| Overview |
The Sultanate of Oman on the Gulf of Arabia is a country of dramatic landscapes, with rugged mountains, arid deserts, lush green plains, and beautiful beaches. It is a land steeped in history with a fascinating culture that the whole family will enjoy! Our Oman family adventure begins in the historic city of Muscat and takes us to explore ancient forts and castles, desert oases and colourful souqs. We watch for turtles nesting and laying their eggs, and stay overnight at a desert camp, with a visit to a Bedouin house, "Desert Bashing" across the stunning dunes of Wahiba Sands, and also the chance to ride a camel. We explore Nizwa Fort, the old village of Misfah with its old mud houses, Al Hoota Cave with its beautiful stalactites and stalagmites, and Jabal Al Akhdar high in the mountains. Next stop Barka, with time to relax on the coast before we return to Muscat for a final night and the end of our family adventure. Please note that the child price is only applicable for children under 12 sharing a room with 2 adults, with a maximum of 1 child per room. If children are in a separate room, or if 1 child is sharing with only 1 adult, then the adult price applies.
