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.

Our trip to Japan was great. All our Goway arrangements preformed like clockwork and the guides for the tours were wonderful. Unfortunately, Mt. Fuji was in total fog but at least the lunch was very good and so was the drum solo, also our tour guide kept our spirits up ( she was the best). Taryn picked hotels that were very convenient to the meeting point of our tours which was much appreciated and organized all aspects of our trip perfectly. So from our airport pickup to our last day in Tokyo everything ran very smoothly so we have used Goway before and will certainly use it again and reccommend Goway to others.JW

Mary was absolutely fantastic to work with. She was incredibly responsive and quick to assist with every update and change my clients made throughout the planning process. Her expertise was invaluable, from recommending the perfect resorts to advising on the best way to travel between the islands. My clients loved every moment of their trip, especially their resort stays and overwater bungalow experiences. As this was their honeymoon, creating a seamless and memorable journey was so important, and Mary exceeded expectations. They rated their experience a 5 out of 5 and could not have been happier. Thank you, Mary, for your outstanding support and attention to detail. I truly appreciated your partnership and would not hesitate to work with you again for future South Pacific Island bookings.

We had an exceptional experience with Goway Travel on our recent trip to Africa. From start to finish, every detail was thoughtfully planned and flawlessly executed, which made the entire journey stress-free. The recommendations on where to go and what to do were absolutely fantastic! Each stop felt perfectly curated and exceeded our expectations. It was clear that Goway truly understands the destinations they offer and knows how to create a memorable, well-balanced itinerary. A special thank you to our travel consultant, Bijal, who was outstanding throughout the entire process. Bijal was incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and supportive while we prepared for the trip, ensuring that all our questions were answered and that every detail was taken care of. Their guidance made a big difference in building our confidence and excitement leading up to the trip. I would highly recommend Goway Travel to anyone looking for a seamless, expertly planned travel experience. We will definitely be using them again for our future adventures! Harjit C

Elisa planned our trip. We were met at the airport by Paul who drove us to Arusha. Adam, our guide and driver was with us the whole trip and was very knowledgeable about the country and the animals & birds we encountered. Accommodations were excellent, meals were delicious and the Tanzanian people we met at each location were so kind and welcoming. A wonderful trip.pat vickers

We had a wonderful trip to Peru for 11 days organized by Goway. Overall the trip was great, we loved our guides throughout, some of the hotels were truly amazing and it was helpful having everything organized and having a point person to ask questions and check in while we were there. Some main highlights were: 1) Machu Picchu- I am so glad we did two tours, because the weather was perfect for views, but also had an opportunity to see Machu Picchu more in depth with a knowledgeable and friendly guide and had a little extra time in Aguas Calientes to shop, explore and even visit the butterfly garden and do some birdwatching. 2) Cusco especially the Hotel Aranwa Cusco. The hotel was incredible, excellent service, modern updates, it was a true highlight of the trip. Cusco itself was also a highlight, loved our half day tour, plus getting ideas for our guide on what else to see in our free time and where to eat. 3) Lima- Aloft Miraflores was another highlight, very modern, nice pool and the best breakfast out of the hotels we stayed in. The location in Miraflores was also perfect, as there were plenty of restaurants, cafes and attractions nearby. 4) Everyone at Condor was great, from ensuring we had all our documents, tickets and itinerary to even stepping in to get water and agua Florida when we were feeling the altitude sickness the first hours in Cusco. Most of our rides and transfers were very comfortable and made the trip run smooth through all the different locations. I have been telling my friends and family how wonderful the experience with Goway has been for our Peru adventure. Eric Paul Schatzel
