EXTRAORDINARY NATURAL BEAUTY

Set against a backdrop of rolling deserts, rugged peaks and lush wadis, the ancient kingdom of Oman is blessed with extraordinary natural beauty alongside a rich cultural heritage. Not to mention imposing forts, world-class hotels and the azure seas of the Arabian Gulf.

There is a great tradition of hospitality amongst Arab people, but nowhere in the Middle East is the custom of welcoming visitors extended more naturally, or more warmly.

In fact, Oman is a pretty warm country. Its winter sunshine is virtually guaranteed and Muscat (its capital) makes the most of it with immaculate beaches fringed by lavish resorts and water sports facilities of the highest calibre.

Beyond the spectacular coastline lies another world of historic forts, beautiful mosques and age-old settlements nestling between towering mountains and lush, terraced fields. Essential sights include the 2,000-metre high Saiq Plateau at Jebel Akhdar, the ancient oasis city of Nizwa (with its famous livestock market) and the golden dunes of the Wahiba Sands where you can sleep beneath the stars in luxurious, Bedouin-style tents.

Talk to one of our Oman experts and your tailored itinerary could also include a visit to turtle nesting grounds at Ras Al Jinz, or a tour of Dhofar in the tropical south. Not forgetting the charming coastal town of Sur, where traditional Arabian dhows are still built, and the fabled Empty Quarter – 250,000 square miles of unbelievable, awesome emptiness.

WHY CHOOSE US

TRUSTED BY FELLOW TRAVELLERS

“MONGOLIA STOLE MY HEART – A JOURNEY I’ll NEVER FORGET”

It was one of the best trips of my life. The itinerary you crafted for us was absolutely perfect; I wouldn’t have changed a thing. What made it even more special was the incredible team who looked after us. Edda was fantastic, and the two drivers we had for the Orkhon Valley and Gobi sections of the trip were possibly the best I’ve ever had.

“FLAWLESS, AGAIN”

This is the third time I’ve used TUTC. The service, as before, was flawless. Aside from putting in place all the major details of a complex trip to Japan, Dan at TUTC nailed every detail: train tickets were for seats with large luggage space (very important in Japan, as we discovered); a mobile internet wifi was included; together with a pre-charged use-pretty-much-anywhere travel card (again, important – Japan has multiple transport companies). For any kind of complex trip I won’t go anywhere else.

“IN SAFE HANDS, EVEN WHEN PLANS CHANGE”

Every detail of our Patagonia tour was expertly arranged – from transfers and flights to the choice of hotels. When our onward flight to the Falklands was delayed by two days, The Ultimate Travel Company stepped in immediately and secured a hotel for us. It was an enormous relief, especially as we don’t speak Spanish and had no idea what to do next. That level of thoughtful, responsive service stayed with us – it turned a potential travel hiccup into a lasting positive memory.
