Travelling between the UAE and Oman is now much easier and faster, after the signing of the MoU for borderless travel.
Ras Al Khaimah Tourism Development Authority (RAKTDA) and the Oman Tourism Development Company (Omran Group) inked a deal to boost tourism between RAK and the Governorate of Musandam in Oman.
Bordering Ras al Khaimah, Musandam is a popular destination for UAE residents and tourists seeking water adventure sports.
The agreement was signed in November 2023 at the World Travel Market in London.
In 2023, the Northern Emirate received a record 1.22 million overnight arrivals, up 8 percent on 2022 numbers and bolstered by a significant 24 percent year-on-year pick-up in international visitors.
The ‘nature emirate’ is growing its hotel supply to match the increasing demand, and placing sustainability and accessibility at the heart of its growth strategy.
