5.00This was the best tour we had in the Middle East! Puskar was AMAZING! Started the day off being picked up with water and the knowledge began immediately. Throughout the trip we learned so much and had a great time seeing the beautiful city of Doha. Highly recommend getting Puskar as your guide!
I would do it again

5.00We had a fantastic evening tour with our excellent guide, Puskar. Whether you have a long layover or you just want to get out and explore Doha with a knowledgeable guide, this tour is perfect. The suv was comfortable. He proved water. We got to learn and see Doha on a brief trip. Tip: line it up to do the boat ride after dark. The skyline is amazing at night.
Sudarshan is the Best!

5.00My wife and I did a tour of Doha and surrounding cities with Sudarshan and were simply blown away by his professionalism, knowledge, and thoughtfulness. He was able to give us a full immersion into the history and culture of Qatar in just four hours. Truthfully, we left wishing we had booked him for the entire day. What really makes Sudarshan special is how he brings every attraction to life. Not only does he point out landmarks, but he also tells a story behind each and every one in such a way that's really engaging, informative, and never boring. His passion for the history of Doha and its surroundings is contagious, and he has an incredible talent for keeping your full attention from start to finish. Another huge bonus is that Sudarshan absolutely loves photography, and it shows. Every photo he took of us was simply amazing. He captured moments and angles we would have never thought of, giving us beautiful memories to take home. We were also very appreciative of how accommodating and attentive he was to needs and requests during the tour. My wife is pregnant at present, and he handled every request—bathroom stops, extra breaks, and a quick bite—with complete patience and without sacrificing the flow of the tour. He never made us feel rushed, yet still managed to show us everything on the itinerary. If you're visiting Doha, do yourself a favor and request Sudarshan. He is worth every minute, and it's an experience you'll never forget. Highly, highly recommended!
Exactly what we needed !

5.00Yam gave us the perfect introduction to Doha, guiding us through the key historical and cultural sights of the city, with great warmth and interest. He covered so much in c.4 hours, but was also careful to give us time to wander by ourselves, answer our questions and give us his views. There’s nothing we’d suggest to change because it was an enjoyable tour in itself, it gave us a great platform for our few days in Doha, and confidence to revisit several areas in our own time (especially the Souq Waqif and Katara village/mall). Yam was also happy to drop us directly for our late lunch after the tour, which was a really nice final touch ! Outstanding, thank you 🙏 Andrew & Joanna
Great tour with Yam

5.00I had a wonderful experience on my Doha tour with Sudarshan as my guide. He was extremely attentive and made sure I was comfortable and hydrated throughout the day. His driving was smooth and safe, and he shared a wealth of knowledge about the city’s culture, history, and landmarks. What stood out most was his thoughtfulness: he gave great tips on how to make the most of my time in Doha after the tour and made sure every stop was enjoyable. I couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Highly recommend Sudarshan and this tour to anyone visiting Doha!
Must do if short on time in Doha!

5.00We had a fabulous time! Great communication on pick up and was there waiting for us. We were able to see all of the best spots in Doha. He gave us time to eat dinner and shop a bit on our own. Loved the boat ride and seeing the Doha skyline at night and then was dropped off at our hotel. This is a must do if you are short on time in Doha! Would definitely book again!

5.00Excellent tour. Super recommend. The Yam Gautam guide was fantastic. We showed Doha with a lot of patience, joy and knowledge. This tour is ideal for those who have little time to travel in the city that was our case. Yam took us to the main points and took several cool photos. He informed us about the places we visited and guided us with a lot of sympathy. I would definitely do the tour and more tours with Yam and Enterprise.
