3 Amazing hours in the dunes during a layover.

Had a 6 hour layover, landing at 5am. They hooked me up with a private Dune bashing tour for $150 on no advance notice. Picked me up at 6 and back to the airport 3.5 hrs later so I could make my connection. Sajid was my guide. He was amazing. I did the optional buggy excursion for 30 minutes also. It was decent but the real deal was bashing the dunes in the Land Rover with Sajid. Way beyond my expectations. Maybe it’s because it was so early but we were the only car out there. Landscape was spectacular and the ascents and descents were way beyond what I expected. Definite must do if you have a long layover.

Great Desert Experience

We had a wonderful time, our guide Mohammed was excellent and very informative generally about Doha, our trip and life there. We were a bit surprised the Dune Bashing cost extra. It was great to have the private tour.

Operator response

We sincerely appreciate your positive feedback regarding your experience with Mohammed in Doha. We are delighted he provided excellent and informative service. We regret any surprise concerning the separate cost for Dune Bashing, as this activity is typically an optional add-on to our standard tours. We will ensure this is communicated more clearly moving forward. Thank you for your valuable input.
