Where exactly is Muscat? It sounds like some distant, magical, exotic place. And it certainly can be, depending on where you’re travelling from. The flight time from Central Europe is between 6 and 7 hours. The capital of the Sultanate of Oman is located at the very bottom of the Arabian Peninsula, next to the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Yemen. It sits right by the sea, making it easier to choose excursion destinations, tours or attractions. Simply extend your business stay and explore the Muscat region.
