People

We ensure our driver/guides take guests off the beaten track locations where tourism helps the local communities there by supporting local trade and livelihoods,

We include a visit to the Ibra womens market, this is open once a week and attracts women-only buyers and sellers from all over the region, selling a variety of handicrafts such as baskets, woven cushions and camel bags. Men are not welcome, and photographs are prohibited here in the only souq in the country dedicated to female shoppers.
On this tour you will visits several local communities in the Wahiba Sands where you can see the traditional way of life and purchase handicrafts made by the locals. Any money from the sale of the handicrafts helps the local Bedouins to support their families. Local Bedouin guides are hired to explain their way of life to clients on parts of this tour. This enables them to earn a regular living from the visiting tourists.
We provide a local Omani guide for the duration of your time out on your 4WD adventure, They will share their local knowledge of their history, culture, customs and lifestyle. Often the guides have strong links with the local Bedouin people, with whom they interact on a regular basis or have associations with the local tribes.
