Thanks for sharing! We are also considering to visit muscat on our 8h transit. We did you get your host? Do you have any recommendations how to travel during the day? Found some guided tours online (4h or 8h privat driver) but they seems to be disproportionately expensive…
Hi, the best way to get around is definitely by private car, either self-drive or with a driver. Traveling by public bus is possible but will probably take a long time. I usually find my hosts on Couchsurfing, Airbnb and Facebook groups for solo female travelers. I'm also a freelance tour guide at home, so I'm lucky enough to meet people from all over the world who would offer to show me around or host me in their home countries 😁 Anyway, hope you'll find someone. All the best for your trip!
Hi, the visa requirement is different for different nationalities, as some countries are exempted. You can check here to see if you need to have a transit visa to enter Oman: www.oman-visa.online/en/faq/
According to this website, you do need a transit visa. www.tataaig.com/travel-insurance/oman-transit-visa-for-indians However, to be sure, please check with the embassy.
Hi, Norman. If you're not leaving the transit area in the airport, you won't need any transit visa. If you're leaving, however, you can apply for a transit visa online. Do note that there are different visa requirements for different nationalities. You may check their official website for more details: evisa.rop.gov.om/
