Video To Get An Impression Of Lucas’ Road Trip In Oman (For 5 Weeks!)
Let’s start with this amazing 1- hour documentary that Lucas and Anna created. You will be absolutely amazed by the places they visited, and their great videography skills.
What They Explored In Oman
Travelling in Oman by 4×4 is an experience like no other. In one trip, Lucas and Anna went from coral islands to deep wadis, from remote beaches to desert canyons. Highlights of their rooftop tent adventure include:
- Wadi Tiwi, Wadi Bani Khalid & Wadi Arbeieen: perfect for swimming and hiking
- Wahiba Sands & Ramlat Jedelah: endless dunes made for 4×4 driving
- The Sugar Dunes: remote white-sand beaches with no one around
- The Empty Quarter (Rub’ al Khali): one of the largest sand deserts on Earth
- The Dhofar Mountains & Baobab Forest: lush green valleys in the far south
- The Balcony Walk & Oman’s Grand Canyon: dramatic mountain views and quiet trails

They did it all in a Toyota Land Cruiser with rooftop tent rented from iDrive4x4.
