Yes! According to the World Economic Forum's most recent Travel and Tourism Report, Oman is the 9th safest country to live in the world and locals, expats and travellers can all enjoy the countries legendary hospitality. The crime rates are so low many locals don’t even lock their homes when they leave for work.

For Omanis, wadis are their life-force - deep canyons that criss-cross the mountains and deserts, with turquoise waters that flow over waterfalls and into crystal clear pools that demand you dive in and cool off. They're also a haven for wildlife and flowers and a trip to one for a hike, swim, climb, off-road drive or a picnic is always a highlight of any visit to Oman. On this trip, you'll visit some of your host's favourite wadi's that few tourists ever see.

Your host's company is Omani based with international safety and quality standards and the flagship company when it comes to adventure and safety in Oman. The team is a mix of UK/Irish and Omani instructors, all of whom have been extensively trained in both the UK and Dubai, hold professional qualifications and combined have more than 25 years of adventure experience.

in short, yes, however, this group trip allows you to reduce the costs significantly. The main reason why Oman is an expensive destination is that the country’s currency, the Omani Rial, is very strong, however, compared to Dubai, Oman offers greater value for money. Accommodation and transport are the two biggest parts of your stay in Oman and a basic, decent quality hotel starts at around OMR 30 per night. It is, however, absolutely worth it, as you'll have a chance to experience the unique culture and hospitality the country is famous for first-hand.
