Fantastic Guide! - Hussain was outstanding! I wish we had booked him for more tours. He was knowledgeable, kind, patient, and engaging. He took us to places we would have never found on our own and provided us with fascinating information throughout the tour. He also gave us several recommendations for places to eat. We tried all of them and all were excellent! Highly recommend!

Great walking tour! - Really enjoyed this walking tour of the Souq! Hussain was friendly and gave good insight into different parts of the Souq I never would have explored on my own. It then gave me the confidence to explore the Souq later, as well as get tips for other things to do in Doha. Highly recommend!

Amazing souk in two hours - We met our guide Hussain at the designated location and he took us for a beautiful walk in the waqif souk, we had the opportunity to explore places that only locals know and learned about local culture and consumption. In the end, he still indicated an incredible experience at the Islamic cultural center. Thank you very much for everything.

Souq Qaqif - It’s a nice district and market and the things there a very cheap and affordable. Flexible and you can bargain with the seller to determine the price of a product

Immersive 2-hour tour - Immersive 2-hour walking tour at the Souk. Hussain very friendly and knowledgeable. Just right amount of detail. Saw places we wouldn’t have seen by ourselves.

Amazing tour of Doha! - This tour was great! I was backpacking by myself for a few months and did walking tour in most cities, this was one of the best, most in depth tours I participated in. I arrived at this tour and realised I was the only person booked in. Rather than cancelling, Hussain gave me a private tour of the Souq Waqif and gave me a very thorough explanation of the history of region.
If you have time to explore Doha, I would definitely recommend booking this tour!
