Muscat

Oman is very good and safe place to live in, i really support you to take this challenge ..
Afcurs it's not like muscat (the capital) but it's also good to discover the pure Omani cultures

have a nice day

Ibri is closer to Abu Dhabi and Dubai than Muscat, but not that I bother to go there. Nice and quiet, it's my kinda place. Love the silence and lack of traffic jams. I can walk all over and my Indian tailor here makes better shirts than anything I will pay three times more for elsewhere on the planet.

So what if the road between Ibri and Bahla is currently a bit of a driver's nightmare? At some point the new double highway will be complete, allowing a really quick and safe drive to Muscat.

This place has everything an interested explorer will need. However, little of this is found on maps. Speak to the locals here and you will be surprised at just how much there is to do.
