5.00Shahid was an excellent driver and guide.i did a city tour thank to the transit/layover at Doha international airport. We started with the pickup at 4am at the airport and he was on time and very customer oriented. We visited everything was agreed and on the time available. It was a pleasure to make the tour with him. I would like to do other tours with him, if I will be back to Qatar. I recommend him.

5.00My friends and I had an amazing time touring the major attractions in Doha. From visiting multiple museums, to the Souq Waqif, to the FIFA stadium area, to the beautiful photographic landmarks and luxury stores, to the breath taking Inland Sea where the sea enters the desert. AMAZING!!! Our tour guide was Anwar. Anwar was such a gentleman, informative and patient while we took our time taking in the beauty of Doha. He also acted as our photographer helping us document our beautiful memories. This tour was a 10/10!!!

5.00Sajid was our guide during our layover in Doha. He met us in the airport and took us on an amazing tour of the city. We saw the waterfront, the Souq Waqif, the marble amphitheater, the air conditioned outdoor streets of Katara, the Blue Mosque, and Pearl Island. Sajid even took us to see the falcons in the market. He was an incredible guide. And we truly enjoyed our time with him. He even laughed at my jokes. Thank you, Sajid. - Spencer from Dallas, Texas.
