Oman 360°: Deserts, Souks and Turquoise Waters
The trip in a nutshell
Self-driven tour
This is a self-driven tour - it isn’t compulsory to drive, however if you are willing to, then please tick the box when booking your trip.
A trip to Oman that is so much more than a classic tour. An unforgettable adventure amidst the unique history of a land made up of sea, desert, dunes and culture.
In fact, the Sultanate of Oman is not just a desert, it is an Eden rich in natural wonders. During this tour we’ll lose ourselves in the Grand Canyon of Arabia, oases hidden amongst the dunes and mountains offering breathtaking views.
This is an itinerary that will follow incredible coastlines sloping down into the turquoise sea, fortresses, fascinating castles and characteristic rural villages. You will set off on an organised trip that will allow you to discover not only the incredible scenery, but also the culture and the people of Oman. We’ll see it all from extreme natural landscapes to the colourful markets offering local handicrafts, jewellery, essences and the ever-present incense.
