Oman isn't a budget destination, but it's well worth the cost. Its blend of forts, deserts, mountains and coastline makes it a rewarding trip whether you're traveling on a modest budget or looking for a more luxurious experience.
Oman is a diverse destination combining rich history, vibrant culture and stunning natural landscapes. Cities such as Muscat and Nizwa feature ancient forts, museums and traditional souks. In Muscat, the Muscat Gate Museum offers an insight into the country’s history, while the city is also known for its seafood, lively markets and delicious Omani halwa.
Beyond the cities, Oman offers beautiful beaches, spectacular deserts and nature reserves. Visitors can enjoy desert camping, sandboarding, camel trekking, hiking, dolphin watching, turtle encounters, diving, off-roading and wadi-bashing.
For nature lovers, highlights include the deep pools of Wadi Al Arbiyeen, the year-round waters of Wadi Ad Dayqah, the blind fish of Al-Hoota Cave and the peaceful landscapes of Wadi Al Ta’iyeen.
November through mid-March is Oman's peak season, with pleasant temperatures and reliable sunshine. If you'd prefer smaller crowds and don't mind the heat, summer is an option, just plan around the midday sun for outdoor activities.
