Arabian Odyssey: A Luxury Journey through Oman & the UAE
Introduction
All of our journeys can be completely personalized and curated with our commitment to sustainable tourism.
Journey Overview
Your odyssey begins in Muscat, where the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque showcases Islamic artistry on a breathtaking scale. Stroll along the Corniche and through Muttrah Souq before choosing a coastal adventure: a sunset dhow or seasonal snorkeling at the Daymaniyat Islands. Continue inland to Jabal Akhdar, where terraced gardens and pomegranate orchards frame gentle walks and village visits, while afternoons invite relaxation with mountain views.
In the cinnamon dunes of Wahiba Sands, experience camel rides, desert drives, and stargazing around a fire, with the option of observing nesting turtles at Ras Al Jinz in season. Return to Muscat for a night of leisure before flying onward to Dubai, where Old Dubai’s abra crossings and Al Fahidi’s wind-tower lanes offer a glimpse into the past. Balance these with the city’s striking contemporary architecture including the awe-inspiring Museum of the Future before retreating to Al Maha, a desert sanctuary within the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve. Here, falconry, wildlife drives, and camel treks unfold at your own pace. Conclude in Abu Dhabi, where the luminous Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, the Louvre Abu Dhabi, and kayaking through Jubail’s mangroves close your odyssey with culture, nature, and amazing memories.
