OMAN & THE MALDIVES

Fly to Muscat then transfer by 4WD to a sleek hotel high up in the rugged Hajar Mountains where the whole family can explore the great outdoors, enjoy an abundance of activities, remarkable vistas and dine on delicious Omani cuisine. The Anantara Al Jabal Al Akhdar Resort sits on the edge of the canyon, an area famous for its damask roses. Close to a very modern Omani village, there are visits to abandoned villages, numerous hiking trails and the opportunity to visit the historic city of Nizwa.

After three nights, fly to Male then travel by speedboat to Anantara Dhigu Maldives Resort. The adventure playground sits on a talcum-powder-white beach, with over-water villas and others that are nestled into stunning natural surroundings with thatched roofs and dark woods. Spend five nights in a family-friendly resort relaxing and enjoying surf, tennis, diving, beach games and surfing before flying home on Oman Air.
