Oman Holidays
A holiday to Oman promises unspoilt landscapes and ancient heritage that prove a surprising contrast to the diet of sand dunes and skyscrapers of some of its Arabian neighbours..On the coast, luxury resorts rest on pristine unspoilt beaches framed by majestic mountains and the sparkling Arabian Sea making Oman a perfect destination for those looking for a relaxing beach holiday.However there is far more to Oman than just beautiful beaches alone. The narrow streets, vibrant souks and impressive forts of Muscat have retained much of their ancient charm, whilst inland, a dramatic landscape of mountains and gorges, dotted with lush oases and hilltop castles, fringes the majestic dunes of the Empty Quarter. The vast dune sea of the Wahiba Sands could almost be straight out of Lawrence of Arabia and time spent amongst the Bedouin here is an unforgettable experience.Traditional culture and lifestyles are apparent here as nowhere else in the region - men can often be seen wearing the traditional ankle length dishdasha and sometimes even carrying a kunjar, an Omani dagger, tucked into their belt.
