About Oman for visitors

Oman is a lesser-known Gulf jewel famous for dramatic fjords, mountain scenery, and Bedouin culture. Travelers venture inland from coastal Muscat to explore wadis, hike dramatic cliffs, and experience traditional hospitality in one of the Middle East's more pristine and less crowded destinations.

Muscat International Airport (MCT) is the primary hub on the capital's outskirts. Immigration procedures are straightforward and rarely congested; the airport is modern and well-organized, with clear directions to ground transport and onward connections.
