Persia is just across the Gulf. Visa-free for Omanis, a short flight from Muscat — and entirely arranged for you by Arian Tour.
For travellers based in Oman, Iran is one of the most rewarding — and most accessible — destinations anywhere. Ancient cities, dramatic landscapes and legendary hospitality lie just a short hop across the Gulf, yet feel a world away.
Arian Tour specialises in welcoming Omani residents and citizens. We handle the details that matter — flights guidance, airport transfers, handpicked hotels, a private English or Arabic-friendly guide, and clear pricing in OMR — so you simply travel and enjoy.
Plan My Trip from OmanWhether you prefer to fly or sail, reaching Persia from Oman is simpler than most travellers expect.
Regular flights connect Muscat — and seasonally Salalah — to Shiraz, Tehran and other Iranian cities. Southern Iran is only a short flight away, perfect for a long weekend.
From Musandam, a ferry crosses the Strait of Hormuz to Qeshm and Bandar Abbas, run by the National Ferries Company — a scenic route to Iran's southern islands.
Ordinary Omani passport holders can enter Iran visa-free for up to 29 days. For longer stays we arrange a visa on arrival or e-visa — and the Iranian Consulate in Ruwi can assist too.
Sample journeys our Gulf-based guests love — every one is private and fully customisable.
Fly from Muscat to Shiraz for the Pink Mosque, Hafez's garden and the wonder of Persepolis.
