Wahiba Sands

About this tour

Embark on an unforgettable journey to the heart of the Sharqiya region, where the majestic Wahiba Sands await to mesmerize you with their vast sea of dunes, stretching over 10,000 square kilometers. Renowned as a quintessential vision of Arabia, these rolling dunes rise up to 100 meters and create a stunning landscape that captures the essence of the Omani desert.

Experience the thrill of dune driving with our expert guides, and immerse yourself in the raw beauty of this unique ecosystem. Wahiba Sands is not only a haven for adventure seekers but also a vibrant habitat for wildlife. Despite its arid appearance, the desert supports an astonishing array of flora and fauna, including over 180 species of plants and 200 species of mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians.

The region is also the cultural heartland of the Bedouin people, whose hospitality and traditions add to the richness of this adventure. Learn about the Bedouin way of life from the 3,000 inhabitants across various tribes such as Janabah, Mawalik, and Hikman, who call these sands home.

Your adventure doesn’t end in the sands; next, you’ll visit Wadi Bani Khalid, a striking natural oasis that contrasts vividly with the desert. Here, amidst the rugged mountains, you’ll find serene pools of clear, natural green water—a perfect respite after the exhilarating desert experience.

Join us daily for this 8-hour tour, complete with a picnic lunch, and let the Wahiba Sands transform your perception of the desert into a place of wonder and excitement.
