Travel guide to Oman
Oman, which is situated at the southern tip of the Arabian Peninsula, borders Yemen, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates, but it is distinctly a separate world. The inhabitants are exceedingly hospitable and live in a welcoming community that extends a warm welcome to guests. Exploring its wealth of desert, lush green oasis, and lengthy beaches is also made simple and enjoyable by its robust infrastructure.Read more
The national dress, which is still worn by the majority of the population, and the arabesque, low architecture of the cities in Oman, in contrast to neighbouring Gulf nations like the UAE and Bahrain, have maintained a traditional aesthetic and, for many, a traditional way of life, providing a wholly authentic cultural experience.Visitors immediately learn about the wide range of activities available in Oman's deserts and waters. Not only are the beaches in Oman great for swimming, but some of them are also used by protected sea turtles to lay their eggs, which is a sight not to be missed. As they move farther inland, travellers will encounter the Rub al Khali, often known as the Empty Quarter, a large desert shared by Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and the United Arab Emirates. The enormous sand dunes are the ideal locations for desert expeditions on a camel or a 4x4.
Oman, frequently overlooked in favour of its glitzy neighbour, the United Arab Emirates, is known as the "real Arabia," where Bedouin tradition, historic forts, and desert dunes combine to create a fascinating whole.
A stay in Oman will keep your senses excited from Salalah to Shinas, from shimmering beaches along the gulf to wide sandy plains and genuine oasis towns.
