Oman can be a great option if you are looking forward to a destination with diverse landscapes and rich historical values. With its tranquil ocean, mesmerising coastlines, rugged mountains and golden desert stretches, this country captivates most travellers' hearts. Moreover, you can enhance the amusement with a bunch of activities like scuba diving, kitesurfing, hiking, paddling, etc.
However, you must note a few things before visiting this dream destination for the first time. For a hassle-free and memorable journey to Oman, here are some important things to know:
Considering its dry subtropical climate, Oman records high temperatures all year round. However, the winter months are preferably pleasant for tourists to experience pristine nature and exciting activities. Hence, October to March offers the best view of the "Pearl of Arabia", as the temperature remains between 17 to 35 degrees Celsius.
Moreover, you can witness the turtles at Ras Al Jinz at this time of the year. However, you must check for the Muslim holidays, like Ramadan and Eid, before planning the trip to avoid crowds during these festivities.
You can try out the following things to make your Oman trip memorable:
Get a private camel ride at the Wahiba Sands
Visit Sur and discover the history of boat making
Watch the turtles in the Ras Al Jinz
Snorkel at Damaniyat Islands
Explore the history of Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque
Hike at Wadi Ghul, a.k.a Oman's Grand Canyon
Oman is home to several breathtaking spots. Don't miss visiting the following locations for a grand Oman trip:
Ancient aflaj oases irrigation system and terraced orchards in Jebel Akhdar
Royal Palace Qasr al-Alam in Muscat
Land of Frankincense in Salalah
Mud village of Misfat Al Abreyeen
Forts of Nizwa
Wadi Dayqah Dam in Quriyat
Getting a visa for Oman is the top priority before planning a trip to this country. It usually takes 7-10 working days to complete the entire process from the date of application submission.
Here are the few steps that you need to follow while applying for an Oman visa:
You need to fill out the Oman tourist visa application form after visiting the official visa application website.
Fill out all the necessary fields accurately, as any mismatch can lead to the rejection of your application.
Continue with the payment procedure, and remember that the amount is non-refundable.
Stay present at the Visa Application Centre during the submission of the Visa Application for biometric submission.
Don't forget to carry all the required documents along with the printout of the application form.
Must-have documents for acquiring an Oman visa from India are as follows:
Passport – Your passport should have at least three blank pages and 180 days or more validity while applying for an Oman visa.
Bank Statement – Your bank statement proves you have enough funds to complete the travel and sustain yourself adequately during the trip. You will need to submit at least the last three months' statements.
Credit/Debit Cards – You should have a credit or debit card to pay the Oman visa fees
Photographs – Two passport-sized photos less than six months old with a white background and 35mm x 45mm size are also required.
A valid visa is the first thing the authorities will check when you land in Oman. Besides, you need to meet the recent COVID-19 entry requirements.
Do remember that only fully vaccinated travellers are eligible to enter Oman with a vaccination certificate. You should also have travel medical insurance to travel to Oman from India.
However, both these requirements have been relaxed since May 2022.
The following precautions are necessary for a safe and secure journey to Oman:
Keep your passport and the necessary documents while travelling.
Be aware of the local laws and customs, and other safety protocols.
Avoid isolated camping to stay protected from burglary or pickpocketing.
As the neighbouring country is experiencing an armed conflict, avoid travelling to border areas or large public gatherings.
Stay updated with the Indian Embassy's contact details and address.
Inspect the hotel rooms and security while checking in
Leave copies of your documents and details of your tour to a trusted mate in India.
Always opt for a travel insurance policy before visiting a foreign country.
Travel insurance can safeguard you financially in case of unexpected expenses like medical treatment, theft, flight delays, etc. Hence, travel insurance can be a saviour while you are travelling abroad.
