Yam Gautam was our guide for the evening, and we had a wonderful time. The car was very clean and comfortable. He showed us all the important sights in Doha, and the dhow boat ride was a highlight. We also enjoyed a walking tour in some areas, and Yam kindly took plenty of photos for us. I highly recommend this tour, especially if you’re short on time. We had just two days in Doha, and this half-day tour was the perfect way to see the city’s main attractions.

We had an excellent tour. Puskar, our guide, was very attentive and very knowledgeable on how Doha has developed and the future plans. We learnt a lot about Qatar. It was a very hot day and Puskar brought a lot of water and umbrellas for shade. In 4 hours we saw the best things to see in and around Doha; had a Dhow boat ride; and visited Souk Waqif and a beautiful mosque. There were many highlights.
