On behalf of my
wife and myself
I would like to
extend a sincere
thank you to you
and your team at
Oman World
Tourism for a
wonderful
holiday. It was
truly a dream
come true for
us. We had read
a lot about Oman
prior to our
visit, but what
we had
experienced
during our
entire stay, far
surpassed all
our
expectations.
The sheer
diversity of
Oman's beauty is
mind boggling.
From Khasab to
Muscat, Nizwa,
Wahiba Sands and
Ras Al Hadd, the
landscape each
day was
breathtaking and
completely
different. One
day we found
ourselves in the
mountains, the
next day in the
desert and the
day after by the
sea. Oman is not
only blessed
with so many
natural wonders
but its amazing
people, culture
and history made
this a complete
experience for
us.
Our trip was
made even more
special because
of OWT's
professionalism
and personal
service. You
went out of your
way to make Oman
very special for
us and you
succeeded. We
always felt
comfortable
knowing that we
were in very
good hands.
Saeed's
experience and
knowledge of
Oman made our 3
days spent with
him even more
fulfilling. His
insights into
the history and
culture of Oman
were excellent.
We saw more than
we could have
imagined in that
short time.
Saeed was more
than our guide -
he became our
friend. Thank
you Saeed!
Similarly our
guide Ali in
Khasab was
excellent as
well.
We also
appreciated
Bruce's time
spent with us on
our arrival in
Muscat. He
showed us around
the city and the
souk. This was
very kind and
more than we
expected. And
Issa thank you
for being so
flexible and
accommodating
and making
changes at the
last minute so
that we feel
more comfortable
This
individual service
and attention to
detail, sets OWT
apart from the
rest. You took
away the stress
and worry, so
that we could
relax and enjoy
you wonderful
country. You
have done Oman
proud.
My wife and I
are very sad to
have left Oman.
But we hope to
come back very
soon and make
Oman our annual
holiday
destination.
Thank you to
Issa, Bruce and
Saeed for our
wonderful stay
in Oman.
Mahomed, Fathima
Baccus.

Thank you very
much for
everything. I
really enjoyed
my visit to Oman
for the
following
reasons:
1. You made it
very easy for me
to reach my
holiday
objectives and
to do the things
I really wanted
to do.
2. Oman is a
clean, safe,
simple and
intact country
to visit.
3. The Omani
people are
friendly and
make you feel
welcome.
4. It is a very
scenic country
with contrasts
from mountains,
to ocean to
desert, each to
be enjoyed
separately.
5. Although the
Rial/Rand
exchange rate is
unfavourable it
is not too
expensive to
make it possible
and to really
have a good
time.
6. I think it is
worth the name
“Pearl of the
Arabian
Continent”
7. The weather
was
good…..perhaps
even too cool
for me!
8. Enough time
to relax and
rest due to the
lifestyle and
pace.
9. That I could
travel on camel
back through the
Wahiba Sands
with a Bedouin
all on my own……a
dream came true!
10. The bull
fight was good
and any time
worth the
effort.
11. I enjoyed
Ali’s company
and all the
information I
could gather
from him.
12. To have had
the use of a
car……although I
did not use it a
lot it was very
convenient to
have available.
13. Your
“help-line”!!
Keep contact and
thank you very,
very much again
for your very
kind hospitality
and friendship
which I really
appreciated more
than you can
think. You
expressed your
interest and
passion for your
clients by
constructively
focusing on
their needs and
by addressing
someone’s (like
me) specific
needs.
Go well and best
wishes to all.
Will you also
specifically
convey my
sincere thanks
to Issa? I am
sorry I did not
meet him in
person….perhaps
next time.
Kind regards.

I must take this
opportunity to
express my
gratitude toward
"Bruce” The
Barnacle
“Fennessy” and
his Company,”
Oman World
Tourism.
Selecting, and
then organizing
a Fishing
Holiday through
the
aforementioned,
proved to be,
not only easy
and cost
effective, but
will remain as
one of the
better Holiday
decisions I have
taken.
Our complete
itinerary was
taken care of by
Oman World
Tourism - which
included but was
not limited to,
Oman entry
Visas, Hotels,
Championship
enrollment, to
transfers
throughout our
short, but
extremely
grueling
schedule.
We had door to
door, VIP
service, from
the Airport to a
personalized
daily collection
service at
04:30am!!
We were greeted
every day, from
the return boat
journey, with a
smile and a
congratulatory
comment.
That
people, is
dedication from
Bruce the “Blow
Fish,” and goes
beyond the call
of any normal
Customer Service
/ Duty I have
ever
experienced.
Bruce - Thank
you, from Terry
and I.
I wish you, and
the staff behind
the scenes, all
the best in the
future.
You and your
team, most
certainly have
what it takes to
earn my repeat
business.
Consider 2008's
Competition as a
confirmed
booking.
Warm Regards

FAQ’s
Oman
OWT
General
Oman
Oman
is a very safe
country to travel
to. The people are
very friendly and
are always willing
to help. There is
virtually no crime
in Oman, a statistic
which Omanis are
very proud of.
TOP
The
most frequented time
is from around
September through
April, which is the
winter. The average
temperature during
this time is around
25C during the day
and 20C at night.
However hotel rooms
are very hard to
come by during this
period so one needs
to book early to
ensure your
reservation.
TOP
Oman
is a Muslim country
which means that
alcohol cannot be
bought over the
counter in stores
and the restaurants
do not offer alcohol
when eating out.
However alcohol can
be purchased at
various pubs and
bars based in the
hotels as well as
various private
clubs. It is not
permitted to drink
alcohol in public
areas.
TOP
Costumes can be worn
at your hotel as
well as on private
beaches near the
hotel but it is
asked that when you
are in a public
place that you
respect the local
custom and cover up.
TOP
Camping is available
almost anywhere in
Oman. One should not
camp on someone’s
property unless they
offer their land.
However you are able
to camp on many of
the beaches along
the coastline as
well as on the
mountains.
TOP
Although the
exchange rate of the
Rial is very strong
the average cost of
living in Oman is
very low compared to
other countries in
the world. Everyday
necessities are very
affordable and can
be bought throughout
the country.
TOP
Oman’s roads are
generally very good.
There are still some
places that are only
accessible by 4x4
but most of the
major cities are
connected by tarred
roads.
TOP
There
are many things to
do in both Muscat
and the rest of
Oman. Have a browse
through our site to
find a few gems.
Things like horse
riding and quad
biking can be
organised by OWT. We
also recommend
trying to catch a
bull fight while you
are here. No bulls
are killed in the
fights and they
actually involve 2
bulls pushing one
another until one of
the bulls gives up.
After the fight they
are taken to the
ocean to cool down.
