Oman Desert Holidays
Oman Desert holidaysin Oman
While it’s perfectly possible, and indeed highly recommended, to visit the desert for a few hours from your city or beach base it’s far better to leave the bright lights behind and stay a night or two. Forget the gold you can buy in the souks, the real sparkle is amongst the undulating dunes of the desert. It’s magical to rise early and watch as the sun’s first rays hit this golden land. It’s equally a sight to savour when it dips over the horizon and the night sky impresses with thousands of twinkling stars. Aside from simply absorbing the unique environment, there’s no need to be completely idle.

Best time to go
With virtually guaranteed year-round sunshine, Oman is perfect year round. Summers can be blisteringly hot, with temperatures often in the 40sºC however, this does bring lower prices and therefore it’s great value during our school summer holidays. Winter months see pleasant Mediterranean like temperatures, making Oman a fantastic place to escape the cooler temperatures of the UK.
