We are planning a trip to Oman and this is the book to have if you have aXand want to explore the less beaten tracks.

Great maps! Used this book heavily when I went to Oman for the first time, Definitely will come back, definitely will use the book again,

I think, however, that the "OffRoad" part in the title is rather misleading as I was expecting the book to enable me to do what I do here in Qatar.
Instead, we ended up spendingof the time on tarmac road andon clear tracks/ very well used paths.
not much of aXrough adventure there,

Apart from that, the Oman Off road Explorer's also advertising heavily on the Trekking guide,

What irritated me was that the GPS points given are of the junctions on the main road, not for the really difficult to find points.
We didn't manage to find some of the places we want to visit because of this, We could have, if we could just drive off across the desert to a given GPS point,

Also, for some reason, despite its obvious huge popularity at least it is in my circle of friends I could not find the newer edition of the book in any bookshops in this region.
The country's roads and tracks changed quite a bit after the cyclone in early summer of, This wasn't such a problem for us as we just needed to do a bit of a detour or take a newer road hats off to the Omani government for speed and thoughtfulness in getting the country back on business after the catastrophe!.


Still, its got some pretty good satellite pictures as maps, nice descriptions and tips albeit incomplete, also in an easy to use format.
Definitely would be very interested to get my hands on the next editions, also if they do a similar one for the other countries' apart from the UAE one that they have that I don't need.
