Tour overview

After breakfast in your hotel, drive in an air-conditioned vehicle towards the mountains to trek at the tropical oasis of Wadi Bani Khalid, an oasis in the middle of the mountains. It is one of the most beautiful wadis in Oman and the natural pools with clear deep blue water offer you the chance to take a refreshing dip. After that, continue to Wahiba sands to experience the thrill of the huge sand dunes. This fascinating mass of towering dunes (some reaching nearly 200 meters), beautifully sculpted by the wind, is a delight for nature lovers and photographers!
