My Oman Blog for travelers and explorers
After numerous trips to Oman, I lived in Oman for almost 2 years. In the meantime, I commute between Oman and Bosnia, my second home. During this time, my local friends showed me many wonderful places. In this little travel guide I will give you a first overview of the country, the people and the Omani culture.
My Oman travel guide – the most important at a glance
- The friendliness and hospitality of the Omani people is exceptional. You are welcomed with open arms.
- Oman is a very safe country. No trace of the political unrest of other destinations in the Orient.
- Must sees: Muscat, Salalah, Nizwa and Mirbat
- Muscat, the capital of Oman, offers a lot of culture and sights.
- The best time to travel to Oman is during the winter season. The climate is mild and dry. It gets pretty hot in the summer.
For those looking for a quick overview, I have compiled the most important info about Oman and answers to the most frequently asked questions.
