No words. I suspect it’s a place that only the feelings it elicits begins to describe it. Wow.
I have to agree with your travel partner 😃. Sorry Lea, coffee, coffee, and more coffee 😍
You guys are all traitors! You should be on my side! 😂😂😂
✨Oman made roads for tourist .. ride and enjoy 👍
اهلا بكم في سلطنة عمان 🇴🇲 ❤
Welcome to the Sultanate of Oman 🇴🇲 ❤
Hey Lea. Can’t argue with your descriptions of the scenery on the coast road. Spectacular variations of colour in the rock faces . They must make it hard to concentrate on the winding road. I’d be stopping every 5 min for a photo op. I had no idea Oman had this much to offer the sightseeing traveller. Very friendly people too. Always a bonus. Thanks and ride safe. Peace, Dan. ✌️🏍🇨🇦
I had to FORCE myself to not stop anymore so often. Already the day before we stopped so many times, that’s why we barely didn’t make any kilometers. 😂 it’s a pain in the ass when everything is so beautiful that you can’t even focus on riding the curvy roads 😂 (the only problems of a traveler in Oman).
One of my all enduring memories of my early childhood living in the East African city of Dar es Salaam(haven of peace) were the massive majestic Omani sailing Dhows gliding into the harbour bearing all sorts of Middle East goods. The Omani’s sailing abilities are legendary and well known. It was one of the high lights of visiting my fathers office situated on the edge of the harbour, how he managed to kept his eyes on the Ordinance Survey maps he was drawing I don’t know.
Lea what a beautiful world we all live in, if only we could all get on with one another with no boundaries or territories to fight over. But alas we silly humans don't think like that, shame. And as you so rightly mentioned you had ran out of superlatives to describe the scenery unfolding before your eyes, truly stunning. But just think Lea when you are to old to tour the world on your motorcycle what memories you will have created. Thank you for letting us be part of your stupendous journey.
Oh noooo, I don’t want to think about the time when I will be too old to travel! I hope when I am really old I will just fall off the bike and finally died from the beauty overdose like I said in the video (but please not before getting 100 😂)
Very well said Stephen. Doubt anyone else would have said it any better than you did.
@@Got2Go Lea, I did this stretch in 2018 during Kharif (Monsoon season) with few of my friends but in the opposite direction. Stunning, fascinating, captivating, mesmerising, fabulous, breath-taking etc.; I do not know the right superlative to describe. (Not as eloquent as you are). We wated to do it all over again.
Seeing and hearing it through your eyes and most eloquent commentary rekindles the urge to do the trip again soon.
Thank you for your video.
Well your blog is very nice. I am very happy to see your video
Thank you!
Welcome Lea 👍👋👍👋👍👋
Thanks
Thank you yet another spectacular video. Wish you safe riding Merryl.
Thank you so much!
as usual Lea, stunning photography
Thank you so much!
Stunning scenery and beautifully captured by your cameras, thank you.
Thanks Lea I needed some good energy today. I must agree with you that is some very amazing views.
Thank you, awesome that this made your day a tiny small bit better!
Lea, you have given Hearts to Every one, you,re The Queen of Hearts
hi leah:
It is nice to see my dear town, and you have referred to it with a beautiful description in your wonderful report.
Sorry, we weren't aware of your coming until we did our duty of hospitality to you..
هذي عمان بجمال طبيعتها وبساطة شعبها ،
شكرأ لك على التغطية الرائعة ،
وشكراً لك على ترجمة كلامك إلي اللغة العربية .
all of the above comments have taken the Words from my mouth, so what can I say more, oh, I have found a Word not spoken yet, MARVELOUS RIDE, Thanks taking us on this magical Tour,
I myslef am an Omani have been to the places you went to on this video once, but never have experinced the scenery as it was shown here, truly amazing videography and editing, next time you should visit salalah in the (Khareef) season, we call it the "Switzerland of the gulf" 😂
Hi Lea. Greetings from Oz. Yes, sightseeing over coffee ! I share your admiration for the magic Omani scenery.
Thank you for taking us along.
There is a life before coffee 😂😂😂
Hello Lea, Thank you for just being there, and doing what you keep doing. What a joy you are!. I'd discovered your channel about 2 yrs back, thinking I'll watch 'when I'm free' - like today . Its wet, windy and cold here in Wellington, New Zealand. But watching your video has made me feel warm and toasty again. I'm getting ready for a ride. Lots of things to do. Have to catch up with your previous videos! Have fun, you. Ride safe. Deepak
We had the same stunning impressions, unbelievable and I will do it again. I miss a stop at As Shuwaymiya as well as the drive into the Wadi. Did‘nt you know about the Sugar Dunes near Al Khaluf? Unbelievable beautiful experience
Miles of road devoid of hundreds of folk in cars.......utter bliss!😀
It really is 😍😍😍
Blessings for your channel. Appreciation for your efforts to capture such and amazing views 💖💖💖💖
Love from Pakistan 🇵🇰
One of the underrated country in the Middle East
Wie immer danke fürs mitnehmen. Grossartig was eine Landschaft. Bin ja jetzt wieder auf Stand :-))
Good
Thank you
I am happy to see that a Bangladeshi resident is making breakfast for an international tourist.
"Died from a beauty overdose " seems like a distinct possibility!
I am glad that you had a great ride and I agree with your description of the landscape!
On holiday..but making time for this Thursday evening special
Super as expected
Stay safe
Awww how nice is that! I hope you enjoy your own holiday!
Stunning, spectacular and beautiful 😍
Thank you. It really was. 😍
Those steep mountains at the coast look like ancient reefs, similar to the Dolomites. Probably from the Tethys ocean; about 250-65 million years ago.
It used to be coffee coffee for me but I changed to tea.
The views are breathtakingly beautiful. I don’t see any rubbish next to the roads and in the villages which positively surprises me.
Unfortunately, certain non-Omanis from neighboring Arab countries traveling to the Dhofar region for the annual Monsoon festival leave lots of trash at Wadis and other scenic tourist spots. Witnessing this on several visits to Oman was quite disgusting and depressing.
The remote parts of the coast really didn’t have that much rubbish - but unfortunately there is as well rubbish that just comes from the ocean. So if you see rubbish in the more populated areas like Aaron wrote it is often tourists or visitor - or the rubbish is coming straight out of the ocean becsue our oceans unfortunately are a sea of plastic. 😔
🇴🇲❤️😍
🙏🏻
Stunning! Love your videos more every time I watch.
Thanks Lea for showing us this country. It feels like you found a hidden treasure. We are so curious what you have more in store of Oman 🤩 all the best for you
Absolute stunning coastline Lea, I can imagine that you died by beauty overload. But thank God today is ascension day in The Netherlands, so you will survive!
In Germany too! What a good day for a beauty overdose 😂 guess I will have to be more careful with it in the future or wait another year. 😂
That is indeed a beautiful coast road and great you had it to yourselves. When I find my self in a cafe/Bar at a beautiful spot I am so content l often think I could stay here forever , but eventually the road beckons.
So super duper video 😍 beautiful place
Thank you!
Wow! What an adventure! Thanks for taking us along for the ride! 😍😍
Thanks for virtually joining! 😍
Watching this; anything I want to do in life is Travel on Bike. 💥
I hope you can experience your own adventures then soon!
@@Got2Go thank you very much. I am waiting for that moment 🤞
Stunning coastal routes, the Oman government has put in a lot of effort to build the best asphalt roads, but alas, sad to say there was no effort to plant more trees to green up the barren lands...
With the overtime I work, I didn’t get to watch this right away. I have to say that it was well worth the wait. Once again stunningly beautiful ride on the coast. Thanks as always for taking us along.
Surely it can be one of the most beautiful coastline!!!❤❤❤
Lea, I keep using the same adjectives and adverbs as always. What a stunning episode (they are so well done) you presented again on your travels. I always find beauty everywhere. There is always something. I have a 27" monitor and the travel is so wonderful. It is "almost" like being there. Your narration of your travel really sets you apart from other UA-camrs that I have seen. Now I have to wait a whole week for the next one. Thank you for letting me ride along. One question, has there ever been a meal that was unpleasant and you couldn't eat?
Every day I enter your channel waiting for a new video about Oman
That’s great! Hope you liked this one!
How relaxing, im totally chilled out watching this, and yes i have to agree it really stunning and beautiful
Thanks for sharing cool video with pretty natures my friend :)
Thank you so much
Another fantastic video! It was a pleasure watching your travels in Oman. I'm glad you all had a great time there! Take care. 🙂
So Beautiful!!
Thank you
its absolutely stunning,. waiting for your next vlog
Lea, I'm so glad you went to Oman and created this wonderful series. I've been to Oman. On business and sadly only for 7 days mostly in Muscat with only about a day to sightsee but that brief time did include a ride south of the city and into one of the little fishing villages on the coast. One of the favorite images I have in my mind is of an Omani woman in that village walking in her stony yard surrounded by her goats. She had the most contented smile I may have ever seen. I really wanted to capture her image on my camera but I couldn't do it ... it just felt too intrusive. I've also been to Qatar, Abu Dhabi and Dubai. Oman is my favorite. You're so right about the people being so friendly and the pace is infinitely more relaxed than the Emirates. The seafood is great. If I am asked what Oman looks like I tell them to imagine Arizona's desert mountains right next to an ocean. I'd go back to Oman in a heartbeat. Take care, all the best to you and Travel Partner.
Beautiful video as always, wonderful landscapes,, Oman it’s amazing to see this , thank you for sharing video 👌😍
Thank you so much for watching!
You guys are living the dream ! I love motorcycle touring. One day I will cross the ocean to Europe.
I don't do this often. Doble thumbs up!
Thank you so much! Makes me double happy! 🤗
جميله عمان أرضا وشعبا اللهم احفظها وزد وبارك في خيراتها.
Your videos connect your viewers (at least me) directly to Oman's awesomeness, exceptionally good work and a huge treat, keep it up and thanks a lot 🙏🌟🔥🙋🍀☺️!!
That makes me super happy - if only 10 percent of its beauty can be transported with the videos, that’s already a lot. I don’t want you guys to die from a beauty overdose either! 😂
Great video. Thanks for showing a part of the world that I knew was there, but had no idea how starkly beautiful it is.
Stunning coastal road!
It is 😍😍😍
Nice! Was in the Emirates in 2005, in Oman to but just a daytrip there driving around.
I also thought it was very quiet and almost empty streets many places.
Thank you for bringing back some memories!
Looks like a really Amazing Place!
That Travel Partner is a really Mysterious Dude. If You ever did a reveal I bet it would get a tone of views. Love the Videos!
Superb best on UA-cam by far. Keep up the good work. Kind regards from uk.
Thank you so much!
Thanks for another great episode. Your videos are always so enjoyable they seem to fly by.
Awesome ride,another great footage once again,than you so much Lea.
Oman leaves a permanent impression on your mind .It is breathtaking !Thank you for making my day so enjoyable.
Absolutely fabulous!! We've been following your Oman adventure on the telly but had not got round to giving you a thumbs up on our phones.
Thank you for taking us all with you. You are so right, it really does seems like this is the most amazing coastal ride in the world! 🇴🇲
So glad you did not die of a beauty overdose 😆
Look forward to every trip, thanks Lea.
I will try to avoid to die from a beauty overdose in the future too so I can take you guys along the ride further. Thanks for watching and heading here for giving the thumbs up! 😍
4:08 .... Wao 👌 again
leave grumpy home , that is great views but I like the California hwy 1 with its trees and bushes and your closer to the water and its cooler .
Nooo, you are not closer to the water, you have to watch the last episode, you are nowhere as close to the water on highway 1 as on the road in the last one. BUT: I love the Californian too, its absolutely awesome!
Ridiculamente hermoso !!!!
Wow great video thank you. Very well done. Thanks again cheers to ya.
Thank
You for watching!!!
Langit biru dan Bintang, laut, pantai, hutan pegunungan, Padang pasir. Keindahan alam yang sempurna.
heart touching v log with the best surroundings
Thank you!
@@Got2Go always welcome
Stunning country…such diverse scenery especially in the south during monsoon. My favourite is the musandam peninsular in the north on the straits of Hormuz, breathtaking roads with huge mountains falling away to crystal blue sea…wonderful place.
What a great episode! The coastal highway is amazing and beautiful. I love how open and free the road is, unlike the PCH in Cali where it's crowded and tons of traffic. The food looks amazing and now I'm hungry, lol. Looking forward to the next episode. Ride Safe!
I am happy that you like my choice of the best restaurants along Omans coast. 😂😍
OMG… what an awesome experience for you, absolutely breath taking, and helpful people. Any women in this towns besides you?
Thank you for taking us on this awesome trip with you 💕
Of course, but Omanis in general don’t “hang” a lot on the roads, all workers and restaurant owners you saw so far were mostly Bangladeshi/Pakistani (the omani guy that is knotting his headscarf for us for example just stopped for us and came out of his car, he was not just “hanging around” by coincidence). And because it is a very Muslim country women mostly as well don’t want you to take their pictures and videos (I always ask before I do so), so I can only show you what I get the permission to film. But even though women like all Omanis don’t “hang around” on the roads they are allowed to do everything they want. University for example is for both genders and mixed and it’s not a Muslim country that has a super strict separation.
@@Got2Go thanks for the info.. it’s just that I hadn’t seen any women, but as you say you have respect their privacy, and that’s a good thing. Oh that Omani guy was so proud and awesome.. really lovely respectful people. I suppose living in the US as I do, there isn’t a spot without people ..Safe travels and thanks again for the breathtaking scenery and for filling me in on Omani culture.. much appreciated💕
Spectacular coastal road, I will use it for sure next time on my way to Salalah, Thank you Lea❤️, your videos are awesome
Very 😎 cool 😎
💃🏻
❤Congratulations, the beautiful beach so far you ride... The power of beautiful rider... When you come and try riding in Indonesia🇮🇩...
Congratulations for your national holiday on 18th November Oman from your friends in Germany
There is no words to describe that ride, roads views, ocean.👍 Thans for sharing.😊
It is indeed, the most beautiful I have ever seen ,absolutely stunning 😍! 🙏💝
welcome to oman 🇴🇲
Thank
You!
The UK recognized Oman's geographical importance as a trading hub that secured their trading lanes in the Persian Gulf and Indian Ocean and protected their empire in the Indian sub-continent. Historically, Muscat was the principal trading port of the Persian Gulf region.
You have to say that it is the Arabian Gulf, not the Persian Gulf
awesome trip, thank you very much.
I hope your next trip will be Morocco.
I am not sure about that, but I hope to visit Morocco again at one point for sure!
مساء الخير
Thank you
Very, very cool 😎
Hola Lea. Las imágenes son exelentes. Gracias por viajar para nosotros por esos hermosos lugares. Abrazo Argentino.
Indeed, extra ordinary views. Thanks for showing Lea and travelpartner.
Very very good video
nice scenery
Stunning scenery, thank you for taking us along on your trip.
Love from india
It is gorgeous there ❤️ You are so fortunate to be able to be there in that beauty.
Unreal. I've said it before but I just can't believe how stunningly gorgeous this area is. Thanks for taking us along with such beautiful filmed footage. This is definitely on my goal list so it's wonderful to see through your eyes.
One of more beautiful videos that I ever seen.
I really like the way you edit videos. Style looks really professional. These are the finest travel videos. Thanks a lot 👍🏻
I have driven on this highway & was captivated by its beauty. You have captured all the moments but more beautifully
I was fortunate to have traveled that road with a friend who was living in Salalah at the time several years ago. From Salalah westward towards the Yemen border, and then again towards Mirbat on another occasion, I marveled at the breathtaking scenery and enchantment during the entire drive. The ambience and vibes unique to that region of the world made me think that ancient hominids migrating out of Africa and settling in Arabia. They followed the coastline as they migrated eastward, and some going inland, following herds and feeding off the seafood.
I think it’s awesome to imagine that already thousands of years ago part of this was a vibrant center for merchants and traders. 😳😍🤯
@@Got2Go Indeed! At a stop near to Mirbat, my Omani guide suggested I walk to a high point to take in the view, and my first thought was that here was where many early humans trekked eastward during their migrations across the planet.
Magnificent!
Such stark beauty and wonderful people.
Beautiful Oman and lovely people
As well very safe country
Thank you sister.....we hit this route yesterday.....speachless
The roads are half Grand Canyon, and half beach, what a great combination.👏👏👏👏👏👏 Are you carrying any of the luggage? Because it looks like (he who shall not be named) is carrying all of it…..😘😬😉🤣🤣🤣🤣
