Car Hire Oman
In the Arabic world, the most inspiring story of modernization while keeping the ancient roots is the one of Oman. This story begins in the 1970s when an extensive and sustained effort to bring the country into the ranks of the 20th century Western world. The Sultanate of Oman sits at the convergence of two continents, Africa and Asia, while its surroundings, the Saudi Arabia, the Arab Emirates, Yemen and a large shoreline with access to the Persian Gulf, give it a very special importance in the region.
Once you arrived at either the Muscat Seeb Airport or the Salalah Airport, you’ll have access to the same variety of transportation options you can get in any major airport in US or Western Europe. However, you will definitely miss all the fun unless you go for a car hire. The country is rich in points of interest both of wildlife and manmade nature. The first thing you can do is take a splendid ride along the 3000km long shoreline, which is filled with affordable and luxury resorts and ever sunny beaches, where you can spend the night, get a nice tan and try out the local dishes. You can also leave the car in the hotel’s parking lot and go for one of the multitude of seaside-related activities (small cruises, marine expeditions, scuba diving, surfing and many others).
