LUXURY HOLIDAYS & TOURS OMAN

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.

“EVERY TRIP EXCELLENT – AND MORE TO COME”
I’ve been on several small group holidays with The Ultimate Travel Company and every one has been outstanding. My most recent trip in February was no exception – expertly organised, responsive to questions, and full of memorable experiences. The itineraries are well thought out, the hotels top-notch, and the group sizes just right. Their tour leaders are knowledgeable, supportive and great company. I haven’t looked elsewhere since discovering Ultimate – and I’m already planning my next.

The itinerary was spot on. Claire really listened and understood the kind of holiday I wanted – from the hotels to the pace of the trip. The team on the ground were exceptional: friendly, efficient, and always one step ahead, helping with everything from flight check-ins to tax-free procedures at the end. The guides were knowledgeable and genuinely helpful. I had an amazing time. Thank you!

“TAILORED TO PERFECTION”
Our holiday in Thailand was superb – custom-built exactly to our preferences. The Ultimate Travel Company were super attentive, listening carefully to what we wanted and designing an itinerary and hotel selection that really delivered. Even while we were away, they responded quickly to a query. A brilliant experience from start to finish.
