Field Trip Organizer
  • Pick up from the Convention Centre and drive about 1 hour to arrive at Wadi Mayh.
  • The drive through Wadi Al Mayh is just over 20 kms, and you pass some pretty stunning landscapes and rocks – and some really unique geological features that may be easy to drive through unless you pay close attention. Spend about 4 hours here appreciating the landscapes, rock formations and discussing the geological features of this stunning area before driving off to Mutrah for a local lunch. 
  • Enjoy lunch at a restaurant, savoring some Omani food and from here begins your cultural tour for the day.
  • Visit Al Alam palace, Mutrah Fort, Mutrah souk and Mutrah Corniche followed by a drive around Mutrah.
  • Get dropped back at the Convention Centre by around 7-8 pm.
