Self-Drive Travel Oman
Self-Drive Travel Oman
Due to the well-developed road network – especially in northern Oman – it is recommended for tourists to explore the country independently with a rental car. To ensure a smooth flow of your trip, you should plan in advance which parts of the country you want to explore. Especially if you plan to spend one or more nights in the desert, you should ensure that the rental car has all-wheel drive and sufficient ground clearance. However, it is not advisable to explore the desert without the guidance of a local expert, even with the best off-road vehicle, as driving in the loose sand of the desert requires experience. Rental cars are generally available year-round in Oman. A small exception is the coastal region in the south of the country during the summer months. Due to high demand, there may occasionally be shortages. Therefore, it is advisable to also reserve a rental car when booking such trips.
