If you've found yourself deep in the Oman Wanderlust website or Facebook group, scribbling notes and still wondering "but which route is right for us?" - this is for you.
I receive so many wonderful emails from people planning trips to Oman, and I absolutely love that. The problem is the kind of detailed, personalised advice people are looking for - the stuff that goes beyond a blog post - needs next level attention. So I've created Wanderlust Chats: a dedicated one-to-one Zoom session where you get my undivided attention and honest, experience-based answers to your questions.
What is a Wanderlust Chat?
It's a 45-minute video call over Zoom, just the two of us (and the people your travelling with if you like), where you can ask me anything about planning your Oman adventure.
I'm not a travel agent and I won't be booking anything for you - what I offer is something quite different.
I spent 2.5 years living in Oman with my family, exploring the country extensively and experiencing it in a way that most holiday guides simply can't replicate. I know the places worth the detour and the ones that disappoint. I know what it's actually like to travel there and I'm happy to share all of that with you, personally.
Who is this for?
Wanderlust Chats are perfect for you if you're:
- A family trying to figure out what's actually doable with kids, what to skip, and how to keep everyone happy
- A couple looking for the most magical corners of the country
- A solo traveller wanting honest advice on safety, logistics and the experiences not to miss
- An adventure seeker keen to know where to find the best hiking, wadis, dunes and off-the-beaten-track experiences.
What we can cover
Every chat is tailored to you, but here are some of the things people most often want to talk through with me:
- Itinerary sanity checking - does your plan make sense, or are you trying to squeeze in too much?
- Region and destination recommendations based on your travel style and interests
- Where to stay - from budget-friendly to luxury, and what the different areas are actually like
- Getting around - road trip routes and practical logistics
- Travelling with children in Oman - from my own experience as a mum
- Hidden gems, local experiences and the things I genuinely love about Oman
- What to pack, when to go and everything in between.
What a Wanderlust Chat isn't
I want to be upfront with you: I am not a travel agent or travel planner. I won't be booking flights, hotels or tours on your behalf.
If you do want a travel agent I can recommend Laura from The Travel Design Company. She can help find and book holidays for families, couples and groups, or guides, accommodation and excursions.
