Relax in the afternoon and evening, after checking into Anantara Al Baleed, before cocktails and dinner with your expedition group. The following day, Salalah is yours to explore with your private car, driver and guide. We recommend the following three options:
The Highlights of Salalah: Take in Khor Rori, an 1st-century archaeological site on the "Frankincense Trail". Drive to Mirbat, another stop on the trail, known for well-preserved mudbrick houses and the Mausoleum of Bin Ali. Journey to the Al-Qara Mountains to see the supposed tomb of the biblical prophet, Job. Conclude your day at Al-Mughsail Beach, famous for its blowholes, and enjoy a breathtaking mountain drive along the Hairpin Bend Road.
Jebel Safari Exploration: Explore the Dhofar Mountains, stretching 300 kilometers along the coast. Explore Wadi Darbat, a lush natural oasis, discover Tawi Attar, home to one of the world's largest sinkholes, and ascend to Jebel Saman, called the 'Grand Canyon' of Dhofar, offering panoramic views of the coast and the Qara mountains.
Day at Leisure at Anantara Al Baleed: Relax and indulge in leisure activities at the resort (additional costs may apply) including dolphin watching, wine tasting master classes, and sailing the bay of Mirbat aboard a traditional dhow boat.
