Overview
We will start our tour at the Tourist Office Hub. We will then walk to the fish market, I will give you some background regarding the building and an account of the fish trade throughout Oman's history.
We will walk to the back of the market as we look over to the anchored ships. I will explain how important Oman's maritime history was, and we will then walk along the corniche.
There, I will share some historical facts about the old houses and the corniche, and we will stop opposite the blue mosque for an account of Islam in Oman.
