Oman:
the magic of the desert, the essence of the sea
7:00 PM. Night falls in Muscat. Souq, Corniche, or even… the Opera!
Swim with dolphins, spot the Arabian leopard, or ride a camel
6:45 AM. From your private camp, you’ll see the Wahiba Desert from the air.
A country of contrasts. From blues to browns. From greens to whites. A country marked by its location between the desert and the sea.
Oman is genuinely Arabic and simultaneously genuinely marine. It’s the first place in the Middle East where the sun rises. And it does from the turquoise waters of the Sea of Arabia to then illuminate the whole country, from its valleys to its deserts.
A trip is always a search. In Oman you can search after many and very different things.
Search after virgin beaches. You’ll find hundreds of kilometres of stunning waters.
Search after fertile valleys. Its wadis are immensely photogenic.
Search after film-like deserts. The dunes in Oman kiss the sea.
Search after majestic mountains. The 3000 meter-tall Hajar Mountains call for adventure.
Search after hints of the epic of this country. Its mosques, fortresses, and palaces transport you to the millenary tradition of the country and to the footprint that was left in it by the caravan routes that crossed Arabia.
Search after the legend’s traces. The myth of Sinbad “the Sailor” remains present in its fishing villages.
Search after a sophisticated rest. It’s a country with a great political stability and is full of magnificent hotels where calmness reigns.
The search may continue, but before we must do a very simply thing: start the trip. Are you coming?
