It's officially autumn in the Gulf, and that means temperatures are finally cooling down and people are venturing outdoors. This also means it's the perfect time to visit other Gulf countries and Oman should definitely be top on your list.
Not only will the landscape, culture and people of the Sultanate amaze you, from the generosity and friendliness of the locals to the breathtaking landscapes, but it's one of the easiest to access destinations for residents of the Gulf and has lax entry requirements for non-GCC citizens in comparison to some of its neighbors. Citizens of Gulf Cooperation Council countries (Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, UAE and Saudi Arabia) can visit completely visa free and many other nationalities, including Lebanese, can enter with a visa upon arrival.
Honestly, if you want to experience something unique and different – and no, we don't just mean beautiful sand dunes – Oman is waiting to provide you with an incredible adventure. From adventure spots, to tropical oasis, beautiful beaches and vast deserts, you're sure to be inspired. Still need some convincing?
