Orient Memories
Your expert for personalized travel experiences
Discover the secrets of the Orient
Orient Memories, a brand of Take Memories, transports you to the fascinating world of the Orient. Here, golden dunes meet vibrant souks, endless deserts meet quiet oases – and every place tells its own story. Our small, passionate team knows these countries not just from maps, but from personal experience. We have discovered their streets, landscapes, and secrets ourselves – and share this knowledge to create journeys that are as unique as your wishes. Whether you feel the magic of a starry night in the desert or stroll through colorful alleys: We plan every trip with dedication, authenticity, and love for detail. This creates encounters, moments, and memories that last.
We do what others find too complicated
It all began in Oman. After my studies, I moved there for an internship – what started as three months turned into three years, as the country and its people captivated me. At some point, I bought a tent, moved into the desert, and founded Canvas Club Glamping. By then, it was clear: The Orient had captured me forever.
From this passion, Orient Memories was born. Today, we are the leading specialist for tailor-made and high-quality Oman trips in Europe – and we are long since operating throughout the entire Arab world. We have traveled extensively in Lebanon, crossed Saudi Arabia completely when it opened up, and venture into regions that others avoid – Syria, Yemen.
We know every destination from personal experience. Every trip has been scouted, tested, and conceptualized by us. We personally select hotels and guides and even operate our own agencies in some countries. This ensures that every detail is right – for journeys that are real and lasting.

Appreciated by our clients worldwide
The hotels were perfect, great location, spacious rooms with the first-class service!The hotels were perfect, great location, spacious rooms with the first-class service! We enjoyed the landscapes of Oman. The Alila is fantastic, the food was very good and the Al Bustan is an experience in itself. However, the highlight was certainly the two days in the desert with the unparalleled team and their concern for our well-being, their friendliness, and perfect service under the guidance of Ali – we did regret not spending another day in this fantastic desert world.
Unreservedly recommendableFrom the booking to the execution of the trip, everything very well organized and clearly presented (not unimportant for self-drivers)! One feels well advised and in good hands. The private Canvas Club Camp in the Wahiba Desert is a unique experience that we will not soon forget!
1000 and one nightEverything went smoothly in terms of organisation. I was able to gather many great travel experiences in Oman and will definitely travel there again. My guide responded well to my wishes and gave me a very passionate understanding of his country. The overnight stay in the desert was an incredible experience that I definitely want to repeat. Thank you for the great organisation, I will definitely recommend it.
