Discover one of the true gems of the Middle East! Oman has it all—crystal-clear sea, deserted beaches, majestic mountains, mysterious towns, and ancient forts.

We’ll visit and photograph places rich in history (some of them UNESCO World Heritage Sites), breathtaking landscapes, local people, animals, and much more. Our expedition will take us into the highest mountain range, the Hajar Mountains, where we’ll hike along the rim of Oman’s own version of Death Valley. You’ll also experience a stay in the desert, including an adrenaline-filled photo session of cars racing over sand dunes. We’ll explore deep canyons with natural water pools—perfect for a refreshing dip. Despite its location, Oman is surprisingly green, and in many places, you’ll feel as though you’ve stepped into a story from One Thousand and One Nights.
