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.

Allan Birkett at Goway has been an absolute godsend! Over the past year, he has helped me plan numerous vacations—especially honeymoons—and has been an incredible partner every step of the way. He is always quick to respond, patient with my clients' frequent changes, and goes above and beyond to help whenever an issue comes up. His knowledge, professionalism, and dedication make my job as a travel advisor so much easier. I truly appreciate everything Allan does and highly recommend him to anyone looking for exceptional service. Thank you, Allan, for always being thereBrooke Echols

Our 2-week trip to Normandy, Switzerland and Italy after we disembarked from the Queen Mary 2 in Southampton in mid-May was superb. Michael Keon did an amazing job of putting together highlights for us to see and visit with the short time we had. All the train reservations, private and small group tours and transportations were very well coordinated, on time, and usually exceeded our expectations. Drivers were courteous and knowledgeable. Mike did a wonderful job getting everything coordinated, in spite of our almost “last minute” booking. I booked a month-long trip through GOWAY back in 1989 for Australia, New Zealand and Fiji, and they were superb then. So I tried them again, and found the entire organization to be even better. Mike was quick to respond to any questions that came up regarding booksings and times, regardless of the 6-hour time difference. Just superb! Although we had a nasty experience in Milan, GOWAY was very responsive and saw to our requests and our needs. Again, Michael Keon is the person who coordinated our travel. I will ask for Mike when I travel again with GOWAY. I recommend GOWAY highly. PJ Wheeler

Goway helped plan our two week trip to Peru and they (Virginia in particular) did a great job. The on-site logistics with Condor Travel went very smoothly, and the trip exceeded our expectations overall. They proactively suggested changes to our initial itinerary which were welcomed. I would recommend them and would work with them again in the future.Kate O'Neill

I recently went on an African Safari with my brother-in-law and sister and another couple who I knew. The entire experience was absolutely unbelievable. The complete details were flawlessly coordinated from the transfers to the breathtaking lodges. Our guides Peter showed us Kenya and Maulid Tanzania were very knowledgeable and very sharp eyes for finding the animals. We were able to see the animals up close, learn a lot about the people, birds , vegetation etc. We had several sundowners in the bush really added to a magical experience with beautiful sunsets. I would highly recommend Goway to all my friends, they will not be disappointed. Thank you to Bijal for the excellent African Safari that you put together for us. You were wonderful.Nancy Hay
