Frankincense Trail, Oman
This tour visits the Biblical "Nabi Ayoub" Prophet Job's Tomb, perched high up in the Jebels.
En route are spectacular views of the plains, mountain landscape and emerald green pasture land. Proceed to Mughsail Beach where the high tide sea water gushes through "blow-holes", perforations in the limestone rock.
Experience the exhilarating hairpin bends on the road to Yemen for 15 to 20 Kms en route to a Wadi; the views are breathtaking.
During the journey you will see plenty of Frankincense trees as they dot the landscape and at the nearby bird sanctuary you may see seasonal birds.
