TRIP'S SCHEDULE

The Drive to Salalah 19th Aug 2022

The meeting time will be 09:00 PM at Al Maha petrol station “Oman “ (leaving 09:30 SHARP). We will leave from Al Ain (Mazyad) border to Oman and expect to reach Salalah in the next day at NOON, where we are going to the hotel to sleep and start our program the next day.

Accommodation – 20th. to 25th. August (5 nights)

You have to arrange for your own accommodation because as a club we can’t arrange it for you (all depends on your budget). I advise you that you start your booking NOW!!.

The Fun Drives in Salalah, 21-24 Aug 2022

We will provide you with a meeting point for the morning time, which is going to be 9:00 AM, you MUST have your supplies of food because our drives are going to be until SUNSET so there will be just few eating stops.

The Drive Back Home, 25th Aug 2022

We will meet at 09:00 AM, then drive back home through Al Ain, where the expected arrival is to be at 23:00.

======================================

FAQ :

OUR MEETING POINT IS AFTER THE BORDER SO IF YOU REACH US THEN YOU SOLVED ALL THE FOLLOWING ISSUES.
• Visa: There is a new regulation where you have to check with the Omani embassy and it is the sole responsibility of the driver.
• Financed car: We crossed with no issue regarding the NOC from the bank in the past but the club can't assure you.
• Trip Ticket: We crossed with no issue regarding Trip Ticket last year but the club can't assure you.


See you in SALALAH

Dear Members

Due to the high demand. We are going to ask the senior members who already joined us in the past to give the space for the new ones.

Thank you for your understanding

Got it, makes sense. I have been in Salalah but my wife would be excited to see it too. I will remove us and stay on the wait list in case someone drops by the deadline.

Hi Petr

I already removed a couple of our members who joined us in the past. We believe that your visit with us gave you the capability to be able to navigate freely in Salalah without guidance.

It is too early because we might have dropouts from the list. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding

Regards
Shamsi

That's right! I will go on my own. If you see something red behind the trees, it is definitely not me :)

a RED car at the tail of the convoy is always appropriate for the convoy's safety 😀

@alshamsi_m unfortunately I missed signing up for Oman as I was travelling in a different timezone and woke up to find it already full. Even the waiting list says full but it's empty.

Is it possible to put my name on the waiting list in case someone drops out ?
Cheers,
