Al Khor é uma cidade costeira no norte do Catar, localizada a 50 quilômetros ao norte da capital, Doha. Al Khor era governado pelos Al Muhannadi, uma tribo que consiste em várias famílias beduínas. O porto de Al Khor, o centro do país para mergulho e pesca de pérolas nos velhos tempos.
Está intimamente ligado à cidade de Al Khor, ambos fundados pela tribo Al Muhannadi. Como outros assentamentos costeiros da região, seus habitantes historicamente dependiam apenas da extração de pérolas e da pesca para seu sustento. Juntamente com a cidade de Al Khor, cerca de 1.392 hectares de manguezais são encontrados ao largo da costa, tornando o litoral entre Al Thakhira e a cidade de Al Khor o habitat de mangue mais densamente povoado do Catar. AL THAKIRA MANGROVE FOREST está entre as maiores e mais antigas florestas do Catar.
Al Zubara Fort é uma histórica fortaleza militar do Catar construída sob a supervisão do Sheikh Abdullah bin Jassim Al Thani em 1938. Este forte do século 20 é a característica mais jovem e mais proeminente do Sítio Arqueológico Al Zubarah, um Patrimônio Mundial da UNESCO.Um exemplo intocado de um típico forte árabe, suas paredes de um metro de espessura repeliram invasores e ajudaram a manter os quartos frescos durante a verão quente. O forte, que está incluído na Lista do Patrimônio Mundial da UNESCO em reconhecimento por sua preservação e como um exemplo único de um período formativo, é o lugar perfeito para os fãs da história do Oriente Médio aprenderem mais sobre a vida militar no Catar nos dias 18 e 19 séculos.
Na costa noroeste do Qatar encontra-se a pequena aldeia tradicional de Al Jumail. Era uma vez habitada pela família Al Kubaisi, e até hoje é um destino favorito de fim de semana para famílias locais, pois representa sua herança, história e raízes ancestrais. A aldeia compreende um conjunto de importantes edifícios tradicionais, incluindo uma pequena mesquita com seu minarete ainda intacto. Esta aldeia remonta ao início do século XIX e ainda era habitada até meados do século XX.

Brilliant afternoon with Zubair going north from Doha on a boiling summer day. Well planned and organized itinerary, very good vehicle and attentive, knowledgeable and zen guide/driver. Highly recommended if you have some time and want to get out of Doha.
We contacted Qatar International Tours from our hometown (Munich, Germany) by email to arrange a trip through the north of Qatar. Communication was easy, replies were very fast, and we received a great offer, which we paid before traveling. Once in Qatar, we stayed in touch via WhatsApp to organize meeting points and schedules. Everything went smoothly and effortlessly. We were picked up at our hotel in central Qatar and started our tour at 8:30 a.m. Our first stop was Al Khor, where we visited the fish market and went kayaking in the young mangroves that are now growing in Qatar. The boats were safe and family-friendly, making the experience easy and enjoyable for everyone. Our tour guide, Mr. Prakash, knew the best timing, so we went at high tide, which allowed us to see the mangroves’ famous highlights: fish breeding grounds, colorful birds, and more. We had a small hiccup, we forgot our change of clothes at the hotel—but Mr. Prakash took us to a mall so we could buy dry clothes, turning it into a fun little adventure. Lunch at an Arabian restaurant was amazing, so many flavors, and truly delicious! Afterward, we visited the UNESCO World Heritage sites and returned to our hotel around 6 p.m. We are especially grateful to Mr. Prakash, who shared so much knowledge about Qatar, its history, and how life works in a country where people from so many different nations live together. Thank you so much for your kindness and hospitality.
Thank you for the feedback
Zubair was a fantastic guide! We spent enough time at each of the destinations and took plenty of photos. We got to ask lots of questions about all things Qatar!
It was a great experience with Adventure Time Tourism. I had the pleasure of the tour arrangement with Mehti for sales and Abdul Sattar as the driver. Both gentlemen were very accommodating, hospitable and professional. With a special request, they allowed the addition of one location to the tour with a fee, as well as change the drop off location so I can continue with my own exploring of Qatar. The driver Abdul was very good. He spoke very clearly and well, and his driving was so comfortable that I napped easily while commuting between tour sites. Well done!! Have faith and book your tours with this company!

Great tour of the north. Private so on your own terms. Zubair was informative and patient with my many questions and time at the site. It’s a great tour. Only downside is that I visited Qatar in summer- go a different time of year of your schedule allows when it is cooler. The fort and archeological site was amazing!!!
Great tour - Mohammed was very informative. Was good to see lots of history of Qatar. I would definitely recommend. The Fort was very interesting.
Excellent tour with Nawaz. He was a very good driver and guide and looked after us so well on a very hot day. The cold water was appreciated very much.
