It's as complete a history of Muscat and Oman, as you'll see anywhere. Oman is run by one man, the Sultan Qaboos bin Said Al Said. He came to power in the 1970's after deposing his father. Since then he's developed industry and opened up the country for tourism. Back on the Silver Wind the rooms are all suites.
Price varies depending on the size of the rooms.
Being on a cruise ship is a lot like being in a small town. It's got shops and restaurants, a casino and bars, a spa, a jogging track, a library, a small theatre and a hospital. There's one thing that you can always look forward to on a cruise, and that's the food. There's generally plenty of it, and on the Silver Wind it's quite good. On this ship they've devised a healthy menu and offer a variety of exercise routines to make sure you don't sink the ship after a few meals.
