Great experience - We had a great tour with Anwar into the desert for dune bike, sand board and Camel riding including a brilliant sunset. He was very professional and took some great photos of our experiences.
We are a family traveling with our two daughters.
We would highly recommend Gulf Desert Rose and Anwar.

Unforgettable Private Desert Safari – Ask for Ali! - My partner and I booked the Doha Half-Day Desert Safari: Dune Bashing, Camel Ride & Sand-boarding as a private, sunset-timed outing, and guide Ali turned it into the highlight of our entire trip.
From the second he pulled up in his immaculate Land Cruiser, Ali’s focus on safety and comfort was crystal-clear: quick seat-belt and tyre-pressure checks, an easy briefing on what the dunes would feel like, and sincere “thumbs-up?” pauses throughout the drive to be sure we were happy with the pace. That balance of adrenaline and control let us scream with laughter on the steep drop-offs while never once feeling uneasy.
Because it was just the two of us, Ali shaped every stop around our idea of a romantic afternoon. He timed the transition from roller-coaster dune bashing to serene shoreline exactly as the sun began to blush over the Inland Sea, so our first view was bathed in that dreamy golden light photographers chase for years. Then he became the photographer: kneeling for low-angle shots, guiding us into playful silhouettes, even framing a perfect reflection of us in the wet sand.
The cultural touches felt equally personal. At the camel camp he showed us how to hold the rope gently so the camel rises in rhythm with you—surprisingly graceful when you know the trick—and snapped candid photos that capture the goofy grin I didn’t realize was on my face. A falconer was there as well, and with Ali translating we learned why Qatari falcons are so prized before I donned the leather glove and felt that feather-light weight settle on my arm. The moment is frozen forever in another of Ali’s sunset masterpieces.
Logistics were flawless: pickup to the minute, no waiting around at any stop, and we rolled back into Doha precisely on schedule—yet we never felt rushed. That kind of timing magic meant we squeezed every drop of romance out of the desert without glancing at our watches once.
If you dream of a tailor-made, utterly safe, photo-perfect desert adventure—whether it’s a romantic escape like ours or any other special occasion—do yourself a favor and request Ali by name. He doesn’t just drive the dunes; he choreographs memories.

Amazing Doha Stopover Experience - I had a very nice experience. We went for desert safari, inland sea, sunset, camel and falcons sightings. I would highly recommend Gulf desert Rose tours. I thoroughly enjoyed the tour would definitely recommend them. They had also helped with getting great pictures. I had a very good stopover experience in Doha.

Great Desert Safari dune bashing - This was an exciting tour to go on. Our driver/ tour guide was Shaji and he was great. He pays attention to who his passengers are. My wife is more outing then me. He made sure she was having a blast going over the sand dunes and me who liked to close my eyes once in awhile. He always made sure we were both happy. His driving skills were excellent. he took us to some of the most beautiful place on the sand dunes. He was very knowledgeable and very good spoken English. Over all I was very satisfied with this tour and would recommend it to anyone.

Great experience! - We had an unforgettable experience on the Doha private Desert Safari! From start to finish, everything was incredibly well organized. Ali, our driver and guide, was not only friendly and welcoming but also extremely knowledgeable about the region and its history. Most importantly, we always felt completely safe with him behind the wheel while driving in the dunes. Highly recommend this tour, you’re in excellent hands!

Desert thrills and serene sea views - An unforgettable experience from start to finish! Our driver was amazing — skilled, friendly, and made us feel safe throughout the thrilling dune-bashing ride. The views on the way to the Inland Sea were breathtaking, where the desert meets the ocean — truly a sight to see. We also enjoyed a peaceful camel ride, adding a traditional touch to the adventure. Everything was perfectly organized and on time. Highly recommend this tour — and a big thank you to our fantastic driver for making it even more special!
