Seeing the landscape, ancient forts, camel track, and learning about the history and culture of Qatar.

I really enjoyed my second day of touring Doha with Adil. I loved the time visiting the massive art exhibited that were largely in the desert. I learned and laughed so much! If you have 2 days in Doha like I did, do a city tour (day and night), a desert safari, and this exploration of other parts of Qatar!

I'm so happy I managed to explore, basically, the entire central and western part of the country! Really appreciate my travel guide Noor, who done extra job showing me as much as possible and explaining every small details on each of landmarks. I also like those many tea-stops for a short break! This tour is A MUST to see the life beyond Doha! Thank you once again, Noor!

Junaid was an excellent guide. Very informative. We were lucky enough to be at Ash Shahaniyah to see some camel racing. Crazy and exciting and Junaid drove us around the track following the camels and owners in their cars. Amazing experience! All the other sites we visited were interesting too. Totally recommend the tour. Thank you Junaid.

Wouldn’t recommend it.
1, there’s really not much to see outside the major city Doha. Lots of driving, and nothing impressive to see. The tour first started at a small stinky fish market, one small old castle, and some rock, nothing to see
2, the tour guides from this company are quite unprofessional. Better call them “drivers” than “tour guide”. They r just buddies with the owner, doesn’t know anything about local history or culture, doesn’t talk or explain much, and certainly not licensed driver
3, can’t believe our car breakdown midway, had to wait for another driver to pick me up to continue the tour. Not well trained or maintained team

This tour is a must if you are visiting Doha as see so much in a day and gives a different perspective to the country. A lot of driving but worth combining the north and west tour and making the most of the day. Abdul Nasir was the driver and highlighted the key points along the way. The desert installation was the highlight but the fort and camel track also amazing to see.

I highly recommend this private full day tour of the north and west of Qatar. After being in Doha, it was wonderful to venture out of the city to seen more countryside, cultural aspects and historical sites. Having the flexibility to start as early as 5:00 am meant that we were able to see the sunrise while we were at the limestone rock formations, including the mushroom-shaped rock and the Eye in the Rock. Thank you Sajid for the wonderful sunrise pictures! In addition, by 8:30 am we were in the camel racing area to see the many, large, camel groups coming and going to their morning training sessions. At Zubara Fort – Qatar’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site — we learned more about Qatar history and the perils of pearl diving. We also saw Bahrain from one of the towers. We visited an archeological site of a village from the 18th century and learned about ongoing efforts for preservation. The visit to the mangroves was unique, especially when thinking about an isolated body of salt water in the desert full of fish, crabs and birds! Our last stop was in Al Khor, a former pearl diving center, to see the old dhow port and the fish market. In addition, our guide, Sajid, who is Qatari, was so openminded to field any and all questions we had. We had met so many people during our visit but not anyone actually from Qatar. Sajid was a wealth of information and answered so many questions from us. It was wonderful to spend the day learning from him about Qatar and his culture.

Our guide and driver, Zohaib, did an excellent job of showing us the north and west of Qatar. On the way there and back, we also saw a commercial fishing marina, a fish market, and many camels near the camel racing track. A great day seeing some of Qatar outside of Doha.
