What To Expect
Souq Waqif
Souq Waqif is a vibrant traditional marketplace located in the heart of Doha, Qatar. It’s one of the city's most iconic cultural and historical landmarks, known for its authentic Arabian atmosphere, narrow alleyways, and bustling energy. Traditional Architecture: The souq has been carefully restored to reflect the traditional Qatari style, with mud-rendered buildings, wooden beams, and beautifully decorated facades. Shops & Stalls: You'll find vendors selling a wide range of goods—spices, perfumes, textiles, traditional garments, souvenirs, antiques, and handmade crafts. Falcon Souq: A unique part of the market dedicated to falconry, where you can see and even handle these prized birds. Souq Waqif is also a food destination, offering everything from Qatari and Middle Eastern cuisine to international dishes, in open-air cafés and elegant restaurants. Cultural Events: The souq often hosts festivals, street performances, and art exhibits, especially during national holidays.
National Museum of Qatar
Visit The National Museum of Qatar (NMoQ) is one of Doha’s most iconic landmarks, designed by world-famous architect Jean Nouvel, inspired by the shape of a desert rose. Opened in 2019, this stunning architectural masterpiece celebrates Qatar’s rich history, culture, and future vision. Inside, visitors embark on a journey through time — from the country’s natural history and Bedouin traditions to the discovery of oil and Qatar’s rapid modern transformation. The museum’s immersive galleries combine films, artifacts, and interactive displays, bringing Qatar’s story to life in a captivating way. Located along the Doha Corniche, the museum also houses a beautiful lagoon, heritage palace of Sheikh Abdullah bin Jassim Al Thani, a gift shop, and a café offering breathtaking views of the futuristic Doha skyline.

2.00Big disappointment, nothing really to see at Katara or Pearl Island, Ismail just sat in the car l expected him to show us around at each stop, and didn't really explain what there was to see. No return time was given so lots of time wasted waiting for the rest of the group to return. At this point l was considering quitting the tour as not what l'd paid for. When we got to the museum told 45 mins left but then told need 3hrs to see it!! However Ismail did sort out a mess up with my booking on the boat trip to make sure this happened after several phone calls. Rating would be 1 star without this. Save your money and book a different tour

2.00Positives - Ismail helped out when there was an issue with Dhow cruise part of the tour and made sure this happened after several phone calls. Souk was worth visiting. Negative - Katara village was a waste of time nothing but closed restaurants and nothing to see, during this time Ismail just waited in the car, same with pearl island. Also little information was given about those 2 places. Car was cramped with only tiny seats in the back which were difficult to get in and out. Would 1 star without Dhow cruise supp

5.00⸻ We had an incredible Doha city tour with Emraan! He did an amazing job—extremely friendly, interactive, and knowledgeable. In just a short time, we managed to see so many of Doha’s main attractions, and the tour flowed perfectly. We ended the evening with a beautiful boat dinner overlooking the stunning Doha skyline. The food was a solid 10/10! Emraan also takes great photos, capturing the best moments of our trip. I would definitely rebook with him on my next visit. Highly recommend!
