Highlights
  • Slipway Halul - Located near Doha Port, this destination encapsulates the trendy, unique, and eclectic spirit of modern Qatar. Box Park features vibrantly colored, reimagined shipping containers that have become an inspiring spot for city explorers.

Box Park is filled with metal containers that once transported cargo but have been transformed into shops, cafés, dining outlets, and commercial spaces, with various food trucks nearby. Don’t forget your camera; with walls showcasing artistic creativity, it seems Instagram was made for Box Park.

  • Souq Waqif - Nestled in the heart of Doha, Souq Waqif is one of Qatar’s most popular tourist destinations and a major shopping hub! It’s a place to spend time with loved ones, hold a falcon, pet a camel, watch mounted heritage police officers in traditional 1940s Qatari uniforms, and take plenty of photos!

Souq Waqif is an iconic destination, and no trip to Doha is complete without a visit.

  • Doha Corniche - A 10km long, palm-fringed promenade and dual carriageway that curves around Doha Bay and the city’s waterfront. It is lined with hotels, government buildings, beautifully manicured parks with family facilities, and public buildings such as museums and a library. People love to stroll along the Corniche, taking in the sparkling sights of the city and the Arabian Gulf.
  • Katara Cultural Village - The largest and most multi-dimensional cultural project in Qatar. It is a place where people come together to experience global cultures. With stunning theatres, concert halls, exhibition galleries, and state-of-the-art facilities, Katara aims to become a world leader in multicultural activities.
  • The Pearl Island - A Riviera-style man-made island developed in an exclusive enclave of Doha. It is the Middle East’s most glamorous address, covering 400 hectares of reclaimed land and Qatar’s first international urban development venture.
  • Lusail - Fifteen years ago, you might have asked, ‘Where’s that?’ but today, Lusail City is not only firmly established on the map but also deeply ingrained in the hearts and minds of Qataris, expatriates, and tourists. With its iconic stadium set to feature in the World Cup and a population of around 200,000, Lusail City can rightfully claim to be the smartest, most technologically advanced smart city in the region, if not the world.

Lusail’s high-speed fiber technology network gives businesses a competitive edge, while residents enjoy an excellent quality of life within a sustainable environment.

Spectacular night tour in Doha - Naser is a wonderful guide who picked me up promptly from the airport and took me around Doha. We stopped often to take breathtaking photos and look at spectacular views. We spent time walking around and he taught me about Doha, the country, and some culture. A friendly and positive tour. I highly recommend this tour and Naser. Thanks for the lovely time during my brief visit to Qatar.

Great tour!!! - Kareem, our exceptional tour guide for the tour in Doha desert safari, ensured we were well-informed at every step. His patience and assistance were remarkable. Despite missing out on tea and coffee initially, he went the extra mile to arrange it for us elsewhere. The tour itself was incredible, covering hotel pickup/drop-off, a comfortable AC vehicle throughout, thrilling dune bashing, sandboarding, and capturing stunning photos from great angles. I wholeheartedly recommend this experience - it’s a solid 10/10. The only hurdle was a slight language barrier, but we managed well by picking up key words, making the experience enduringly enjoyable.

Wonderful taste of a beautiful city - My tour guide, Naser, went over and above to make sure we got our tour. We struggled finding our meeting place because we had to exit the airport and hotel. Naser was patient and helped us reach him. He even phoned our hotel a couple of times! The private tour was great. We were able to see so many sights in a very short time. The highlight for me was a 30 minute stop at the souk Waqif. We booked this adventure because we had a 14 hour layover on our journey from the U.S. to Singapore and I wanted to see more of Doha than the airport. I'm glad we did!

Faisal is the best - Faisal was the best tour guide we’ve ever had! We had a great day we saw everything. He took us everywhere and we got a great sense of the city with all the insider information you could ever want. Book Faisal or you will be disappointed!
