Visit Ar Rub Al Khali (The Empty Quarter), Dhofar's most remarkable and popular site with its untouched and magical sand dunes. Rub Al Khali desert is one of the Earth's hottest, driest, and most unyielding environments.
Drive from Salalah into Wadi Dawka, a UNESCO World Heritage site known as the Frankincense Wadi. Here you'll find the biggest collection of naturally grown Frankincense trees in the region. Experience the Frankincense and its use in the past as well as in the modern world.
Next, visit the lost city of Ubar, another UNESCO World Heritage site, 175km away from Salalah. According to the myth, this legendary ancient kingdom was swallowed up by the desert. Quite literally, it sank without trace, becoming the fabled "Atlantis of the Sands". After walking around the site, proceed to the Empty Quarter to experience the biggest sand desert in the World, by rambling on fascinating sand dunes. A breathtaking overview of the vast desert awaits you on the top of the dunes.
