From dramatic gorges to crystal clear sinkholes and beautiful luxury resorts, a holiday in Oman is full of extraordinary surprises. Sitting quietly on the edge of the Arabian Peninsula, you won’t find the gleaming skyscrapers and elaborate attractions of its flashy neighbours, but the Sultanate more than makes up for this with its natural beauty and culture.

OMANWITH ETG

OMAN<span class="indend">WITH ETG</span>

Visit Oman for a staggering diversity of landscapes, from dazzling beaches to golden deserts, with rugged mountains in between. With our distinctive, tailor-made holidays to Oman, you can swim with dolphins and explore ancient forts, camp in the desert or ascend canyons by 4WD. And it’s home to some wonderful hotels too.

Even with a short stop in Muscat (perhaps en route to India, Bhutan or The Maldives), Experience Travel Group will ensure you get a true flavour of Oman. Visit the remarkable Grand Mosque, the frankincense-infused souqs, the impressive Opera House… and you’ll still have plenty of time to catch the Arabian sunshine by the pool and try some of the delicious cuisines - think platters of Mezze with Indian and East African twists, featuring pomegranate, mint, aubergine and slow-cooked lamb. Don’t hesitate to get in touch to make your Oman holiday a reality.

Popular holidays in Oman

Oman has something to offer everyone, whether you’re short on time or looking for an immersive in-depth tour.  There are adventures big and small to be had in the dramatic and varied landscapes, so all ages will be happy here. Throw in a rich heritage and sprinkle with the warm hospitality this unassuming Middle East country is famous for and you have all the ingredients for an experience that will entrance families and couples alike. 

In addition, many travellers stop off in Dubai en route to the far East. However, as Oman is located just next door to the United Arab Emirates, it can make a fantastic alternative to break up the journey to more far-flung ETG destinations such as India, Bhutan or The Maldives.
