Explore Muscat through shuwa, halwa, Zanzibar snacks, Omani bread, karak tea, and mishkak on a small-group food tour.

“Great introduction to Omani food. Our guide, Hisham, was a great resource, very knowledgeable and personable. We sampled appetizers from Zanzibar, shuwa, mishkak, Omani bread and halwa. we planned this tour early in our time in Oman purposefully so that we are more versed in the local cuisine for the rest of our trip. I highly recommend this tour.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 5 reviews · from $239

Review of the Jabal Shams Food Tour from Muscat, with Bahla Fort, Grand Canyon views, family lunch, Omani halwa, price, and tips.

“We did 3 tours: Mountain food, Jabal Akhdar trek and Desert tour. We thoroughly enjoyed the presence of Salim and his knowlegde. All 3 tours had something special, but our favourite one was the Desert one, it was our first contact with tbe desert and we loved it. Great way to learn about the Omani culture through the 3 tours.”
