Oman on Two Wheels

When you picture a road trip, it’s likely your mind first goes to the highlands of Scotland or those never-ending desert roads in the US. But for something different, embark on a unique road trip through the rocky outcrops and desert sands of Oman. Rather than being encased in a vehicle, swap four wheels for two as you commandeer Harley-Davidsons specially flown in to accompany you along your trip, as well as access to both road and gravel bikes.

Wahiba Sands and Wadi Bani Khalid

For intrepid explorers seeking a deeper immersion in this striking terrain, embark on a journey to the desert oasis of Wadi Bani Khalid. Here, a five-hour hike followed by a revitalizing swim awaits. Nestled in the heart of Wahiba Sands, this is where you’ll spend the night in your private desert camp. The sleeping tents are equipped with proper mattresses, crisp cotton linens, feather pillows, and traditional furnishings, creating Northern Oman’s ultimate desert camp experience that offers a level of comfort rare in desert settings. The meticulous attention to detail and furnishings elevate this to a top-tier glamping experience rather than mere camping.

After leaving your camp behind, reunite with fellow travelers in Wadi Tiwi for lunch before making your way to Muscat, arriving just in time to witness the enchanting sunset.
