Up and away

As the Salalah Tourism Festival kicks off now until the end of August in celebration of the annual khareef season, it will also mark a new milestone with the Sultanate’s first hot-air balloon festival. The first of its kind in the GCC, the nearly one million visitors to khareef will have a chance to fly high for a bird’s-eye view of the Dhofar greenery with as many as 15 hot air balloons available for a stunning lift above the clouds. The festival will also offer a playground for children, international restaurants, and even a race-track for cars. For more information visit www.dm.gov.om.
