Amazing evening with beautiful skyline and great food! - We were fortunate to take a Ramadan evening cruise lead by Moazzam. Super friendly staff, beautiful relaxing ride on a traditional boat, and better food than our 5-star hotel! Moazzam and team were wonderful- they catered to everything we needed and even took photos for us! A must do when in Doha!

Relax & Unwind on the Water - Chilled and relaxing experience. What a beautiful way to see Doha all lit up from the water. Food was amazing - crew on borrad were friendly and attentive. Traditional boat was nice, 2 seating areas, the top had the best views. Lover the experience - great way to relax after a busy day

Totally worth it ! - Great experience! From pickup to dropping off. The food tasted delicious, the guide was great and had excellent photography technique and seeing Doha’s night skyline with lights reflected on the water was indeed breathtaking! Totally recommend this tour.

Should you make - During the Dow ride you get close to the Doha skyline at night, which is hard to photograph from further away due to haze. Very nice staff. Food perfectly fine, samosa, kebab and hummus, salads, soft drinks. Pricewise, the excursion is fine. Please note: You drive quite a bit out into the bay, I've unfortunately become a bit seasick.

Did not live up to expectations - We wrote a review at the time of our trip (12th Feb) but its not showing on TripAdvisor or Viator where we booked and we think its important to provide some balance to the exuberant and glowing reviews posted here. What appealed to us is that the itinerary stated you would pass by: Sky View Doha Sheraton Grand Doha Resort & Convention Hotel The Pearl Island Lusail What you get is a closer view of the DOHA West Bay skyline that you can already see from The Corniche (for free) and this includes The Sheraton Resort. You spend 5 minutes here for photos, turn around and come back. It was a pleasant enough outing, the food was nice and plentiful, but there was very little input or interaction from our "guide" and the whole trip took just under 2 hours. Our trip did not include the advertised Pearl Island and Lusail which are much further around the coast, possibly another 30-60 minutes at least just to get there; this was what we wanted to see and what is stated in the itinerary. So for that reason it was disappointing.
