A Country Full Of History, Wildlife and Traditions ~ Oman

Описание: Oman: World Responsible Tourism Awards 2014 at WTM

The Sultanate of Oman’s Ministry of Tourism is committed to developing a range of quality tourism products that not only promote cultural integrity and environmental protection but that also lead to a diverse and sustainable tourism industry both at home in the Sultanate and overseas.

By sponsoring the awards the ministry wishes to recognise and support the development of tourism products across the world that are internationally renowned yet mindful of their position within the natural eco systems and traditional communities from which they have grown. The protection of historic, cultural and natural heritage should always be developed so that it provides sustainable economic benefit for the surrounding local communities.

Green landscape, Oman. By promoting ecologically sound tourism products we hope consumers will have the opportunity to assist in the economic spread of tourism whilst protecting natural ecosystems and communities.

We continually strive to achieve this in Oman by targeting responsible international tourists and developing close cooperation between the government and private sector both at home and abroad whilst educating local communities on the long – term benefits of tourism.
