Noufal was such a great tour guide! He was very friendly and genuinely wanted us to have a good time. He also was very prompt with the pick-up time. The tour description was very accurate and each activity was really fun. I was scared to sand board standing up so Noufal showed me how to slide down on the board sitting like a sled instead. I would definitely recommend!

Great trip to the Inland...
markwill99, Mar 2024
Great trip to the Inland Sea and the sand dunes in the south of Qatar. I would highly recommend this trip and this travel agency.
Great times, great guide!
Nermin_O, Mar 2024
Excellent guide. Great to see Camels. Pretty fun off-roading on sand dunes on the way to the sea. Good times sand boarding. Great refresher swimming in the blue sea. I saw lot's of small fish right where the sea gets deeper. Great conversation on the way back.
Great Tour
Otas_O, Feb 2024
Enjoyed my tour with Mohammed and a group of other tourists. The drive in the Safari was safe and fun. The camel ride was exciting as well as the sand boarding slide. We were offered lots of complimentary sodas, teas and water and he was kind enough to share his hotspot with me when I ran out of data. He also took fantastic pictures and was courteous about his service. I recommend booking this tour and patronizing Mohammed.
Great experience sand dune driver !
Urip_W, Feb 2024
Noufal the guide who drove the 4 wheels took us to have rolller-coasting drive around sand dune. Also they offered riding camel session. I never riding a camel before so this short ride was a great experience. He is a nice person and very accommodating when I asked him to find a place which I need to buy some snacks since I didn't have a breakfast earlier. He told us who came from different nationalities after picking them up from different hotels/locations that I need to get something and to stop at a gas station very briefly. This is very helpful if you need something in hurry before trip to the desert.
Good tour worth doing
Rustom_K, Jan 2024
Good tour overall. They need to be careful about their pickup timings since tour mentioned 2:30 pm and the driver came at 1:45 pm, luckily I happened to be ready. Also they should take you a little further in the inland sea, rather than just the edge. But overall worth doing.
Fun trip to the dunes
Matt_W, Jan 2024
We had a fantastic afternoon dune bashing and seeing the sights with our guide, Ash. We absolutely felt we were in good hands. We would recommend this trip to anyone who has a short stay in Doha and is looking for a way to see more of Qatar.
It was great, very...
Marina_C, Dec 2023
It was great, very saturated program. Very nice guide, camel riding was fun, dune riding is adventurous
Worth every penny!
Jacqueline_K, Dec 2023
The driver was very informative and knew the whole trip well. The drive on the sand dunes was excellent and the driver really gave us a ride worth our money! it was worth every moment. We missed the sunset due due clouds but we managed to get wonderful pictures just before, that is mother nature for you. Wonderful experience in all
Great tour at great value!
Stuart_S, Dec 2023
My guide's name was Atta. He communicated well from before pick up throughout the tour. Very friendly and knowledgeable guide. I was solo, but we had 5 other tourists in the SUV with us. I sat in the front. Atta gave us information on the entire ride about Qatar and the local areas. He had a great attitude and seemed to truly want us all to have a great time. We started with the camel ride, which was more of a photo opportunity, as it was only around 15 minutes. The guides were all very friendly and took lots of photos with our phones. I opted to get a photo with a Falcon, which cost around US$5.00. This was followed up by some delicious tea time. Then we had our drive through the desert, and Atta gave us a good ride for around 30 minutes with some loud music to get us in the mood. A few scary times, as we dipped down some steep sand dunes. Then we stopped at the top of a dune hill for sand boarding. This was a lot of fun for everyone. I took 2 rides, but probably could have taken another if I wanted to. Then we went off to the Inland Sea for a beautiful sunset and view of Saudi Arabia. I walked down to the sea and dipped my feet into the warm water. There were some locals there fishing and enjoying as well. After that, we took the long ride back. Atta was willing to drop people off anywhere, but I just went back to my hotel. Overall this was a great trip at great value, as I believe I paid around $70 through Viator with my discount coupons.
Great Trip
Richard_R, Dec 2023
This tour was booked at the last minute (night before). Pickup was a little late. The ride was pleasant. You get to ride a camel for 50m , an opportunity to get a photo with a bird for 20 Riyals , dune bashing in the 4x4 , multiple sandboarding attempts, and then off to the inland sea to see Saudi Arabia from afar.
Safe, fun and scenic. Recommend
Fiona_M, Dec 2023
This was a great trip from start to finish. The communication from the driver before he picked me up from the hotel was excellent, told me when he would be to pick me up etc, which was early. Faisal, the driver, was great. Did a mini tour as we were driving out the city, pointing out buildings etc as we passed. Very friendly, knowledgeable and funny guy. The activities included were good. The camel ride was short but the tour guide was able to take a lot of photos. Faisal handled the car amazingly and navigated the dunes in a fun, safe way. Sand boarding was great although we weren't allowed to stand up and the inland sea at sunset was amazing. Overall, great afternoon in the desert. Highly recommend
Awesome Half Day Excursion
Charles_B, Nov 2023
Our guide, Noufal, picked us up from the airport and dropped us off at our hotel once finished. The camel ride was maybe 100 yards and mostly photo opportunities (still fun though), and the dune bashing was surprisingly intense! We stopped at one point for sand boarding, and you could go several times so long as you were willing to keep climbing up the dunes. We ended at the inland sea for sunset, where we could see Saudi Arabia. Very great guide in Noufal as well!
Rude Tour Operator.
Jamees_C, Nov 2023
Mr. Adnan (tour guide) was extremely rude and unprofessional. We asked to be let out of the car and took an Uber back to our hotel. Not all tour operators are the same but I would not use Mr. Adnan for any tour in Qatar.
Epic and breath taking!
Michelle_M, Nov 2023
The drivers were very friendly and accommodating. They assisted with the taking of photographs. I would recommend this trip for anyone visiting Qatar!

Metzy, Oct 2023
This was such a fun and unique adventure. Our driver was kind and helpful he picked us up at the airport on time and made sure we enjoyed the adventure and was so helpful taking our pictures and giving us a cold drink. I definitely recommend you book this tour.
Fabulous!
Judy_W, Oct 2023
The guide was amazing, always checked we were comfortable and felt safe. Made sure we had plenty of water to stay hydrated. He was very friendly and informative, the perfect guide.
New exhilarating experience
Judy_T, Aug 2023
We thoroughly enjoyed the excitement of the sand dune driving which was great. We had never done anything like that before and sand boarding was fun. The camel ride was a bit short understandably but it was still a lot of fun.
Great trip, safe drivers!
Kudzai_Z, Apr 2023
My family enjoyed the adventure thoroughly. From constant communication prior to the day, to a smooth on-time pickup, the driver did well. He constantly asked us if we were alright and checked in to see if everyone was feeling safe throughout the dune bashing. The sunset at the inland sea was the cherry on top!
Atta - great experience
Kaveh_K, Apr 2023
Atta is a great tour guide and world class desert driver. He has great attitude and insights and makes sure that the customers have a good time.
