Here’s some important information about Oman:

FLIGHTS TO OMAN:
You can get multiple direct flight options from Indian cities to Muscat and they are as cheap as Ra 19,000 return per person. The duration is just 2.5 hrs from Mumbai

VISA FOR OMAN:
Oman needs just an E-Visa for Indian passport holders. A 10-day E-visa costs Rs 3000 and takes 3 working days to arrive

DATE TRAVELLED:
I travelled in June which is peak summer. A good time would be From End of July to Feb

GETTING AROUND OMAN:
I did this trip by myself but you can always hire a local guide who can get you around some hidden spots in Oman because trust me there are so many! You'll find a guide on Instagram, if you search Oman guide. Or you can just stick to my itinerary and follow the same route.

DRIVING IN OMAN:
The roads in Oman are some of the finest you will find and this was a 10-day road trip that I did. Renting a car is the most expensive but also the best option possible because public transport isn't so efficient plus can cost you a lot more.
In Muscat alone you'll find every second shop to be a car rental. I got mine from Car2Go Rental in Ghala area and it cost me around Rs 36,000 (I got it for 30 days not 10 since I needed extra kms) Indian Driving license works.
We drove a total of 4000 kms in 10 days.

FOOD IN OMAN:
Food is at the heart of Oman. As an Indian specially, you'll find tons of Indian restaurants and only-veg restaurants too. There's also so many amazing local options available. A suggestion would be to eat a local shawarma or roll at small shops that read "burgers and shakes" - they serve the cheapest and BEST shawarmas!!

DRONE POLICY IN OMAN:
Drones are not allowed in Oman officially. Incase your luggage is scanned at the exit at Muscat airport, they will hold your drone at the airport and keep it safe and you can re-claim it upon your departure from Muscat airport. Omani locals do fly drones in Oman.
