Oman
Probably one of the most fascinating of Middle Eastern countries and one that has managed to remain the least touched by tourism, Oman is a place of tradition and amazing natural beauty coupled a rich heritage and culture. When going on Oman holidays travellers can discover a world of ancient fortresses, dramatic desert landscapes and truly hospitable people with genuinely warm smiles. As one of the most traditional Arabic nations in the Middle East, Oman offers entrancing experiences and memories to last a lifetime.
Introducing Oman
Adventure into the desert and sleep under the stars in a Bedouin camp. See the Sultan's palace in Muscat and smell frankincense in Salalah, or top up your tan on the beach and snorkel over protected reefs.
Oman combines the exotic appeal of desert adventures with the enchantment of Arabic cities and the allure of untouched beaches. A peaceful and prosperous country that welcomes visitors with open arms, it's one of the most forward-thinking nations in the Gulf region as well as the oldest independent state in the Arab world.
Choose your Middle Eastern adventure
Join us on a desert safari, as we drive across the dunes to meet Bedouin families and camp out under the stars. From one day to a whole week, your desert excursion can be as short or as long as you like. Just speak to our travel advisers and we'll tailor a tour to suit you.
Or perhaps you'd prefer to chill out on a private stretch of beach. With a panoramic coastline that seems to go on forever, and glistening waters where whales, dolphins and turtles thrive, Oman's untouched shoreline is simply irresistible.
Be enchanted by captivating cities
Flanked by mountains and bathed by the Gulf of Oman, Muscat is no ordinary capital city. Step inside its ancient forts, dine in its elegant restaurants and haggle for handicrafts in its colourful souks.
To see more of Oman travel inland with us to Nizwa to get a history fix in Oman's oldest city, or journey south and stroll past coconut groves and frankincense trees in the coastal town of Salalah.
Whether you'd prefer an action packed Arabian adventure, a relaxing beach escape, or a bit of everything, our knowledgeable travel advisers are ready to share the authentic appeal of Oman's welcoming cities, stunning landscapes and beautiful beaches with you.
We take care of all the planning, transport and booking for you, so you can enjoy the perfect balance of desert experiences, blissful beaches and captivating Arabian culture.
