Thinking about a trip to Oman and wondering whether the capital is worth more than just a quick dash from the airport? Trust me, Muscat will completely charm you with its blend of ancient tradition and modern luxury<\/strong>. But right off the bat, I have to let you in on one absolutely crucial thing that catches almost every traveller off guard. Muscat, you see, is not a compact city at all<\/strong> in the way we’re used to in Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In reality, the whole urban sprawl stretches a good fifty to seventy kilometres along the coast<\/strong>, with individual districts constantly separated by dramatic rocky mountains and wide motorways. So forget the idea of lacing up your trainers in the morning and strolling through the whole centre on foot. Without a rental car or the reliable Careem app<\/strong>, you simply won’t get far here, because the distances between the sights are enormous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article we’ll take a look together at 15 tips on what to see and do in Muscat<\/strong> so you can squeeze the most out of it. I’ll guide you from the breathtaking Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque through the fragrant alleys of the old souq all the way to the most beautiful beaches and day trips<\/strong>. I’ll also advise you on which district to base yourself in strategically and what to watch out for from a practical point of view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
