Wadi Al Hoqain | An Amazing Wadi Near Muscat | Oman Road Trip

Join the final part of our Oman travel vlog! On our last day we still managed to find an incredible adventure in Wadi Al Hoquain. Also known as Wadi Hoqain, Wadi Woquain, Wadi Hoqeen, etc., this lesser-known wadi is, for us, one of the best wadis of Oman. Join us as we explore the Hoqain River with some swimming in the Blue Pools of Hoqain and some wadi jumping.

This amazing wadi is right up there with Wadi Shab and Wadi Tiwi for us. And at only 100 minutes' drive from Muscat, it's an easy one to include on any itinerary of Oman tourist places to visit in the Sultanate of Oman. But along the way we had an unexpected face-off with a wadi snake as well as some terrifying insect life!

This episode starts on a more peaceful note with a visit to the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque in Muscat. Join us as we share an extensive tour of this grans mosque, which was built in honour of the late, great Sultan Qaboos.

Our Oman tour finishes where it began, at Mutrah Corniche. Make sure you watch the end, as we look back on the highlights of our amazing two week Oman road trip. We also share some top travel tips to help travellers, such as yourselves!
