Shangri-La Barr Al Jissah and Shangri-La Al Husn in Muscat are offering guests a backstage pass to the wonders of Oman with two extraordinary experiences that will leave you spellbound.
A Turtle Ranger's Tale
You can put on your imaginary ranger hat and join the mission to protect Oman's endangered sea turtles. As you patrol the resort's secluded beaches - among the top five nesting sites in Oman - you'll learn the art of safeguarding these ancient mariners. For the truly adventurous, dive into the crystal-clear waters of the Gulf of Oman on a guided snorkelling expedition. Come face-to-face with these gentle creatures in their natural habitat.
A Sensory Journey Through Oman's Soul
Prepare your senses for an explosion of flavours, aromas, and traditions as you embark on a cultural odyssey led by Khalid Al Amri, the world's first Omani Frankincense Sommelier. Your journey begins with a stroll through the resort's hidden nooks, uncovering architectural gems and artistic treasures. Then, step into a fragrant oasis - the resort's own Frankincense garden. Here, Amri will unveil the secrets of this aromatic resin, prized since ancient times. You can also learn the art of serving traditional Arabic coffee like a true Omani, while savouring local delicacies that will transport your taste buds to the bustling souks of Muscat.
For the finale, channel your inner chef as you learn to create an authentic Omani feast under the guidance of the resort's culinary experts. Then, savour the fruits of your labour in one of the resort's restaurants.
