The Oman

A two-day, approximately 350 km guided self-drive SSV expedition through eastern Oman. It starts at FOX ATVs Al Jarda Hub and finishes at FOX ATVs Sand Hub near Wahiba Sands, connecting mountain trails, wadis, ancient highlands and desert dunes.

Yes. You drive a two-seat Polaris RZR Pro XP while following the FOX ATVs guide. The team leads the route, explains each stage and coordinates support. This is a guided expedition, not an independent buggy rental.

The planned package includes a 2025 Polaris RZR Pro XP with two seats for a driver and passenger. Your allocated vehicle and any alternative arrangements are confirmed before booking.

Previous SSV experience is not essential, but you should be a confident licensed driver and comfortable with a demanding off-road journey. Vehicle orientation and a safety briefing are provided before departure.

Yes. Every driver must be at least 18 and hold a valid driving licence. Bring your licence and identification to the starting hub.

Start at FOX ATVs Al Jarda Hub, within driving distance of Muscat. Finish at FOX ATVs Sand Hub in the Wahiba Sands area near Bidiyah. This is not a return loop. Arrange onward transport or ask the team about any available transfer options before booking.

This is a demanding multi-terrain adventure with prolonged driving, technical rock crawling, uneven wadi tracks, gravel, steep gradients and dunes. Participants should be physically comfortable with two substantial driving days.

Yes. Four meals are included: Day 1 lunch and dinner, followed by Day 2 breakfast and lunch. One hotel room is included for the overnight stay. The hotel, room arrangement and overnight location are confirmed for your selected departure before booking.

A guided scenic walk is part of the planned itinerary. The walking route and duration depend on water levels, weather, time and the group’s ability. Walking and hiking sections are optional; swimming is not guaranteed.

The expedition visits the surrounding highland region and accessible viewpoints. Cave entry or descent is not included. It requires specialist equipment, qualified supervision, separate arrangements and official authorisation.

The planned route includes selected accessible stone tombs in the Salmah Plateau and Jaylah region. Access depends on the route, site conditions and heritage protection requirements. Respect the monuments and follow permitted access paths.

Scenic visits are planned at both destinations. Swimming is not guaranteed and depends on time, conditions, site regulations and the expedition schedule. Do not enter the water without the guide’s approval.

Each Polaris RZR Pro XP accommodates one driver and one passenger. Passengers must meet FOX ATVs safety requirements and fit the seat restraints and protective equipment correctly. Confirm suitability for younger passengers or special requirements before booking.

Arrange suitable personal travel and medical insurance independently before departure. Ask your insurer to confirm cover for guided self-drive off-road SSV, SxS, UTV or buggy activities in Oman, including medical emergencies, evacuation and repatriation. Standard travel policies may exclude motorised off-road driving. Vehicle damage liabilities and contractual responsibilities remain governed by the FOX ATVs terms and waiver.

Yes. Fuel required for the planned route is included. The support team coordinates scheduled fuel stops, vehicle checks and operational arrangements throughout the two days.

Yes. Weather, wadi water levels, trail access, heritage restrictions and safety may require changes. Distances and timings are approximate. The guide manages adjustments while aiming to preserve the expedition’s variety and quality.

A regular buggy adventure usually focuses on one area. The Oman Traverse is a complete two-day journey across approximately 350 km, connecting rocky mountain trails, wadis, natural attractions, archaeological heritage and Wahiba Sands.
