Discover Muscat and surroundings by car

Nestled on the Gulf of Oman and surrounded by mountains and desert, Muscat offers a wonderfully unique experience that’s sure to take your breath away. With modern day skyscraper landmarks towering over century-old ruins, the mix of old meets new is a distinctive characteristic of Oman’s picturesque port capital – so where should you head first?

Well, how about a trip to the Grand Mosque – a modern piece of Islamic architecture gifted to the nation by the Sultan Qaboos to mark his 30th year of reign? Or, the Royal Opera House which boasts an enchanting Arabesque design? Mutrah Souq also makes for an unforgettable shopping experience and if you head to the harbour, you’ll see the striking blue and gold pillars of the Sultan’s Palace – which while closed to the public, is well-worth admiring from the front gates.

Al Jalali Fort, built during the Portuguese occupation in the 1580s, is also well-worth a visit and then there’s the Sultan’s Armed Forces Museum which will give you a more detailed insight into Oman’s fascinating history touching on the country’s international relations and military prowess.

Surrounded by beautiful beaches, Muscat is also the ideal place to soak up some rays or splash in the waves with Qurum Beach being a top spot for families. Amongst Oman’s most-popular beaches also includes Khalouf Beach to the south of the city where towering sand dunes provide the perfect backdrop for fishermen looking for their catch of the day. Coconut groves and banana plantations go right up to the water’s edge at Mughsayl Beach and for crystal clear waters where snorkelling is highly recommended, make your way south along the coast towards Tiwi Beach – being sure to pass by the renowned Bimmah Sinkhole which locals often say was formed by a falling star.

Why not also head out into the desert with the Empty Quarter – the world’s largest uninterrupted mass of sand – being a great place to experience the vastness of desert life at its very best? While in Oman you could also venture to the heart of Wahiba Sands for a night camp and a camel ride.

Driving in Muscat

When driving throughout Oman, be sure to stay on the right hand side of the road unless you are overtaking. In Oman you must be 18 to legally drive and 21 if you want to rent a vehicle.

If you are heading out into the desert, be sure to always have enough fuel in the tank to complete your journey and take your time navigating unfamiliar and often bumpy roads. It is also very important to follow local speed limits as these will help to keep you safe. As a rule, it is 40-80kph in urban areas, 90kph in rural areas and 120kph on the motorway.

As Oman is a Muslim country, alcohol is strictly forbidden. Those caught drink driving could receive a jail sentence or be deported.

When parking in Oman, you must know the rules to avoid fines which are often eye-wateringly disproportionate to the offenses committed. These include never parking in front of public buildings including royal palaces, petrol stations, fire stations and on bridges. You cannot park outside a house, only in the drive, and you mustn’t park anywhere except in a metered bay.

Magnificent Muscat

As the beautiful port capital of Oman, Muscat is a bustling and culturally rich hub decorated with timeless attractions that will captivate your heart and mind. From the Grand Mosque to the Royal Opera House and the Sultan’s Palace, you’ll find opulence at every turn, so why not pick up a car rental from Muscat Airport and see what you can discover?

Tour the coast

With access to four wheels, you’ll be able to take a leisurely drive along Oman’s spectacular coast at your own time and leisure. While golden beaches line the city of Muscat itself, you can hop behind the wheel and head out to unforgettable locations with the Bimmah Sinkhole being a unique place for a swim and Tiwi Beach providing an exceptional snorkelling experience.

Venture out into the desert

What would a trip to Oman be without venturing into the desert? Whether you want to tour the Empty Quarter or take a camel ride through Wahiba Sands, you won’t be disappointed and can even camp out overnight to see how bright the stars glow away from the manmade light of the city.
