Overlanding in the MIddle East | Amazing Oman | Beaches - Deserts - Zero Gravity | Part 2
Overlanding the middle east was one of the most amazing experiences i have ever had the opportunity to do, the landscapes are vast, the distances to travel challenging certainly when there is no scenery to look at, vast open spaces of white sand and pretty much nothing else at all.
In this episode we try and relay the experience of crossing Oman, from the far north to the extreme south in a single day, you will get the picture i think, long open roads with endless views of...sand, sand and well more sand, until we hit the coast.
Finally after many long hours behind the wheel we hit the town of Salalah, far in the South of Oman to setup camp on one of the prettiest beaches i have camped at ever. Spending a few days exploring the local surrounds and getting a great feel of the locals. Coming from Africa we are always sceptical when being approached by people but Oman and it's people are nothing short of incredible. Everyone is super friendly and really want to get to know you and spend time with you by inviting you for tea and a chat, we had a few of these moments but didn't have time to do it as much as we would have liked to, a 3 hour tea break is what a usual tea stop with a local turns out to be, truly interesting people and a willingness to listen and learn about our country and us about theirs.
After getting some itchy feet at camp Gaily and i decided to go to some tourist things and visited a few places along the way, from fish markets to local tea spots and some temples and a place called zero gravity.
In this episode without spoiling too much, check out our first few days in Oman and what we did.
Enjoy it guys!!!
A special thanks goes out to Freedom Overland who sponsored us the vehicle for the trip, the landy was epic and didn't skip a beat. It is safe to say though that i am not a convert and am happy to be back and driving the donkey again!

There’s a “uphill-downhill” road in SA as well, just outside of Weenen in kzn. Messes with your brain.
Terraine tamer is so legit it just dont quit
WHY SAY THAT CROCODILES ARE CANNIBALS IF ALL OF THEM ARE? HAHAHAHAHA
Is the leaf spring classified as part of unsprung weight or sprung weight?
Dates for a tour?
The car needs to be insured ?
great content! can you just go and wild camp anywhere in the cederberg?
Horrible way to die by your own kind
It's in the Kalahari desert where Yashua/Jesus will lowering down His New Jerusalem, somewhere after 1 May 2025. No wonder it has the biggest underground lake in the world. It's also the desert where the Woman (one church) of Revelations 12 will be kept safe underground.
Where does one get those wheel arches for the troopy in SA?
Please can you tell me where you got your “country flag map stickers”?
I had them made specifically for us, pics looked into making them to sell but they are just too expensive... its called doming...
Dark side of crocodile be like. They're cannibal. I thought they would associate each other and could work as a group like dolphin or lion but this proves me wrong that they prefer to acted individually and selfish
Hi. The reflector stickers do they have to be stickers or can one use the plastic self adhesive reflectors?
Plastic is perfectly fine as well...
Eselbank is THE BEST place on earth, my mother was born there. You could've used the drone at the waterfall to see the actual waterfall. You also could've camped on Eselbank and checked out the Ereboog its breathtakingly beautiful. &.... When a horse and donkey mates you get an Esel 🤣 now you know lol. The Cerderberg is so beautiful.
That river is the definition of chaos. There’s Nile Crocodiles eating another while there’s hippos fighting in the background!
Awesome video! Where did tou have the convas work done? The spare wheel cover is incredible! Much appreciated.
Brilliant, brilliant,brilliant. What an amazing and brave video to make. I have done this in remote Limpopo area but with 3 other Jimny’s. It’s off the charts to do this type of travelling. From a fellow camper/Overlander. Cheers.
You guys are legends, we had such a good laugh, also nervous because we are off to the same area next week and I believe this is the rainy season lol Great video and glad you are all sorted and back on the road again. Respect for doing that run back to camp bud.
Thank you for the chat,the lady in the Jimny 06/11/23 nice meeting you🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
These crocodiles are literally the modern day dinosaurs. From the looks and to the strength.
Well crocs existed in the ages of the dinosaurs. Purussaurus deinosuchus kaprosuchus and a lot more.
