Description

Discover Salalah and its cultural treasures on a private tour with driver-guide!

You'll begin your exploration with a visit to the famous Land of Incense Museum, located in Al Balid Archaeological Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This museum, comprising two main halls, traces the fascinating history of the incense route and the maritime evolution of the Sultanate of Oman. You'll discover meticulously carved replicas of the ancient ships used for maritime trade.

You'll continue your visit through the verdant plantations of Salalah, where you'll have the opportunity to taste a fresh coconut (own expense) while admiring the scenery. Next, a photo stop is in order in front of the Sultan Qaboos Mosque, before passing the official Palace of His Majesty the Sultan, Al Husn.

Your exploration continues with a stroll through the old Haffah souk, renowned for its high-quality incense and traditional souvenirs. You'll be intoxicated by the incense scents that permeate the place, and you'll have plenty of time to shop before returning to your hotel.
