Panorama Travel

Panorama Travel is a Muscat-based ground operator that has specialised in Omani birdwatching for more than two decades. The company runs guided tours to 145+ documented birding sites across the sultanate, from the Batinah coast and Al Hajar mountains to the monsoon-fed khareef forests of Dhofar in the far south. Tours are pitched at serious listers — guides advertise a typical haul of 55+ lifers on week-long itineraries — and combine year-round programmes with private custom departures. The operation works with a 1:3 guide-to-client ratio and pairs birding with cultural visits across the sultanate's 541 recorded species.
