Oman is one title in the main travel guide series from Bradt publishers - a company whose ethos focuses on responsible travel; operating on a philosophy of sustainability for both the places they provide guides for and the publications themselves, as well as encouraging the tourist to have the least possible impact on the environment they visit.

Guides are, in the main, divided into sections which first look at general, practical, background information, before focussing on what to see and where to go when you have arrived. Topics covered in the introductory details include cultural and geographical matters, as well as health and safety, tour operators and bureaucratic red tape.

Information on what to see, where to stay, where to eat and how to find your way around is provided, with a range of budgets catered for. Simple black and white maps locate key visitor sites and places of accommodation. The publisher has chosen to concentrate on imparting as much useful information as possible rather than fill the guide with a large selection of photographic illustrations.

Bradt titles come with appendices that provide an in-depth introduction to the language of each country, a glossary of terms the traveller might come across and a listing of books and internet resources which can provide further information on the destination.
