The morning light in Muscat slants off whitewashed buildings and the sea pulls at the Corniche, urging you to walk its curve. On this city tour you move between salt-scented waterfronts and quiet alleys: the call to prayer threads through the air as vendors unwrap baskets of frankincense and bundles of spices, while port cranes and small dhows sway in the harbor.

The tour runs approximately 2–4 hours depending on traffic and how long you spend at each stop.
Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque is typically included; modest dress is required and some areas may be off-limits to non-worshippers.
Major stops are wheelchair accessible and transport is air-conditioned, but older souq alleys have uneven paving that may limit access.
