A Letter by the HK-Team
We partnered with the lovely Hans & Iana from HK for this special soon to be yearly event. Listen to the origin story for this cultural adventure.
Off to the Oman Classics
Last year, by chance and luck, we met Zainab Al-Mamari and Manuel Kiefer. A young Omani-German couple who are building a business bridge between Oman and Germany, including import-export as well as classic cars. The acquaintance turned into friendship and after their first participation in one of our HK Rally, we started dreaming of a rally in Oman together.
As we had already gained some experience in the Emirates and the young Omani-German couple seemed very likeable and motivated, the dream quickly turned into serious discussions and soon into reality. Soon we were making plans together for an unforgettable rally, which would also be the starting signal for our activities in Oman, so to speak.
Another reason for this decision was the fact that Oman has far more scenic highlights to offer than the Emirates and is much more pristine in every respect. So Zainab, Manuel and their team set to work and soon they compiled some of the most attractive hotels and decided on the first most scenic routes. We, Hans Kleissl and Iana Petrivska, traveled to Oman for three days to plan the details and we were very impressed by the beauty and hospitality of the country. We were able to see for ourselves that this rally certainly has many highlights to offer and will meet with great approval and enthusiasm from the locals.
The Chief of Police immediately said that if there was a traffic jam anywhere, we would be given an escort to keep the roads clear and guide us safely through the country. The event will last 6 days and you can expect wonderful routes and excellent hotels.
The rally is designed for tourist and culinary interests, accompanied by driving experiences of a special kind. There will be no tests or timekeeping. You will enjoy an unforgettable driving experience at a pleasant 25 to 30 degrees. You can expect very well-maintained, asphalted roads. We will reach the planned desert camp with four-wheel drive vehicles.
Your HK-Team,
Hans Kleissl and Iana Petrivska
