STORY TIMELINE

AREAS OF OPERATION

WHAT DO WE DO?

The Panorama Travel mission is extracted from the company’s vision. We see it as our duty to build bridges across internal and external borders to understand people, their culture, and their land. This can only be achieved together with you (our partners).

It is our wish that our guests appreciate the ever-changing cultural diversity and natural beauty. These are valuable assets worth preserving for all humans and their descendants.

The high-quality trips we offer create opportunities for a personal exchange of ideas and information and, therefore, public awareness. This is why we believe that responsible, sustainable tourism makes a positive, long-term contribution and makes a better global understanding.

TRAVEL RESPONSIBLY AND SUSTAINABLE TOURISM 

Tourism puts enormous pressure on the environment and local life, but it can also positively impact. Oman greatly conserves the superb habitats and geological features that mark our landscapes as unique.  As part of our commitment to responsible, sustainable tourism, we support ESO‘s efforts and give the chance to give back to Oman and its environment.

Sustainable tourism is a proven tool for developing and benefiting communities. Your choice to travel with us enables us to continue our initiative to train the talented tourism students of SQU Uni. and OTC. You also continue supporting us in employing locals and promoting regular visits to local craftsmen and craftswomen.

→  TEAM OF EXPERTS

From the office staff who will deal with your inquiry to our experienced local guides who will give you an interesting background on local politics, the economic situation, or perhaps what the country is doing in the field of renewable energy and diverse economy.

The Panorama Travel team will always be there – to make sure you get to know the real country as it is. They explain Oman’s great history enlivened by local lore, show some of its thrilling traditions, and some of its peaceful identity. Traveling with us is always full of surprises, wonderful moments, and unforgettable experiences.

→ EQUIPMENT

Throughout almost two decades of working in the Oman tourism industry, we have invested heavily in the best transportation, guiding systems, and outdoor, camping, and recovery equipment available.

For two decades, we have been delighted to provide unique experiences for individuals, couples, families, and groups. We operate study trips, educational, leisure, adventure, MICE, self-drive, and cruise segments.

Our transportation relied on various fleets of vehicles, including the modern ship of the desert, the Toyota Land Cruiser, and the latest Ford Expeditions. We use varied buses according to the group size, including luxury 45-seater coaches. We own a fleet of trailers, including off-road trailers professionally designed to fit our customized trips.

We believe that Oman’s tourism is about the guest experience. The Panorama Travel team travels through the entire country, renewing their direct knowledge of the country and its hotels. From arrival to departure, each guest stays in the most appropriate accommodations and views Oman as their home away from home. We deal with most hotels in Oman and offer a private camping experience, from luxurious safari-style to simpler options.

For visitors on a stopover or a ship’s cruise, Panorama Travel provides shore excursions to Multi-day Trips.

Though many travel websites use stock photos, we have chosen to use only images taken by our team from events and tours we operate.
