Oman is a friendly country and the people of Oman welcome the tourists with open arms. The list of ‘don’ts’, to be taken care of while in Oman is short and is related to the courtesy you have to show to the culture, tradition, religious practices and the way of life they live.
• Don’t walk on a prayer mat or in front of a person at prayer
• Don’t show the soles of your shoe or feet as it is considered as insult
• Don’t beckon with your figure and don’t make bad gesture
• Don’t comment negatively on religious, cultural or political field, it may put you in a bad position

• Do accept refreshments or invitation whenever a local invites you for a coffee or may be for a complete meal. In case if you get familiar with the driver you hired to explore the tourist spots, there may be a chance he can invite you to his place. Don’t decline such invitation and visit the place with gift or flower bouquet as a token of love and courtesy.
