Discover Oman's Cultural Riches

The Sultanate of Oman is steeped in history, offering limitless opportunities for cultural immersion. Begin your journey in Muscat, the heart of Oman, where modernity and tradition coexist in harmony. Here, you can explore the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, a masterpiece of Islamic architecture, known for its grandeur and exquisite details.

For a taste of local life, wander through the bustling Mutrah Souq. This vibrant market is a sensory delight with its colourful stalls and the aroma of exotic spices. As you meander through the myriad of shops, don't miss the chance to haggle for unique souvenirs, from handcrafted silver jewellery to intricately woven fabrics.

Private Experiences in Oman

To indulge in private experiences in Oman, venture beyond the city to its charming countryside. The oasis town of Nizwa, once a centre of education and art, offers a glimpse into the nation's storied past. Visit the Nizwa Fort, a testament to 17th-century Omani architecture, where you can absorb panoramic views from its towering battlements.

For a truly unique experience, consider a private guided tour of the ancient city of Bahla, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Walk through its historic walls and discover the ancient secrets held within its pathways, an encounter that promises both intrigue and inspiration.

Nature's Majestic Canvas

Oman's natural landscape is as diverse as it is enchanting. From the serene beauty of the Al Hajar Mountains to the tranquil waters of Wadi Bani Khalid, nature enthusiasts will find themselves in paradise. A private Oman trip could lead you to the spectacular Jebel Shams, known as the "Mountain of the Sun," offering dramatic vistas and invigorating hikes.

Descend into the depths of Wadi Shab, where you can dive into turquoise pools surrounded by breathtaking cliffs and lush greenery. This idyllic spot is perfect for a refreshing swim, a picnic amidst nature, or simply soaking in the serene atmosphere.

Desert Adventures

No visit to Oman would be complete without an adventure into the desert. The expansive Wahiba Sands offers a sea of rolling dunes, extending as far as the eye can see. Embark on a thrilling 4x4 excursion or enjoy a camel ride as the sun casts its golden glow over the endless sands.

For an unforgettable experience, consider a night under the stars in a traditional Bedouin camp. Enjoy hearty Omani cuisine by the fire while listening to tales of the desert from your welcoming hosts, enhancing the sense of mystique and allure that Oman embodies.

Culinary Delights

A journey through Oman is incomplete without indulging in its rich culinary heritage. Sample traditional dishes like Shuwa, a succulent slow-cooked lamb delicacy, or Majboos, a fragrant rice dish spiced to perfection. Culinary adventures can be further personalized with private cooking classes, allowing you to discover the secrets of Omani cuisine firsthand.

Venture to the coastal city of Sur to taste fresh seafood at its finest, experiencing the catch of the day prepared with local flavours. As you savour the variety of dishes, you'll find that Oman's gastronomy is as diverse as its landscapes and cultures.

You should try a Zen meditation session. Imagine slipping into a silk kimono for the day—carefully tied by an expert dresser, every fold precise, every colour chosen to suit the season. It’s a ritual that feels as personal as it is timeless.

What do I love about Japan? In a word - EVERYTHING. The incredible contrast that Japan offers - new/innovative vs old/traditional, the warm and welcoming people, the incredible rich culture, the culinary wonders awaiting around every corner, the cleanliness, efficiency and safety. It's one of the best places to visit in Asia in my opinion.

Pub Street in Siem Reap, Cambodia, is a local favourite with very inexpensive drinks. It's also a great place to try the local delicacy, BBQ frog.

I love how laidback and relaxed Laos is compared to other countries in Southeast Asia. It's like the best of Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand all rolled into one, and then sent back in time 20 to 30 years.

Everything was expertly planned, from the drivers to the hotels to the tours to the flights. We particularly enjoyed Hobart and the animal sanctuary, Adelaide and the trip to Kangaroo Island, Melbourne and the evening tour with dinner and drinks, and Sydney with the private boat cruise of the Harbour. We will definitely use Goway again.SARA Wiebe

There were 4 travelers on this trip. All of us were in our late 70's. We started planning this trip 6 months prior to our travel date and had a lot of questions regarding this trip. Our Goway Travel Specialist, Karen Larrota, always answered our questions in a timely and complete manner. We traveled to Quito, Ecuador, the Galapagos, The Sacred Valley in Peru, Machu Picchu, and Cusco in Peru. Not only were the destinations and accommodations excellent, but every tour guide and driver were beyond excellent. The entire trip went smoothly every step of the way, which was amazing given the fact that there were numerous flights and hotels included in our package. We found out that the tour company that Goway used, Condor Travel, checked on us with our guide to make sure we were doing OK which we thought was very nice but also amusing as we are fairly fit older adults. Would also like to mention that we did a cruise thru the Galapagos on the Galapagos Legend which was arranged thru Go Galapagos - Kleintouurs. This portion of our tour was also excellent as were the wildlife guides and staff. We continue to discuss how wonderful this trip was with our family and friends and how wonderful this experience was. Would definately use Goway for our travel needs in the future.Dianne

After spending some time with our agent, we felt that she understood exactly what we had in mind as far as the level of service, etc, we were hoping for. The trip exceeded our expectations. Lori kept us busy(not too busy!) and we had many, many very exciting experiences. Bruce Belshaw

Aylin is an exceptionally proficient advisor. Coordinating my clients simultaneously often feels like herding cats, but she has remained patient and accommodating through every modification and delay. Goway continues to be my go-to for complex itineraries, and they never disappoint.Nick Cron, ACC

My daughter and I had a wonderful 2 weeks in New Zealand! The country is so beautiful and the people so friendly. Our destination specialist did a great job with planning and organizing the itinerary, choosing our hotels, and organizing transportation. The hotels were absolutely beautiful and we had great views. We felt right at home and found all of the staff to be friendly and accommodating. There were no issues with our itinerary and our excursions we were always on the list. Our transportation was always ready and waiting for us. We want to thank Goway Travel for their hard work and patience with us in planning this trip. Any changes that needed to be made were communicated timely. We also want to thank you for the beautiful weather during the entire 2 weeks it was perfect every day 😀. It was a memorable trip that we will never forget and we will think of Goway when we plan our next adventure. Because it was not just a vacation; it was an adventure!Connie Wenhardt

Brigitta Fuller is Amazing! She was my group coordinator. She understood the assignment and all the nuances I was trying to achieve. The itinerary she curated was fantastic. If you want someone who truly cares about her group and what they are trying to achieve. I will always reach out to Brigitta first for Europe groups. Kathryn Walker

My clients had a wonderful time on their trip to Easter Island. They were very pleased with the Hare Nua Hotel Boutique and especially noted the warmth and hospitality of the hotel staff as well as their excellent breakfasts. Jaime Vargas-Hendandez was an exceptionally gracious and knowledgeable agent, who went out of his way to ensure that my clients had the best possible experience. I will definitely contact him for future bookings and will recommend him to my colleagues.Alethea Kardas
