Best driving routes

The Hajar Mountains The Hajars are a 700km (430 mile) long mountain range that crosses Northern Oman from southwest to northeast, making it one of the most remote places in the Arabian Peninsula. The region is rich in ancient monuments, including a Neolithic beehive, but its main draw is the breathtaking nature. While there are decent roadways that cross the highlands, a 4WD vehicle is required to explore most off-road areas of the mountain range. Make sure you have an up-to-date map as well.

Sands of Wahiba. The Wahiba, a vast desert area in the country's center, is the Arabian Peninsula that most outsiders see when they think of the region. The infinite dunes are best viewed as part of a tour; venturing into the desert alone increases your chances of becoming stranded or lost. You can, however, drive to one of the surrounding towns or villages where the excursions depart. Seeing the sunset or dawn in the desert is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Masirah Island is a small island off the coast of Yemen. Masirah, a desert island off the coast of Central Oman, is another another location unlike any other in the country. The region is well-known for its diving options, which include visiting local shipwrecks, as well as kitesurfing and other water activities. The island was closed to travelers until recently, so it retains an off-the-beaten-path vibe. Masirah is accessible by ferry from the mainland town of Shannah. Most ferry companies allow vehicles onboard, but you should check with your rental car company ahead of time to see whether they allow it.
