Overview

One Thousand and One Night Overnight, a two-day PRIVATE guided adventure -on your request- to the rolling dunes of  Al Sharqiyah Sands. You will experience an Arabian night of the 1000 stories of Arabia, discover the desert life, and enjoy starry skies around the campfire surrounded by the golden dunes.

Magical Oman!

Our second visit to wonderful Oman and it was unforgettable. The country is Arabian magic, very authentic, clean, very safe and people are so friendly and courteous. Our tour included Muscat, Sur, overnight in Wahibi Sands desert, Nizwa en various Wadi’s , among Wadi Bani Khalid, and Salalah in the south. I’m a great fan of all the restored fortresses and castles from the Portugese days. Very special thanks to Panorama Tours who made this possible with their perfect guides and drivers. Hope to see you all again!

Our visit to Oman was certainly a highlight of our travels

“Dear Reem, with all good wishes for a Happy and Healthy2016. Reem I can’t thank you enough for all your hard work on our behalf. Our visit to Oman was certainly a highlight of our travels and we loved every moment that we spent in your wonderful country. Khalid could not have taken better care of us, he was very considerate and anticipated our every need – moreover he was great fun to be with. It was more than kind of you to have bought a new wheelchair for my husband. He would not really have managed without it and so he too had a wonderful time and felt well. Khalid was especially patient with his requests for photo opportunities! Again our sincere thanks and if we are lucky enough to return I will be in touch with you. With all good wishes. Patricia”
