Oman Holidays

Oman is one of the world’s most naturally stunning nations. Wherever you turn, you’ll see a landscape that will take your breath away, with charming civilisations tucked away among the country’s rugged landscape.  

Once an empire that vied for influence in the Persian Gulf and the Indian Ocean against the British and Portuguese, Oman is now a country focused on openness, health, education and welfare. It offers visitors a serene and welcoming atmosphere, which is a pleasant contrast to the fast-paced environments of neighbouring Gulf states. 
 
The country has a wide range of activities to enjoy, including ancient forts like the Nizwar Fort and Bahla Fort, hikes through the Hajar Mountains, and dives in the clear waters of the Daymaniyat Islands Nature Reserve. The country has so much weather diversity too, from the dry desert climate of Muscat to the lush greenery of Salalah.
 
Oman's cultural identity is deeply rooted in its Bedouin heritage, maritime traditions, and Islamic faith. The country's architecture, music, and art reflect these influences, creating a rich tapestry of cultural expressions. To preserve the landscape of the capital city and beyond, new building developments are limited to a height of below 5 metres – highlighting the Omani government’s focus on maintaining the country’s authentic, historic feel.

Above all, Oman is a peaceful retreat where visitors can immerse themselves in history, enjoy genuine Omani hospitality, and be amazed by a country with a view at every turn. The dnata Travel team has many years of experience creating incredible holidays to Oman and are on hand to build yours today.
