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.

“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.

“EXPERTLY TAILORED, EFFORTLESSLY ENJOYABLE”
We travelled to Indochina in January/February with an itinerary designed by The Ultimate Travel Company – and it was spot on. Rob, our consultant, really understood what we were looking for and created a journey that suited us perfectly. The choice of hotels was excellent, and the pace was just right, with enough time built in to relax and recharge between the different experiences. The service throughout was professional, personal and thoughtful – exactly what you want from a travel specialist.

“FAULTLESS AND FUN”
We’ve just returned from a Danube cruise with Douglas Skeggs and Joanna Worsley, with a few days in Vienna beforehand – all brilliantly overseen by Emily. From meet and greet at the airport to every detail on board the Amadeus Cara, the organisation was seamless. We’re already looking forward to our next Escorted Tour with The Ultimate Travel Company.
