🇴🇲 Ramadan in Oman

17–27 February 2026

11 days / 9 full days of experiences + 2 travel (half)days
You only need 9 days of vacation.

Ramadan in Oman is one of the calmest and most magical times of the year. The country slows down, the atmosphere softens, and tradition, family, neighbourhood unity, and generosity come to the forefront.

In 2026, Ramadan begins on 17 February — and you have a unique chance to experience its first days right in Oman.

You can look forward to a colourful program filled with nature, mountains, deserts, oases, and history, just like during the regular dates — but with the added value of deeper authenticity.
During Ramadan, local people do not eat or drink during the day. It is therefore recommended to avoid eating in public. You can accept the challenge and fast together with the locals, or simply eat discreetly from your own supplies. After sunset, we will enjoy dinners together in restaurants or as part of our accommodation.

Oman in its most colourful form

Each day takes us into a different world — mountains, sea, ancient towns, mysterious beehive tombs, canyons, oases, and traditional desert cities with sand-coloured forts. Stunning nature, unique views, and stories hidden in clay houses, stone alleys, and deep mountain valleys.

This journey is designed for nature lovers and travellers who enjoy variety, regardless of age.
The program is flexible — more demanding activities are always optional.

We will travel by car between locations, and if you prefer not to join a hike, you can enjoy a slower pace and simply relax in beautiful surroundings.

Small group
Estimated cost without flights: 38,000 CZK / person

A return low-cost flight can be purchased for up to 9,000 CZK. Due to rising prices, I recommend buying flights as soon as possible.
If you fly on a different flight than the rest of the group, you can join us directly in Muscat.

Included in the estimated cost:

  • Accommodation — verified guesthouses and traditional houses.
    (Price is based on double rooms. A single room can be arranged for approx. double the accommodation cost.)

  • Transport in Oman — 4x4 car, taxi within Muscat

  • Care and guiding throughout the entire journey

  • Part of the meals (about half), provided within selected accommodations

Not included:

  • Flights — I will help you choose and book them

  • Travel insurance — arranged individually by each participant

  • Entry fees and local guides (for safety on certain challenging hikes)

  • Meals in restaurants (usually up to 200 CZK per person per meal)

  • Drinks and snacks for trips, bought in local markets

Note: I am not a travel agency and do not sell tours under Act No. 159/1999 Coll. Each participant pays their own expenses, and I organise and guide the journey as a self-employed professional under the licence "Operation of a travel agency and guiding services in tourism."

Why is Ramadan the ideal time to travel to Oman?

  • The country becomes calmer, kinder, and even more welcoming.

  • Nightlife comes alive — traditional dinners, markets, cultural atmosphere.

  • Locals are exceptionally open and hospitable during Ramadan.

  • A great opportunity to experience the culture up close — not as a tourist, but as a guest.

  • Ideal weather: warm days and pleasant evenings.

Our journey through Oman

Together we will explore a land where wild nature, ancient history, and the kindness of local people meet. Our days will be full of discovery, new experiences, and also space for slowing down, breathing, and listening to ourselves and the world around us.

🏚 Ancient clay villages — we'll walk through abandoned mud houses where every step echoes centuries of history.

🌴 Traditional mountain village — overnight stay in a UNESCO-protected area with an ancient irrigation system; sunset over the canyon.

🏡 400-year-old heritage house — taste traditions and culture in a home transformed into a living museum.

🏞 Clay houses beneath a dramatic canyon — accommodation at the bottom of a majestic gorge with views of Oman's highest peak.

🏛 Mysterious beehive tombs — more than 4,000 years old and listed by UNESCO.

🥾 Famous mountain hike — along the rocky face of "Oman's Grand Canyon," passing through silent mountain villages and absorbing the peace and power of the mountains.

🛍 Traditional market — full of spices, fresh fruit, traders' voices, and the sounds of livestock; sunset by a legendary sand-coloured fort.

🕌 Muscat — visit the grand mosque and the Royal Opera House; those interested can explore museums, wander through the famous market, stroll along the harbour promenade, and swim in the sea.

Throughout the journey, we'll not only enjoy the places and experiences, but also time for ourselves — quiet moments, optional evening sharing, and space to simply be.

Why go now?

  • Ideal weather (November–March is the best travel season in Oman)

  • Maximum experiences in a short time

  • Deep contact with nature and traditional Omani culture

  • Authentic atmosphere and meaningful encounters with locals

  • A chance to understand Oman far more deeply than on a typical travel-agency tour

❤️ More than a holiday — an experience for life

This journey is not just rest — it is an immersive experience of life in Oman.
Every day brings a powerful personal impression, and the mountains, sea, sand-coloured forts, ancient clay villages, and lush palm gardens will stay with you long after you return home.
