This tour was a fantastic way to experience a different side of Qatar. The combination of history, nature, and stunning scenery made for an unforgettable day. Our guide, Abed, was exceptional. His knowledge of Qatar's history, culture, and traditions added so much to the experience, especially during our visit to Al Zubarah Fort. He brought the history of this UNESCO World Heritage Site to life and was always happy to answer our questions. The kayaking through the Purple Island mangroves was peaceful, beautiful, and unlike anything we had experienced before. We were fortunate to finish the day with a spectacular sunset, making the experience even more memorable. Abed was professional, friendly, and passionate about sharing his country. If you're looking to experience both the history and natural beauty of Qatar, I highly recommend this tour.
Our experience was really great! The organisation of the tour and the kayaking was very enjoyable. The guide we had was very knowledgeable and we enjoyed learning about the mangroves and purple island. We will recommend this experience to other people and I have another family member visiting me in Qatar in December and will book again so they can also enjoy this experience.
Kayaking in mangroves was like being in a calm, peaceful place. There were lots of green plants. . It felt good to finish something challenging. Mangrove kayaking was a short trip full of calm and fun.
From start to finish the experience was superb , google our guide was great fun and very professional in his briefing as well as constantly checking everything was ok during the trip. Due to tide height we couldn’t go through the channel but still the trip was super enjoyable!!! Can’t recommend it enough , great way to see a very different part of Qatar. Truly stunning.
Went out for a couple’s sunset kayak experience with bbq and it was very well organized. The guide explained the history of the Purple Island and the ecology of the area of the mangroves. Definitely coming back for a splendid sunset tour! The group was awesome!
