Description:

Explore a 125-mile (200-km) stretch of desert landscape in the Wahiba Sands, flanked by the Hajjar Mountains and the Arabian Sea. Climb the towering dunes in your 4-wheel-drive car, marveling at how local people and a surprising diversity of flora and fauna survive in the harsh natural environment.

Turn off the tarmacked highway and explore a fascinating desert world south of Muscat on Oman's eastern coast. Observe how the winds in the area have shaped towering dunes, some nearly 500 feet (150 m) high. This is a delicate landscape, where the shapes and sizes are always changing as the gusts sculpt the region. Be glad of your expert guide on hand to navigate you safely through.

Encounter local Bedouin hamlets where nomadic people are still living off the land. You might catch sight of their camel herds, often raised for the popular pastime of camel racing. Complete your tour at the refreshing pools of Wadi Bani Khalid, with blue-green pools and lagoons perfect for cooling off.
