Duration: 4 hours
Cancellation: 24 hours
Highlights
  • EAST-WEST / WEST-EAST by Richard Serra - Serra’s public art has always been driven by a desire to take sculpture off the pedestal and on to the street

which perfectly aligns with our philosophy at Qatar Museums.

To him, the content of the work derives from interaction with the viewer, meaning he always has pedestrians in mind. He acknowledges that he can’t predetermine what people will make of it.

  • Hotel pickup and drop-off service
  • Specialized English-speaking guide
  • Comfortable in-vehicle air conditioning
  • Complimentary bottled water

Beautiful part of the country - must-see - Shahid was a delight! Fun personality (Gemini) who made us feel welcome. He was a wealth of information and we learned so much from him. We got a flat tire along the way, but he kept us safe and between him and my husband, they were able to change the tire in blazing heat and in a short amount of time. It actually worked out better so that we could see the ocean, salt flats and Richard Serra at dusk. I’d highly recommend Shahid! We had a great time!

The singing dune is to be tested - The landscapes are to be seen even if the site is small. The singing dune is really to be tested. Our driver, Mr Zeno, gives a lot of explanations.

Enlightening and beautiful desert experience with Murex. - We had a gorgeous afternoon with Sadiq. He met us at the airport and drove out to see the Richard Serra sculpture near the old Zakreet sites. Along the way he shared so much information about the desert life and history. Along the way he managed to find a way for us to witness the Camel races at close hand. He was so knowledgeable about this complex cultural landscape. He was patient with our questions and sensitive to our timing so that we were able to have a great dinner as the Ramadan fast ended and to connect to our flights that evening. We highly recommend !

Great tours and guide - We took 2 tours with Sahid. Both were really excellent and informative. He brought the scenery alive, giving history etc. really opened up our experience. Beautiful inland and beaches. Rock formations. Up close and personal with camels and horses. Saw oryx and a really funny desert by ig called the 4x,4. I really appreciated the excellent driving skills and clean and comfortable car. Great knows, sense of humour and manners. Great guide and good tours. Thank you murex and Sahid.

Tour with Asmat - The tour we took with Asmat was unforgettable! He drove very safely, he took photos of us the whole time and was a lot of fun in general. When a local invited us to see his camels, Asmat translated for us and was very flexible about the situation. The highlight of the day was when the sun set perfectly above the Richard Serra monuments. Perfect timing!
