OmanOf vast deserts and children's eyes shining with wonder

Visit a dhow factory based on centuries-old traditions and the open-air museum in the shipbuilding town of Sur. Even the little ones will be amazed. The dhow is a traditional sailing ship in the Indian Ocean. Afterwards, you will travel on to the Wahiba Desert, where you will spend the night in an authentic desert camp. Spend a cozy family evening enjoying Omani specialties and oriental entertainment under a fascinating starry sky.

Afterwards, take a trip to the green Wadi Bani Khalid. This beautiful oasis is the ideal place for a picnic and to cool off in its refreshing natural pools. After this relaxing break, enjoy an exciting drive over and through the breathtaking dunes of the Wahiba Desert. This is a real adventure for young and old alike!

After breakfast, set off for the town of Ibra, which boasts a historic old town that is well worth seeing. Then visit the village of Birkat Al Muz, which lies at the foot of the mountain, surrounded by desert ruins, plantations, and the Afjat, an ancient irrigation system and UNESCO World Heritage Site. The green Jabal Akhdar mountain is one of the most fertile places for fruits and flowers in Oman, and is where Omani rose water comes from. Experience the wonderful view from the Saiq Plateau and walk to one of the surrounding mountain villages. Further on in Wadi Bani Habib, take a short hike to an abandoned mountain village.

The lively animal market takes place on Fridays in Nizwa, the cultural capital of the country. On your way to Al Hamra, be sure to stop at Jabrin Castle, the most beautiful castle in all of Oman! Experience life as it once was and Omani culture in the unspoiled Al Hamra. A picturesque winding road takes you to Jebel Shams, the highest mountain in Oman. Here, the Omani Grand Canyon awaits you in all its rugged beauty.

Cross the western Hadjar Mountains, passing the village of Bilad Sayt, which seems like an island frozen in time. Wadi Bani Awf lies in a 300-meter-deep gorge. Continue on to the ancient castle of Nakhl for a photo stop, then fly from Muscat Airport to Salalah on the Indian Ocean. Explore the underwater world on a boat trip and, with a little luck, encounter the playful dolphins off the coast of Oman. Relax by the pool and beach or enjoy activities to suit your taste. We are happy to help you plan your leisure time: Would you and your children enjoy a fun camel ride on the beach?

An exciting and varied program awaits your children at the Kids' Club or Teens' Club. Enjoy a few relaxing hours in the spa with a massage or soothing treatment while your children take part in the numerous activities. If you would like to embark on an adventure together in between, we recommend the Ayn Athum waterfall as a breathtaking destination. In the evening, indulge in a culinary dinner and an exquisite selection of wines. A movie event under the stars rounds off the exquisite program.
