    Asked on October 10th, 2023

    I am interested in this tour for Dec-Feb. What departure dates do you recommend? This tour says the cost is $1299 but I see prices that are over 50% higher. Can you suggest a trip and departure date for adding a UAE/Oman trip? What time of the year is ok to travel to Oman (ie: not too hot).
