About This Program

A captivating 12-day journey through Oman's dramatic landscapes — from the soaring Green Mountains and ancient forts of Nizwa, through the golden dunes of Wahiba Sands, to the cosmopolitan charm of Muscat and the pristine tropical beaches of Salalah.

This extraordinary private tour reveals the many faces of Oman, a land of striking contrasts where dramatic mountain canyons give way to endless desert dunes, and ancient frankincense trails lead to pristine tropical coastlines. Beginning high in the Al Hajar Mountains at Jebel Akhdar — perched 2,000 metres above sea level — you will explore rose-growing villages, trek through spectacular canyons, and discover the ancient city of Nizwa with its imposing fort and traditional souq. A night under the stars in the Wahiba Sands desert offers a taste of Bedouin life before you continue to Muscat, where contemporary elegance meets centuries of maritime heritage. The journey concludes in Salalah's Dhofar region, a hidden tropical paradise of coconut palms, frankincense trees, and silky white sand beaches — a world apart from the arid north.
