Greatest mountain passes I’ve ever seen. Food 10/10, people 10/10, Sea incredible… Salalah is worth any effort required.
Not that what I seen in Al Jahar wasn’t incredible
Agreed - it was about my tenth visit to the country, and I'm blown away by the hospitality and scenery every time. Dhofar/Salalah the only region I'm yet to explore. Actually got to experience the kindness of the Omanis on this trip first hand. I set off at a silly time of day and was a little concerned I would run out of water. Luckily, as it was a Friday afternoon, there were lots of locals huddled under trees on the mountain sharing coffee and lunch. One group of young guys called me over for a chat as I was just starting the final ascent and insisted I sat down and filled up with cold water, dates and halwa. They asked how long it would be before I came back down, and said they would have lunch ready for when I did! Think it could be a great country to do a tour for a couple of weeks.
Ad Dakhiliyah/Al Hajar mountains region.
Really wanted to go to Salalah for the end of Khareef, but couldn’t make it work unfortunately. Hopefully next year, it looks incredible!
