Things to Do  

Sand Dunes

Sand Dunes, Qatar

 7 Reviews  Wow, it was just so fun!! You can ride a camel then you go to the desert on 4WD !! My driver was a crazy Arab guy and it was just soooooo thrilling!! Could go and see the beautiful beach, across the water was Saudi Arabia and Dubai.. Just great experience! I booked this tour through Regency... 

Sea side and Beaches

Sea side and Beaches, Qatar

 5 Reviews  Qatar is a peninsula, connected at the south to Saudi Arabia and featuring 350 miles of coastline that mark its eastern, northern and western boundaries. In addition to the peninsula, Qatar has several islands including Halul, Sharauah, Al-Bashiriya, Al-Asahat, Al-Safiliya and Al-Aliya islands.... 

Hotels  

Four Seasons Hotel

 5 Reviews and 261 Opinions  I tried booking a room for a couple of days but the hotel was fully booked because of the “Eid... 

Movenpick Hotel Doha

 7 Reviews and 126 Opinions  We chose this 26-storey tower hotel for the price - there was a special offer for 600 rials - which... 

Inter-Continental Doha

 4 Reviews and 220 Opinions  Was here for about a month and found the staff outstanding. You'd be hard pushed to be disappointed... 

Restaurants  

Ponderosa

Ponderosa, Qatar

 3 Reviews  My cousin and her husband and sitting and enjoying their dinner. Please note that it is Must for every women to cover herself whenever she is in public places so, in this picture my cousin is covering herself fully in the black dress to follow the strict rules of Qatari Government. 

Nightlife  

Admirals Club - Ritz Carlton

Admirals Club - Ritz Carlton, Qatar

 2 Reviews  I am a regular at Admirals and I thoroughly enjoy every visit! As a newcomer to Doha a year ago, I visited Admirals, and I was pleasantly surprised by the hospitality. At first, I was dubious about going to an Arabian themed bar/club. I was totally blown away by people's kindness and generosity. My... 

Transportation  

Travelling by Air

Travelling by Air, Qatar

 19 Reviews  Doha International Airport is the hub of one of the world's best airlines, but the airport itself is no 5-star masterpiece. I have flown in and out of Doha about a dozen times or more, and my experiences have been disappointing. After landing, we had to walk down steps off the plane instead of... 

Shopping  

The City Centre Shopping Complex

The City Centre Shopping Complex, Qatar

 7 Reviews  The City Centre is the biggest shopping mall in Qatar. Here you will find almost everything you are looking for. Most things are not really that much cheaper in Qatar, than it is in Europe, so finding a great deal is not that easy in this modern shopping center. I use to just walk around, look at... 

LuLu Super Market

LuLu Super Market, Qatar

 2 Reviews  My cousin told me that this Wood is very special (like Sandal) and Qatari People always burn it in their houses to make their house full of lovely smell. I think this is something very much local. Must buy it.  

Local Customs  

Qatari Dress

Qatari Dress, Qatar

 4 Reviews  In Qatar you will probably see some expat residents wearing anything from shorts to spagetti-strap tops. While most likely no Qatari will ever tell you that you shouldn't be wearing this, that does not mean that they don't take offense to it. Consider what the Qataris themselves wear - both men... 

Warnings and Dangers  

Driving and Traffic

Driving and Traffic, Qatar

 6 Reviews  While cruising the highway (from Ras Laffan to Doha), we normally drive at 120 kph since this is the maximum speed limit allowed in the highway. But you will always be surprised that there will be an overspeeding vehicles that will overtake you (maybe cruising at 150kph or more). Just be careful and... 

Islamic Law or Sharia

Islamic Law or Sharia, Qatar

 2 Reviews  From what I was told in Doha, crime is minimal. This is not entirely due to the existence of Sharia (Islamic) law, which in Qatar is applied only to Muslims anyway (as distinct from Saudi Arabia, where it applies to all in the kingdom). There are other factors, such as the fact that most Qataris are... 

Sports & Outdoors  

Sand Sports

Sand Sports, Qatar

 1 Review  I saw these dessert bikers when i visited the Sealine Beach Resort. So, if u love to do the same as well. Then Qatar could be an ideal place to go. The equipment can borrowed from Sealine Beach Resort. 

Favorites  

Boring Country

Boring Country, Qatar

 2 Reviews  I don't think there is much you should do here other than pick another country which is more fun to visit. I don't think I have many. Just some of the people I met while I was here and the warm water at the beach.
