly recommend!

• 5Great tour through the highlights of Nizwa

  I spontaneously booked a tour with Sultan for a Friday morning. I have to say, I was really impressed and the tour was worth every penny! Sultan is very friendly and open to all questions. His information about the souk, the fort, Nizwa, and Oman in general was very exciting for me! I recommend the tour 100%.

• 5Great walking tour in Nizwa

  I can highly recommend this walking tour of Nizwa. Abdullah has a very deep knowledge of the city and its history. He hugely added to our enjoyment of the various souks and their products and the buildings they operate in. The castle was also very interesting. We went on a Friday (do this if you can) and the weekly goat market is fascinating. We would have missed a huge amount of interesting facts and sights in the city if we had done it on our own without Abdullah.

• 5Nizwa and Birkat Al Mouz

  We explored Nizwa Souq, Nizwa Fort and Birkat Almouz with Mohammed. An excellent warm insight into the region and its history. Mohammed collected us from our hotel on Jabal Akhdar and we spent 6hours with him which was great value. Our hotel was charging significantly higher for the same excursion.

About Nizwa

Nizwa is an old oasis town at the foot of Oman's Hajar Mountains, once the capital of the country, with a great round fort and a famous livestock market.

Nizwa stands in an oasis of date palms in the interior of Oman, where the Hajar Mountains meet the desert plain, and was once the capital of the country and a centre of learning and religion. The massive Nizwa Fort, built in the 17th century, has a tall round tower, and from its roof there is a view across the palms and the mountains. Beside it lies the souk, where silver daggers, pottery, halwa and dates are sold.

Top-ranked sights in Nizwa: Nizwa Fort, Nizwa Souk, Birkat al Mouz Ruins (Harat Al Siybani).
