Oman: a region with vast swathes of searing white deserts, with rivers that meander through mountain ranges and breathtaking beaches that meet the deep blue Arabian Sea. It features a rich tapestry of Middle Eastern culture that has emerged from an ancient people that is today blended within modern influences, with which one can become completely absorbed.

Oman truly makes for an immersive holiday experience, and The Sultanate of Oman Ministry of Tourism makes for a rich online experience that covers every last inch of the region down to the very last beautiful detail. They cover all the practicalities, such as extensive guidance on getting to Oman, travelling within Oman and booking the very best accommodation. They also provide an immersive, interactive online experience where you can explore Oman through their interactive map.

The culturally enriching and visually enchanting experience that visiting the Sultanate of Oman provides may be no better demonstrated than through their coverage of the recent Kharif season, which promotes the region as the ‘Country of Peace and Love’, where tourists collect, locals celebrate and cultures merge to enjoy a diverse range of events that take place up in the Samahram tourist village, Al Magsil beach, Al Hisn souq and the wilayats of Taqa and Mirbat.

If this piece has whet your appetite for all of the exoticism of the Sultanate of Oman then contacting the Ministry of Tourism for the region will fill you in further on every last alluring little detail…
