Oman is believed to be the Middle East’s best kept secret and the perfect place to experience the exotic and authentic Arabian spirit. You will find golden sand beaches, unspoiled desert wilderness, majestic mountain scenery, canyons as spectacular as America’s Grand Canyon, traditional villages and unique places to spot turtles hatching.
Amongst the barren desert, Oman offers a respite, tropical oases grow in abundance and you are not short of finding beautiful sights in Oman. Whether they are man-made such as the Nakhal or Bahla fort, natural springs or starlit sky over the Wahiba Sands, Oman has undeniable pure beauty. It is a land where the Bedouin values remain and tradition is upheld.
