5.00Guide made me feel extremely comfortable going on an unexpected solo tour. He was able to work with me and reschedule due to a 3 hour flight delay. I was hesitant with the tour starting at 8p but everything went very well. I also learned alot about the city.
A very vibrant city!

5.00We booked this tour because we had an 11-hours long connection time between flights in Doha, and we were very glad we did! The guide was excellent -- courteous, friendly and best of all, well informed. He gave us a great introduction to what appeared to be a very beautiful and lively city.

5.00We got a great tour with Sudarshan! Basically all we wanted for a quick highlights tour on our layover. Took us to some of the main attractions, photo stops, and walked us around the main souq. Made sure we were comfortable and gave us lots of information!
Well worth it!

5.00I truly enjoyed my Qatar night tour with Prakash and Sanjay. Prakash was professional, very knowledgeable, and shared so much insight about the country’s history and culture. The itinerary was well planned, covering highlights like Souq Waqif, Katara, and the stunning skyline views of West Bay. Everything was smooth and comfortable, and I felt I experienced both the traditional and modern sides of Qatar in just one evening. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Doha!

5.00I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the wonderful experience I had during the individual tour of Doha, guided by the incredible Sudarshan. It was a memorable journey, full of discoveries, learning and unique moments. The way Sudarshan conducted the tour — always with kindness, attention and deep knowledge of the local culture, history and curiosities — made all the difference. I had the opportunity to get to know from the most iconic sights to less-known, but equally charming places. All in my time, with freedom to enjoy each stop to the fullest. Thank you, Sudarshan, for making my day in Doha so special. I carry with me not only beautiful memories of the city, but also the affection and professionalism of a guide who loves what he does. With gratitude, Carla.

5.00I toured Doha with Yam as I had a 9 hour layover. Yam was there early to pick me up and was super communicative, I knew exactly how and where to find him at the airport. The tour was fantastic, it made me with I was vacationing in Qatar longer. Yam was professional, fun, and knowledgeable. I learned so much about Qatar and its culture, and I got great pictures and memories out of this trip as well. Definitely recommend.
