QATAR · DOHA CITY TOURS
67 reviewed
Doha rewards a guide more than most Gulf capitals, because the good parts are scattered: Souq Waqif, the Museum of Islamic Art on its own island, the white grid of Msheireb, Katara and the Pearl marinas. Here are the city tours worth booking, with what each covers, whether the museum entry is included, how long they run, and which ones finish on a dhow.

“Must have in Doha. It was a great experience with our guide Sajid from Golden Adventures Qatar. First we had a city tour by car visiting several nice places for a short stop each. Then we took a small lunch, we invited Rajid, before we went to the desert. The desert part will stay in my mind forever. He drove with us through the dünes, we made a short stop to ride a camel and watch falcons before we went to the beach. On the way one of us 3 has done sand boarding with the board Sajid brought for us. Also very nice was the driver with dune buggies…”

We walked around the Souk and saw camels, Arabian horses and falcons and explored the bazaar full of colorful shops and amazing architecture.
