Oman

Positioned on the southeast corner of the Arabian Peninsula, bordering the Gulf of Oman and the Arabian Sea, the Sultanate of Oman is often described as an island between two seas - of water to the east and of sand to the west. Indeed, the seas have helped define Oman's history; shipping copper to Mesopotamia and frankincense to China and whilst the ports of Muscat and Salalah continue their long tradition of maritime trading, Oman's seas are nowadays also renowned for their sparkling turquoise waters rich in underwater flora and marine life. Lining these inviting waters is a 1000-mile coastline dotted with pristine, white sandy beaches and secluded, intimate coves.

Essential Oman

oman-holidays-essential-chedi-LISTING.jpg

A visit to Muscat is fun-packed and extremely civilised. Yet, a journey into Oman's beautiful interior provides rich rewards. The sands of the desert have a mystical effect on those camping under the stars, and the wadis and high plateaux of the Al Hajar range hide a way of life that has changed little. Travel to Nizwa, the ancient capital and cross the mountains back to cosmopolitan Muscat.
