Amazing private tour for the family - The tour was amazing! It was full of attractions, also our interests were take into account. Abdul Nasir did a great job, he was polite and courteous, offered plenty of enjoyable activities and took us to the best spots. We loved Katara spot the most, also going into the mosque and learning more about the culture and traditions. I would highly recommend this private tour! 😍

Awesome experience with great guide - It was awesome having this beautiful experience. Our guide Abdul Nasir knows each and every thing about Qatar history as well as specific places which we are visiting in this tour. He helped me in every way and answered each and every question. It is a long drive in this tour and without a good companion, you will get bored. Purple island/mangroves were beautiful and natural and fort provides insight into heritage.

Qatar’s North - To experience a bit more of Qatar, I wanted to see the North. It was really nice to see the contrast of the busy city to the complete emptiness of the countryside. For me the highlight was the beach at close to Al Ruwais! It was really peaceful. Throughout the whole drive, Sajid was really good company. We had really good chats about the history of country and how it has developed in the recent years.

Private city trip with private guide Nassir - Today we had a great city trip in Doha with our private guide, Nassir. He has guided us excellently and showed us all the beautiful places of the city. Thanks to his knowledge and enthusiasm, we had an unforgettable day. Nassir made us feel comfortable and gave us lots of interesting information about Doha's history and culture. An absolute must for anyone who wants to explore this beautiful city!

Great Half day tour - A great tour to explore some out of the way places in Qatar. Service was excellent as was the much needed air conditioned vehicle . Great stops for Arabic tea and plante of water supplies and kept cold in the vehicle . Abdul was a great guide and spoke amazing English explained and answered every question asked thoroughly and succinctly. I would recommend this tour as something different to do for a half day All stops interesting and historical

Recommended. - Booked a 7am tour since I wanted to avoid afternoon heat. Adil was a fun and informative tour guide. He shared historic stories of Doha as we drove past any landmarks. A comfortable 4WD air conditioned vehicle. I would recommend this tour if you’re a first timer in Doha and have only a few days to explore the city.
