Exploring the North - Great private tour of Al Khor fishing port, Purple Island Mangroves, Al Zubara Fort and the Jumail abandoned village. My guide and driver Syed was very knowledgeable on both the history and culture in Qatar and I would definitely recommend him. A great tour if you want to spend time outside of Doha, exploring Qatar.

A fun and informative afternoon - What a fab time spent with Faisal! He was so informative and knew the answers to all of our questions. The time just flew by. We feel like we know so much more about Qatar now and enjoyed all the stops. We can highly recommend this trip

Beautiful Zubara Fort - A great trip to see the Zubara Fort in the North of Qatar. Nasser is a great driver for the trip. The mangrove area in the middle of the area was also very interesting. It is about one hour drive from Doha to the Fort so please take into account when planning this trip

Disappointing but worth if done right - We did the Dessert Tour with an amazing tour guide. However, our 2nd trip to the North of Qatar was disappointing 1. The tour should have been longer than 4 hr because the places are far from each other 2. Jumail Village was a waste of time. Zubara fort and Purple Island is a wonderful place to explore 3. Choose your tourist guide that have higher rating. Fun and professional guide does make a difference
