A grand introduction to Doha - Lika and her friend Sadiq provided us with a fantastic introduction to Doha! She is absolutely passionate about sharing her city, her country and her knowledge with visitors. In just 4 hours we traveled from modern Doha to it's foundation and storied past. With Sadiq safely driving us to Lika's dialogue we felt safe wherever we went. Normally we don't write reviews of our travels but Lika is remarkably good and deserves the accolades that led us to choosing her to be our personal guide Thanks Lika!!

Awesome - This was a compact and informative tour and money well spent. We had 8 hours in Doha on our way to Thailand. We could have spent our time in the airport lounge but this was definitely more valuable. We were two adults with two teenage sons and our ten your old daughter. We were all engaged in learning about the history, royalty, culture, politics, traditions, religions, demographics, geography, topography, food and art and architecture of the people of Qatar. This was whilst being driven around in the comfort of an air conditioned Land Cruiser, with very timely stop offs for photos. Thanks to Arshad for organising and Sadiq for showing us this beautiful city. We now feel like we’ve had two proper holidays in one.

Great Day Tour - Had a wonderful day tour of Doha. Started in the morning with a desert tour with Ibrahim, followed by a city tour with Lika. Both were very knowledgeable, forthcoming and friendly. Would highly recommend.

A day in Doha - We had a great time with Ibrahim. He brought us all around the city and stopped at perfect locations for pictures. He gave us so much historical and cultural information as well. We were even able to visit a mosque and learned about that as well. He also gave us great recommendations for dinner in souq wakif and tips for haggling in the souq that were spot on and a highlight of the day. Highly recommend this tour.

Phenomenal! - The whole experience was honestly phenomenal. I had a stopover from midnight to 8am and was keen to get out but nervous as a solo. Booking with Arshad was easy and communication (via WhatsApp) was excellent. My guide was Ibrahim, a very knowledgeable and personable guy and I had a great time seeing all the essentials of Doho. He was my guide, driver and photographer lol! Even at 3am it was remarkably active with people out and about and food places open. Everywhere we went was clean and safe. We got back to the airport with heaps of time to spare and I had no issues getting airside. I cannot recommend the midnight tour more highly. Just do it!

Midnight tour - I did the midnight tour here on a layover. While there wasn’t a lot open, the tour guide was awesome and I got to see the architecture of Doha. The skyline of the city was beautiful. It also was a lot cooler than I thought it would be. Would definitely recommend if you had 8 hours+ layover in Doha.

Amazing evening tour with great company - I would like to thank my tour guide faisal for an amazing day in the beautiful city of doha . His warm and friendly demeanor created a welcoming environment, allowing us to feel comfortable and engaged throughout the tour. We truly appreciate the extra efforts he made to ensure our questions were answered and our interests were catered too. Highly recommend faisal to anyone visiting Doha in future.

Could have easily been done better - We were a group of 5. Me and my teenage and adult children. The guide was friendly, however I expected more personal involvement form the guide than just being a driver of the car who tells you names of the buildings. I could have rent an Uber for this as well. We were driven through the major parts of Doha and let out of the car to walk around. The guide never came with us or explained anything. He was just waiting in the car for us to return back. The tour ended after 3 hours and not four (which we paid for) as we did the Souq Waqif at the end. He dropped us there pointed out a restaurant we should go, that was it. No stories, no explanation not accompanying us ... . It felt like he is doing us a favor driving us around. He also only spoke to me, never addressing my kids. Rethinking all that, giving 3 stars is actually a lot. This could have been easily done so much better with more personal touch.
