Musandam Dibba Tour Experience

The trip begins early in the morning when our luxury bus picks you up. You will be informed of the pick-up point and the exact pick-up time.

The change in the landscape would get your attention to the mountains of Hajr.

The Friday Market – An Old-World Charm

A word about the Friday Market that is an exceptional Bazar while approaching Ras al Khaimah. The Friday market is famous for beautiful carpets, local artisans’ created potteries, and organically grown fruits and vegetables. We will stop there so you can roam around, have tea/ coffee, and even buy some stuff for keepsakes.

The Hajr Mountain – Close Encounter with the Oldest Mountain Range in the Middle East

The mountain of Hajr is a range of calcified rocks with many uniquely shaped caves. The road-hugging this mountain ranges negotiates many hairpins bends to keep you gripping your seat. Very soon, the Persian sea appears on the other side. The blue waters of the Gulf run along on one side, and the imposing Hajr mountain range on the other side creates a mesmerizing view. Our tour guide-cum- bus driver shall stop buses at vantage points so you can take plenty of selfies.

The best part of the cruise is the dolphin safari. Dolphins are considered the most intelligent mammals after humans. These dolphins love to swim along with the Dhow and show off. You will never find so many dolphins too close to you in the Gulf. Many tourists come to Dibba, Oman, only to experience the dolphins.
