Highly recommend! - Yousaf was a kind and informative tour guide! He worked around my schedule to see the highlights while making sure I got back in time for a second tour I had booked. It was great going outside of Doha to see more of what Qatar has to offer!

Unique, immersive, fantastic day out - The North tour was another unique and unforgettable experience! Ismail and KJ were incredibly knowledgeable, sharing their insights and patiently answering all our questions. The mangrove forest is fantastic- walked along the wooden pathway and we saw water snails, crabs and fishes. Zubara fort was unique, and it was great to learn about the history and how people lived at that time. We would highly recommend visiting the ‘Shadows traveling on the sea of the day’ - got some great pictures there. The archaeological site at Al Jumail is also worth a visit and we watched the sunset there with some great views over the ocean! Everything ran smoothly, and it was truly a memorable day! Overall, a fantastic tour, wonderful opportunity to learn more about Qatar and great value for money!

North of Qatar - This was our first tour with Walleed, and your company and were very impressed with it, enjoying the other aspects of Qatar, the fish market, and the old forts. Walleed was very informative and courteous and we look forward to our second tour to the west coast hopefully with him as our guide. Alan Learmonth .

North Qatar tour with Hamad - We had a great tour of northern Qatar with Hamad. We were sent pickup instructions the day before via WhatsApp and were promptly picked up at the allotted time. The tour went to the fish market at Al Khor, purple island mangroves, Al Zubar fort, Shadows traveling on the Sea sculpture and Jumsil abandoned village. Highlights were definitely the fort and sculpture, which are both great photo ops. Good tour, exceeded my expectations and appreciated Hamad’s information on things like Doha on the drive.

Nice trip! - It was a nice trip. We went with Waleed. He picked us up from our hotel, so it was all very comfortable. Everything went fine. It's interesting to see Qatar outside of Doha. Thanks, Waleed!

Nice option for a trip outside the city limits - Besides the desert safari this is one of the rare chances to do a tour outside the Doha and Lusail city boundaries. Waleed was our tour guide for the afternoon, and he picked us from our hotel in Doha. The drive was smooth as the roads are very good. There was not much activity at the stopping points. This meant our stops were relatively short. The best stop of the day was actually the restaurant that Waleed recommended and where he dropped us; the Afghan Brothers restaurant along the Ahmed Bin Ali street.

Safe and sound - Our trip went safe and sound. The driver is also our tour guide. He was able to answer our questions about the places even if its not part of the tour. What we like most is the "shadows travelling by the sea" by olafur elliason.

Don’t do the north tour!! - Very boring tour. There’s nothing to see, and the 4hs drive is extremely monotonous in between places. had 4 x 2mins stops in places where I didn’t even know what they were, as my guide had little English. Don’t get me wrong, he was super kind and attentive, and drove super well. Car was perfect, and had water a juice for me. but very little information about the places, the city or the tour itself. For an almost 200€ tour, I was expecting way more. I wouldn’t recommend this tour to anyone in Doha.
