The fort is an architectural testimony to the economic and military achievements of the early Yaruba dynasty from the mid-17th century.

Even along the corridors, many traps were laid to deter any intruders that might have penetrated the defenses.

My husband and I were so lucky to have Ali as our tour guide throughout Nizwa, Jebel Akhdar, and Birkat Al Mouz. Ali was incredibly kind and generous (offered us Omani tea & coffee on the way there & back and made sure we had water). He was excited to share his love for his country and culture with us. We never once felt rushed throughout the day - so much so, that we lost track of time and the tour day finished up a couple hours later than originally planned! Thank you, Ali, for a wonderful day! We wish we could have stayed in Oman longer to learn & see more.We had a fabulous day with Khalfan, who was a brilliant guide; we could not recommend him more! He was very knowledgable about the areas he showed us and took good care of us all day; providing plenty of water and helping us choose lunch! He also took lots of photos of us exploring.
