Guided Tours in Oman

Written by: Philip Eichkorn Last updated at: May 21, 2025

For travelers who prefer a very individual and personal approach, there is also the option to take a guided tour in Oman. A local guide, speaking either English or German, leads the guests along a pre-determined route through the country. Such a journey provides culturally interested vacationers with a deep insight into Oman's history and small details of the Omani lifestyle.

Due to years of professional experience, many guides know some insider tips that one would not come across alone. Traveling through Oman in this way is particularly suitable for vacationers for whom organization and maximum comfort are important. English and German-speaking guides are available year-round, although the latter are usually a bit more expensive due to their higher qualifications.
