Reasons to visit Muscat
Aquatic excitement
As you fly into Muscat it’s impossible to miss the sparkling clear blue sea that gives the city much of its charm. You can take boat trips out to the port and beyond, where local dolphins, whales and maybe even some turtles can be greeted.
Wadi Shab Valley is a popular outdoor attraction. After a short hike to the waterfall, reward yourself with a tasty barbecue followed by a relaxing dip in one of the many freshwater pools.
Climb the heights of Jebel Shams
Several hours away from Muscat rests Jebel Shams, Oman’s highest mountain top. An all-day tour can transport you from the centre of Muscat to this iconic spot of natural beauty. Along the way you’ll encounter plenty of small towns and villages, giving you a taste of authentic local culture.
Nothing, however, will prepare you for the breathtaking sight of the mountain reaching almost 10,000 feet high and its deep canyon ridges formed over millions of years. A visit to Jebel Shams is like taking a journey back in time.
See the star attraction
The city’s Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque is a glorious example of modern Islamic architecture and may well be one of the first things you’ll want to visit after your Muscat flight.
Inside you’ll see the world’s second-largest hand-loomed Persian Carpet, a magnificent feat of design and craft measuring nearly 40,000 square feet. It took more than four years to weave – hundreds of people worked together to complete the carpet in time for the mosque’s grand opening.
Visitors should dress modestly, avoiding revealing or tight clothing. Females must cover their hair – suitable attire is available at a small cost once you arrive.
Things to know before you fly to Muscat
Airport transfers
Muscat International Airport (MCT) is around 10 to 20 minutes’ drive away from the central district. There are local bus transfers, but services can be unpredictable. Booking a taxi is one of the best ways to get from the airport to the heart of things. Be sure to agree on a price beforehand, as most taxis will not use meters.
Cultural considerations
Locals tend to dress conservatively, and guests are advised to do so too. Avoid tight or revealing clothing and wear long sleeve tops that also cover the shoulders. Swimsuits should only be worn on visitor beaches.
Plugs
Oman uses type G power sockets, with a standard voltage and frequency of 240V/50Hz. Consider packing a power adaptor should you need one.
Getting around Muscat
If you’re staying for a few days or even longer, hiring a car can be a good option if you’re planning on a variety of sightseeing trips. Tours with transport are widely available for many local and nearby attractions.

Why we love Muscat
“Muscat is a magical place you have to experience for yourself. Visit the Grand Mosque or the fish market in Muttrah. After sightseeing, find a restaurant where you can eat next to the seafront and watch the sun setting over the harbour.”
