Sharqiya Sands looks like a sea of golden waves at dawn, and this Royal Balloon flight lets you float right above it all in complete luxury. Internationally acclaimed pilots keep the ride smooth and safe while you glide for about 50 minutes over the dramatic desert dunes, watching the sun rise and paint the sands in soft oranges and pinks. The basket holds just 16 passengers for an exclusive feel, full international insurance covers everything, and you walk away with a commemorative medal to prove you did it. The kind of serene, breathtaking Oman experience that feels straight out of a dream – quiet, vast and utterly unforgettable.
