Experience
Oman
You couldn’t get two more contrasting neighbors. While Dubai is like walking into Disneyland in the desert, Oman is like waking up in an Arabian Arcadia. Infinitesimal desert dunes, sandstone forts that segue seamlessly into surrounding blonde sands, wadis filled with turquoise water that feels like stolen sanctuaries when you dive into them, and three seas to choose from for coastal escapism.
An enchanted Arabian jewel
The Sultanate of Oman is a country of breathtaking natural beauty and thought-provoking history dating back well over 5,000 years.Known as the Pearl of Arabia, and for a good reason – from its mountain landscapes to the calm waters of its Wadis – its quiet towns are lined with low-rise white buildings and its Bedouins live their golden traditions. This destination embodies the romance and mystique of
Arabia.Oman’s historic architecture is characterised by relics of several forts and watchtowers, some of which have been beautifully restored to their former glory and are open for visitors to explore.With a warm, welcoming and hospitable environment, Oman has indeed become a sought-after destination for nature and adventure activities, relaxing family holidays and productive business trips.
