Across five action-packed days, delegates will explore Oman’s meetings and events potential through a blend of site visits and unforgettable experiences.

Highlights include:

• A luxury stay at The Chedi Muscat, with dolphin watching and snorkelling
• Canyoning adventures at Wadi Tiwi
• Dune bashing and a camel ride to Magic Camps, capped off with sunset cocktails in the desert
• Exploring the ancient fort city of Nizwa
• An overnight escape to Alila Jabal Akhdar, a mountain-top luxury resort
• A guided tour of the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque and Muscat’s vibrant souks

The itinerary is designed to show planners Oman’s extraordinary contrasts; from coastline to desert to dramatic mountains, alongside its rich heritage and high-end hospitality.

“Oman is a destination that really has it all for event organisers, from world-class venues and luxury resorts to stunning natural landscapes and authentic cultural experiences,” said Paul Harvey, editor of M&IT. “This trip is a unique opportunity for planners to see first-hand what Oman can offer their clients, and to gain inspiration for creating unforgettable meetings and incentive programmes.
