Great experience! - We enjoyed the tour that Amir gave us very much. He was knowledgeable and gave us interesting information. I'd recommend the tour. We couldn't have seen all this on our own.

Great tour of the north country - Amir was a great guide, very friendly, very helpful, and made us feel very welcome and comfortable. It was great to see the lesser known side of Qatar, see some of the country‘s history, and be able to walk and enjoy the desert. We would definitely recommend for anyone wanting to get out of the city.

Down the memory lane! - It was a great trip down the memory lane to Zubara fort. We enjoyed visiting the purple island as well. Our guide Bilal was very friendly and helpful. He stayed with us throughout and guided us of the heritage site that we visited. He deserves a 5 star from our side. Thanks Bilal bhai!

Fab tour of North Qatar - We had a great tour with Junaid. He shared his knowledge of the sites we visited and Qatari culture more generally. He was on time, thoughtful (loo and refreshment stops), and he’s a great driver. Thank you.

Northern trip of Doha was made perfect by Mr Zeno our tour guide and driver - Mr Zeno made this trip full of information. The history of Qatar and his local knowledge was superb. We even managed beautiful dates from the tree - do you know how great to eat fresh dates straight from picking from a date farm. This trip should be seen with Mr Zeno as numero uno tour guide. Thank you Mr Zeno
