Guided by Omani mountain gurus, you’ll set off on a cultural adventure to discover the history behind the three villages of Al Aqr, Al Ayn and Ash Shirayjah. Pass through a medicinal distillery, mosques and traditional Omani houses – both abandoned and inhabited – as the guide fills you in on the area’s fascinating history along with intriguing details about local life.

After a day of exploring, take private dining to new heights with the Dining by Design experience on the cliff’s edge – with your very own butler and chef. Alternatively, turn up the heat and join the chefs in the kitchen. The Spice Spoon Cooking Class allows guests to accompany chefs to the souks to pick out ingredients.

End your trip on a high by checking yourself in to the resort’s world-acclaimed Anantara spa. With treatment rooms offering a combination of signature spa treatments and ancient hammam rituals, the spa’s philosophy is one of luxury combined with harnessing the essence of Arabia. We defy you not to feel rejuvenated after all of this.

The prize:  A 2-night stay in a Deluxe Canyon View Room for two including breakfast, return airport transfer, three village guided tour
