The City Tour assumes four stops at attractive tourist locations: at the Souq Waqif bazaar, at the Dhow Harbour, in the Katara Cultural Village and in the Pearl. These are of course the most popular places among tourists, so it's hard to look for the real spirit of Qatar in them. However, we were the only trip to these points, so the tour was pleasant. We didn't go out sightseeing with the guide, because she talked about Doha on the way, while on site we had spare time to explore on our own. Of course, there was not much time, definitely not enough to be able to get to know the place better, but it is a time-limited trip, so be aware of that. The travel guide gave a lot of information about Qatar itself, its inhabitants and features of the capital, so you could learn some interesting things. While driving, we passed several famous buildings such as the stadium, a residence built for Princess Diana or the National Museum.

What to see during the trip?

A bit further there is the Museum of Islamic Art - a beautiful building combining traditional design with modernity. Unfortunately, the trip plan doesn't involve going inside and watching the exhibition.

Where to book the trip and how much does it cost?

You can also buy the trip at the airport. To do this, go to the Discover Qatar Transit Tour desk located towards Gate A4 and find out if there are seats available. The tour can only be paid in local currency or by card at the information desk.

Discover Qatar offers more trips, but they are longer and more expensive, which is why the three-hour tour option seems like the best option.

Is it worth it?

Although there was not much time for sightseeing, it is enough to get interested in Qatar and maybe even decide to come back there for longer?
