Oman
Cloaked in ancient history and out-of-this-world landscapes, Oman is the Middle East’s best-kept secret that everyone is finally starting to notice.
Often overshadowed by powerhouse destinations like Dubai and Abu Dhabi, Oman uses it’s quieter and more secluded position to focus on retaining its nation's natural beauty and preserving relics of bygone eras; something you may be shocked to see after witnessing the soaring skyscrapers of glass and gold that characterise the aforementioned destinations.
Oman is home to dramatic cliffs, rocky outcrops and plunging canyons; it’s almost otherworldly. Wander along these mottled, craggy formations and watch as the sun sets behind the mountains, or pull up a chair by a private table overlooking the cliffs and dine under a pitch-black night sky studded with stars. This romantic and exclusive destination was made for honeymooners who dare to be different.
Travellers seeking Arabian history beyond the glittering skyscrapers of UAE will love Oman as well; as the wind-blown deserts and remarkable mountains give way to tranquil villages and towns that still retain its frankincense-trading past. Discover glittering jewellery and hand-loomed rugs at enchanting local markets, or opt for a family escape that promises seclusion and a much-needed escape from the hang-ups of modern technology.
Oman is blessed with consistently warm weather, and the best time to visit is between October and April, when the temperatures are warm but not scorching. Avoid January and February as the rain falls in short, sharp bursts and also take care during June and August when the heat soars.
