In Oman, the primary currency accepted is the Omani Rial. Notes come in denominations of 500, 200, 100, 50, 20, 10, 5, and 1, while coins are available in 50, 25, 10, and 5 denominations. It's recommended to carry sufficient cash as local vendors and taxi drivers typically only accept cash payments. Nevertheless, Oman's advanced infrastructure means that many upscale establishments also accept electronic payments, including major cards like MasterCard. It's essential to note that only Omani currency is accepted, and other currencies are not recognized for transactions.

Oman, an Arab country, is predominantly characterized by adherence to Ibadhism, a form of Islam, among its people. While religious diversity may be limited, there are small communities representing various castes. Omani society values adherence to rules and regulations and takes pride in its cultural heritage. Arabic is the primary language spoken, with dialects like Balochi and Jibbali also present. In some regions, Urdu, French, or Swahili may be spoken alongside Arabic. English serves as the second language, facilitating communication for tourists, with signboards often displayed in both Arabic and English for ease of understanding.

Oman boasts a captivating history dating back over 5000 BC, with southern Oman renowned for its copper and frankincense trade. This trade network elevated Oman's prominence as a powerful entity, engaging in commerce with various nations. In the 7th century, Oman embraced Islam, marking a significant cultural and religious shift. The Bani Nabhan dynasty subsequently governed Oman for five centuries. However, in 1507, Portugal's invasion sparked a prolonged struggle for liberation. Following the Portuguese era, Oman briefly fell under Persian control. Notably, in the 19th century, Sultan Said, one of Oman's most influential rulers, expanded the country's influence, establishing a significant empire. However, Sultan Said's reign eventually gave way to his son, Qaboos bin Said, who seized the throne and embarked on a modernization campaign that transformed Oman into the progressive nation it is today.
