  • Swim in natural hot springs at the old village of Rustaq

  • Discover the golden sands of the Wahiba Desert and the Empty Quarter – the least explored desert in the world
  • Traverse the Sugar Dunes and the Bedouin desert town of Rub Al Khali
  • Keep your eyes peeled for hardy Bedu and their camel caravans
  • Examine geodes, prehistoric small solid or hollow rocks lined with crystals
  • Swim in the turquoise waters of Salalah
  • Arabian nights under a blanket of stars. Soaring sand dunes and labyrinthine cities. It’s time to live out your Lawrence of Arabia fantasies.

    Less than 100 years ago, the Empty Quarter had not been mapped let alone crossed by western man. Now it is your chance to embrace the hypnotising landscapes and cultural traditions of this Arabian jewel. Arid landscapes and rolling dunes. Encounter camel trains and the Bedu’s who escort them, mingle with the Bedouins who have lived in these harsh conditions for centuries. Few travellers will get to experience such a remote, untouched yet sparsely beautiful region of our planet.]]>
