Shopping

Experience shopping in Oman the local way by going to any of Oman's vibrant souqs! The souqs offer you a glimpse of traditional Oman, with traders and shop owners sitting on the floor with their goods stacked from the floor up to the ceiling. The souqs are the best place to shop for souvenirs like the Bedouin jewellery, silver khanjars, incense burners and frankincense. The musky smell of Arabian incense will follow you through all the souqs in Oman, as will the collection of beautiful dates and sweet halwa. Don't forget to haggle, as it is part of the souq culture! Compare prices with other shops in the souq before negotiating with your favourite trader! Indulge yourself in household goods, traditional clothing, textiles and more as you navigate through the mazes that are the Omani souqs.
