The result is spectacular and although modern, timeless.

Stunning scenery especially when compared with the cityscape. Both stunning but totally opposite opportunities experienc - A great drive and an incredible contrast between yesterdays tour of the city and todays wide open spaces. Amazing rock formations and the steel sculptures in the middle of nowhere were just amazing. A great guide, very knowledgeable about the area and very obliging with photo opportunities. Highly recommend Noor as a driver/guide.

Qatar West trip - On short notice we booked this trip online. Everything went smooth and we were contacted by Imran K. via WhatsApp to confirm our pickup location. He arrived perfectly on time and took us out for the tour. He explained a lot and is a very safe driver.

Drifting across desert rocks! - Thanks to Zohaib we got to see the stunning scennery of Wester Qatar! We had enough time to take pictures at the rock formations, admired Richard Sierra's sculpture dividing East from West, saw Bedouin campings and even raced along the camel race track. He's a safe and experienced driver and owns the coolest car in Doha!
