MHT to Launch Tourism Promotion in Jaipur, India: What It Means for Oman’s Travel and Business Investors
The Ministry of Heritage and Tourism (MHT) is set to conduct promotional workshops in Jaipur, India, from August 18 to 21, aiming to strengthen the Sultanate of Oman’s presence in both regional and international tourism markets.
This initiative is designed to present Oman as a unique tourist destination in the Middle East, highlighting its diverse geography, rich historical and cultural heritage, and a secure, stable climate. The Indian market holds special significance within MHT’s promotional strategy due to the rising demand for outbound tourism and the expanding cultural and economic ties between Oman and India.
The workshop will feature direct meetings with Indian travel and tourism agents, airline representatives, and industry media outlets. These interactions aim to establish strategic partnerships and introduce the comprehensive Omani tourism offerings, including wedding tourism, adventure tourism, heritage tourism, luxury hospitality, cruise tourism, and conference and incentive travel.
Accompanying the event will be visual presentations, introductory publications, and interactive sessions led by the Omani delegation, which comprises representatives from various Omani tourism institutions and businesses. The goal is to facilitate bilateral business-to-business (B2B) meetings with Indian counterparts and to showcase tailored tourism packages catering to diverse interests and groups.
In recent years, tourist arrivals from India to Oman have steadily increased, supported by visa facilitation, enhanced air connectivity, and greater cooperation between Omani and Indian companies.
Through these efforts, Oman aims to solidify its status as a premier and sustainable tourism destination while deepening engagement with key international markets.

This initiative also presents potential risks for competitors if they fail to adapt to the growing demand and new sector collaborations. Smart investors and entrepreneurs should prioritize forming cross-border partnerships and innovating specialized tourism offerings, such as luxury, heritage, and adventure experiences, to capture this expanding market.
