You step out of an air‑conditioned vehicle into a dry wind that smells faintly of salt and ancient resin; palms rustle, and ahead the Darbat valley drops into a green ribbon where water still runs. The tour threads coastal cliffs, a patchwork of wadi pools and a high ridge that sometimes rises above the clouds — half a day that compresses Dhofar’s contrasts into a handful of vivid stops.
