Overview

Skip the crowded group vans this desert safari is built around your group only, with the flexibility to choose Private or Shared depending on your budget. Blast across Qatar's golden dunes in a powerful 4x4 with an expert local driver, feel the rush of sandboarding down towering sand hills, and stop for unforgettable photos at scenic desert viewpoints along the way. The highlight of the journey is the stunning Inland Sea (Khor Al Udaid), where the desert dramatically meets the ocean and you can see the Saudi Arabia coastline in the distance a bucket-list photo opportunity found nowhere else in the region. Optional camel riding is available on-site for an authentic Bedouin touch. Relax with complimentary Arabic tea, coffee, and chilled bottled water throughout your 4-hour adventure, with hassle-free pickup and drop-off from your Doha hotel. Whether you're on a short layover or a full Qatar vacation, this is the desert experience travelers talk about long after they've gone home.
