Camels,Falcons,Dunes,Beach! - I had Sajid as my tour guide and he was great! We started off with the pick up from the hotel, which was on time with great communication. We drove out to the desert where I received a red and white head wrap before riding the camels. It was a short distance but plenty of pictures were taken and even video of me on the camel. There were also falcons at the camel stand that I was able to hold and take pictures with. Everyone their was very helpful and nice. I went alone but was able to get tons of pictures. Next, we drove into the desert where there are mountains of sand. I am very scared of the driving on the dunes but Sajid drove to where I wasn't too scared lol. We slid down the side of the dunes with a board which was excellent and again I received many pictures and a video of the activities which was much appreciated. Lastly we ended the tour at the beach where the sand is much cooler and the waves were magnificent 👌. I was dropped back at my hotel safe and sound. Please remember to tip because these experiences are priceless. Everything was wonderful!

Great time during a layover - Had a great time with my family exploring the desert on this tour during a long layover. We learned a lot about Qatar from our guide and would recommend it to others.

Half Day with "Dune Rider" Sakir - We had a 20 hour layover at Doha Hamad Airport and booked the half day tour on last minute. Even though the booking initially got lost due to a hiccup between the booking systems, the Agency was very flexible and sent us Sakir as our guide and driver. Already on the way into the desert he gave us quite some insights into his hometown. The 5 min Camel ride was the expected "do your photos" stopover. The ride in the desert was worth every single penny. He even gave the opportunity to take a bath in the "Inland See" - which turned out be a narrow by close to the Saudi Arabian Border. Sakir's "dune driver skills" are excellent, really exiting staff. Thanks to him an boring 20h layover turned in an outstanding memory.

Great desert experience - This was an incredible experience! It was unlike anything I've ever done. Ishaq was a really fun driver and made sure we had enough water and had a good time. A highlight was going to a beach near the border of Saudi Arabia and playing in the water there.

Highly Recommend - My family and I had an unforgettable experience on the desert safari in Doha, thanks to our fantastic guide, Abed. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the area and made sure we were comfortable and having fun throughout the trip. The camel ride was a highlight and his enthusiasm was contagious. We also loved sandboarding for the first time. Highly recommend this tour and especially Abed as your guide!

10/10 would do again - We loved our tour! It was an amazing experience. We got a nice short camel ride, explored the sand dunes in land cruisers (commercial worthy, honestly), and checked out the Persian Gulf. Ishaq was our driver and made us feel safe, comfortable, and adrenaline. He also made sure we got awesome pictures and provided cold waters.

Wonderful experience - Excellent service, excellent staff. It was super, super fun. It was a unique experience. The camel ride was amazing, and the sandboarding was an exhilarating experience. The dune bashing in the Land Cruiser through the dunes was thrilling and perfectly safe, thanks to the skilled driver. ISHQ from Pakistan was an amazing guide and driver. Overall, it was a memorable adventure that I would highly recommend to anyone looking for an exciting desert safari."
