Muscat: A new report published by the British website Warrington Worldwide said  that following the lifting of travel restrictions, the Sultanate of Oman has seen an increase in the number of visitors from around the world. This is evident by the dramatic rise in the number of visitors from other countries staying in the country’s hotels.

Compared to January of last year, the number of European visitors, including British tourists in Oman, increased by 641.5%, according to the National Center for Statistics and Information (NSCI).

The National Center for Supercomputing Information (NCSI) reported that at the end of January 2022, there were 26,571 European visitors, compared to 3,844 in January 2021.

The report said, the Oman Ministry of Tourism’s 2040 Tourism Strategy plans to develop a series of unique tourism experience throughout Oman that reflect the country’s rich cultural history and traditions. The Ministry of Tourism is encouraging visitors to stay in Muscat for a few days before heading to the mountains, the desert, or Salalah in the Sultanate’s southernmost region, which offers a very different climate.

The Ministry is promoting Salalah’s experiential offerings. The new airport in Salalah is helping to boost tourism in the region, and Salalah is becoming a more popular tourist destination. Multi-product offerings, including pristine coastline, mountain range, and desert expanse, offer a wide range of unique and unforgettable experience for visitors to the region, the report added
