This fascinating half day tour will appeal to passengers who have a passion for history, and it starts with a drive to the Grand Mosque, a majestic white sandstone building. It was built on the instruction of His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said and can hold up to 20,000 worshippers. Your guided tour then continues with a trip to the city's market, the Muttrah Souk. Wares here range from exotic spices and silver trinkets to traditional Omani clothing and handicrafts. Barter for a bargain or two before heading back to the Bait Al Zubair museum, which chronicles Oman's history. View amazing displays of Islamic weaponry, art and household artifacts before driving to the Al Alam Palace, the official residence of Sultan Qaboos bin Said. The palace sits between two picturesque 16th century Portuguese forts, Jalali and Mirani. Take photographs before enjoying the scenic journey back to the ship.
