The desert dune drive was exciting and beautiful. Our driver was excellent. The City Tour was very fascinating. Ali is a great guide. He is charming and very knowledgeable about the culture and the history of Qatar and Doha. We definitely recommend this Tour.

A tour we will not soon forget!
Alicia_H, Mar 2024
Amazing tour above and beyond our expectations! Noor, our private guide, was knowledgeable and worked hard to show us many places of interest. The desert safari was very memorable as well as the Souq Waqif. Noor was an amazing photographer, highly skilled with our iphones and took many cool photos of us. A tour we will not soon forget!
Book if you have a layover !
Heather_L, Mar 2024
We were in Qatar on a 9 hr layover , this was the perfect excursion to see both desert and city. The dunes driving was amazing !
Excellent!

Loved Doha
Ricardo_H, Jan 2024
Ismael made the whole day a memorable experience. It was super fun and we learned a lot. Would define go back!
Unforgettable!
Reshi_B, Jan 2024
We absolutely loved the tour. We really enjoyed chatting with Zain (our super friendly driver) and learning about everyday life in Qatar, the culture, history and the present day. The desert safari was definitely our highlight - with Zain’s driving skills, the music he played and the landscape, we had one of the best times ever! Unforgettable! Would highly recommend!
Great experience. Desert so fun!
Kayla_G, Dec 2023
I would give this 10 stars. Great experience and my guide Salman was perfect. The sand dunes were my favorite and I just loved how easy and fun everything is. Tip, find an ATM before you head out so you have cash on hand. Also take a light jacket as it can be windy in the desert late in day. Book this excursion around sunset and you won't be disappointed.
Fun, adventurous and educational tour!
Daniela_R, Nov 2023
We loved our tour with Ismael!! Since the moment he picked us up at the hotel until he kindly dropped us off at the airport he made sure that we were doing what we wanted, we had all the information about Doha/Qatar as he could could provide and made sure we had FUN!!! He is polite, educated and funny, and one hell of a great desert driver! The sand blasting is just so much fun people should enjoy it and let him do it, even though it may seem scary. He knows what he is doing and it’s a one in a life time experience!! He is also a great photographer and too gorgeous photos of me and my friend! Don’t hesitate to pay for any tour because they are worth it. And make sure to ask for Ismael. He will do his best to make your experience unforgettable! I can’t wait to go back to Doha/Qatar and explore other parts of the country!
Saw alot

Great guide...fun day covered a lot of "must see" points in Doha. Love the culture and quality of the people and community .
Perfect Doha Tour!
Paula_L, Sep 2023
This tour was PERFECT! I was only visiting Doha for a few days. With this tour, and Salman as my tour guide, I feel that I was able to see a good amount of the city’s highlights. Salman is very professional, and knowledgeable about Doha. He is also a great photographer which came in handy, as I did took the trip alone. I truly could not ask for a better experience. I am so appreciative of this tour and Salman. I would 10000% recommend. You will not be disappointed.

Incredible experience! Our driver Sajid was the best sand dune navigator as well as Doha expert. We couldn't recommend this experience more. If you have time in Doha, whether a long layover or just want a cool experience, do this one!

Amazing experience and a...
Simeon_H, Aug 2023
Amazing experience and a great way to explore Qatar. Our guide Salman was very kind and fulfill our wishes. We got picked up at the airport around 4pm and drove directly to the desert for a camel ride (extra charges) and dune bashing + an incredible sunset. The dune bashing in the desert was an awesome experience. Our guide made sure that we felt comfortable during the whole trip. He showed us different areas of Doha and we even had time to stop at a great restaurant for dinner. He also took great photos of us. We totally recommend this trip.
Recommended!
Jannie_J, Jul 2023
Thoroughly enjoyed this tour! My guide was Ismail. Rode a camel and then went dune bashing - what an experience that was, so much fun!! Loved the national museum. Leave plenty of time for souq waqif as there's lots to explore in there and especially if you're looking to buy things. I only requested 30mins at that stop as I wasn't shopping and that wasn't enough time to have a good look around. Ismail was happy to switch activities around so I did the museum last and requested to be dropped off at a shopping centre instead of hotel.

The best tourist guide.

I had a amazing experience in this tour. My driver asim is the best. I wish I could give him 100 stars.
Asim Qatar Tour great
Bryce_C, Mar 2023
Asim was a very helpful good guide of the Country of Qatar and showed us the city and desert at night plus we ate authentic family food .
Doha with Adnan
James_B, Feb 2023
Amazing experience. Prompt pick-up at our hotel (we requested to start there and end at the airport) an extremely kind guide and driver - Adnan. We adventured through the desert first, as it worked best for our schedule, but Adnan was flexible. The scenery was beautiful and it only took minutes after our tea and refreshment stop, while the car tires were deflated, before we were completely enveloped by desert all around. Adnan was an expert driver on some incredibly complicated terrain - bucket your seatbelts, kids. The tour of the city was great as well. While time was an issue for us, Adana curated a perfect sampling of what we could see in the time we had. I highly recommend this experience.
Great DOHA Tour
Carrie_K, Feb 2023
Great tour of the desert and city along with a camel ride. IsmaiL was a great tour guide. Thank you for showing us around Doha, highly recommend this tour.

Half great, half disappointing.
cmark69, Jan 2023
We enjoyed the desert portion very much. Our guide did not know that we booked the city and desert trip and when we were done at the desert he said he was driving us back to the hotel. I reminded him that we had the city and desert tour booked and he was surprised. We drove past the museum and did not stop as he said we would only have half an hour there, I thought it was an hour. So we told him half an hour was not enough. It was raining that day so we did not go to the cultural village. We went to the Pearl but were there for maximum half an hour and then he drove us to the market place and left us there as he said that half an hour is all the time we could spend there. He said that the market place was great for shopping so we told him to leave us there and we would take a taxi back to the hotel. All the stores we closed, we could not shop so we left with a taxi and went back to the hotel. It was disappointing as we really did not get what we paid for. We really only got a half day desert tour and not the city as paid for.
