If you want to spend every moment of your Oman trip to the fullest and collect unique memories, this guide is for you. This program offers an ideal option for those who want to experience both the unique peace of the sky and the excitement of the desert.
A Unique Experience in the Sky: Sunrise with Royal Balloon Oman
Your adventure begins with the first light of day. Before the air even brightens, you slowly ascend into the sky in a hot air balloon amidst the silence. These early morning flights, organized by Royal Balloon Oman, start near the Sharqiya Sands camp areas and glide over the dunes, revealing the enchanting panorama of the Wahiba Sands desert.
This tranquil yet captivating journey becomes the most unforgettable moment of the Oman balloon tour experiences for many travelers. The view created when the balloon’s gentle glide merges with the golden light of the sunrise resembles a painting. This scenery, watched from the sky, stops time with its atmosphere where silence and serenity are intertwined.
What is a Desert Safari Experience in Wahiba Sands Like?
After the tranquility of the balloon tour, your adventure continues on land. Accompanied by experienced guides, you head towards the heart of the Wahiba Sands in 4×4 vehicles. At this stage, the desert safari (dune bashing) over the sand dunes takes the adrenaline to its peak. The vehicle offers an exciting driving experience, leaping from dune to dune.
This adventure allows you to closely observe the natural texture of the desert and Bedouin culture. Around noon, a short break is taken with local delicacies served at an authentic desert camp. Thus, both exploration and rest are experienced together.
A Unique Experience in Wahiba Sands: Leaving from Muscat for Sunset and Starry Nights at a Desert Camp
The final stop of the day is a comfortable desert camp located in the depths of the desert. Sunset is watched over the sand dunes. The sun’s disappearance on the horizon, reflecting every shade of red, turns into a mesmerizing view. The evening is spent in pleasant conversations accompanied by a traditional Omani meal. In this special area, far from city lights, where you can see the entire sky, millions of stars accompany you. Conversations around the campfire and stargazing with the naked eye make you forget all the day’s fatigue and make this accommodation experience unforgettable.
