Oman is an experiential destination
India Outbound
|September - October 2022
Oman Tourism recently concluded its multi-city roadshow in India, its first onsite activity in the country in over two years. Asma Al Hajri, deputy director general of Ministry of Heritage and Tourism says Oman is an experiential destination that is looking at quality and not quantity in terms of tourists.
What is the objective of this roadshow in India?
The objective of the roadshow in India is to strengthen the relationship between Indian partners and Oman stakeholders, who have come all the way from Oman to meet with Indian partners.
We will be conducting the roadshow, today in New Delhi, followed by Mumbai, Chennai and Bengaluru, so the main objective is to build a relationship between Omani partners and our Indian stakeholders.
How has the revival of tourism been so far and what kind of travellers is Oman seeing from India?
We are very optimistic about the visitors who are coming to Oman in general and within that India is a very important market. In 2022, in fact, India has become the second largest market for us in Oman.
We have seen around 167,000 Indian travellers, from January to July 2022.
