Unique Oman travel experiences for travellers from the UK

Hidden Gems for Discerning Travellers

Misfat Al Abriyeen

A traditional mud-brick village nestled in the mountains, where falaj irrigation channels still guide water through terraced farms. Offer clients homestays or guided walks with locals.

Ras al Jinz Turtle Reserve

Where guests witness endangered green turtles nesting on a protected beach—one of the most magical nature experiences in the Middle East.

Jebel Akhdar’s Rose Gardens

Invite clients to participate in seasonal rose harvesting and distillation workshops while staying in boutique eco-resorts overlooking dramatic canyons.

Desert Glamping in Wahiba Sands

Luxury Bedouin-style camps provide private dining, star-gazing experiences, and camel safaris—all curated to avoid crowds and enhance comfort.

Designing Unforgettable Itineraries

These offbeat options work perfectly when blended with highlights like the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, Mutrah Souq, or Wadi Bani Khalid.

You can pitch a 7-day itinerary that includes:

• Day 1-2: Cultural immersion in Muscat
• Day 3: Coastal turtle reserve exploration
• Day 4-5: Desert glamping and sunset dining
• Day 6: Mountain escape and rose water distillation
• Day 7: Relaxation and shopping before departure
