The Classic Oman tour will introduce you to one of the most unique destinations in the Arabia – a striking desert land where history, warm hospitality and fabulous scenic spectacle combine with adventure and the romance of the 1001 Arabian Nights. This private tour of Oman stands out as it is led by an experienced Omani guide, enabling you see and experience the magic of Oman through Omani eyes. As the journey unfolds the cultural, historic and scenic highlights of the Sultanate will be revealed as well as the rich traditions and culture of the Omani people. The Classic Oman tour will take you through striking wild wadis, crosses the magnificent sands of the Wahiba Sands from North to South in a 4WD vehicle, visits beautifully restored forts, and includes a dramatic walk along one of Oman's prettiest mountain trails. Your Omani guide will also introduce you to crumbling medieval mudbrick villages, luxuriant oases with thousands of swaying date palms, lively traditional markets, and exotic souqs heavily laden with the scent of frankincense. It is through delving deeper into the scenery and culture of Oman that the Classic Oman tour delivers such a memorable insight into the Sultanate.
