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.

I have worked with Goway several times in the past two years and every single trip has been unforgettable. Specifically, our travel advisor, Maria, has helped us book phenomenal trips to Thailand, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Ireland, and most recently, Iceland. Maria is so wonderful and easy to talk to, but what really stands out is her ability to get to know her clients so she can plan trips that perfectly align with our interests and desires. I cannot recommend her strongly enough! Her expertise, hard-work, and dedication towards each trip has given myself, my family, and friends memories to last a lifetime! Kayla Covello

I have been booking with GoWay for more than 2 years and feel so fortunate to have the best Travel Advisor, Maria Spitman, making our vacations unforgettable. I can’t say enough about Maria… she is personable, efficient, detail-oriented, and extremely knowledgeable about her specialty destinations. We have booked many trips with her, including Thailand, Spain, Portugal, Sicily, Iceland, and our most recent trip in Greece. Maria has not only curated nuanced itineraries, but has done so combining her vast knowledge of each region with our interests and needs being met perfectly. With that, it is evident that Maria learns about her clients to create vacation packages that far exceed expectations. I won’t book with anyone else! GoWay has a gem that is irreplaceable! I highly recommend seeking Maria out for all your destination needs. Darleen
