Trip Overview

Oman is a deeply historical and physically astounding country, and still an uncrowded one. This itinerary runs from the souks and forts of Muscat into the Hajar mountains, across the Wahiba Sands, and down to the turtle beaches of Ras al Jinz.

Travel is by 4x4 with a driver-guide, which is what the wadis and dune tracks require and what makes the detours possible.

Programs in Oman run from short stopovers to two-week journeys, either as small-group departures or as fully private touring. Every program is quoted rather than sold at a fixed price, so the figure reflects your dates, your party size and the hotels you choose.

Published programs include Salalah Stopover (2 nights), Muscat Stopover (3 nights), Glory of Oman (7 nights), Ultimate Oman (8 nights) and 1001 Nights Arabian Fantasy (13 nights). If none of them fits, we will build one around your dates. Custom itineraries are what we do.
