FIRST-CLASS | TAILOR-MADE: Explore the city and desert on this trip to Qatar. Start in Doha, where you'll explore Souq Waqif and tour the futuristic city lit up at night. Then connect to Regency Sealine Camp outside the city for a two-night desert safari, with luxury tent accommodations and adventure activities on the dunes.
This 6-day Qatar vacation takes you to Doha, the Qatari capital, before you head to a desert camp for a couple nights in the Arabian desert. It features first-class accommodations and a mix of private and shared tours.
Your trip to Qatar begins in Doha, a city on the rise, which is constantly reinventing itself with a rapidly-rising skyline and impressive array of cultural events. Experience the city as it was before the oil boom with a private tour of Souq Waqif. Explore the labyrinthine markets with a local guide and try local drinks and snacks in the midst of some shopping. That evening, head on a tour that showcases the city lit up at night. Start at the beautiful Museum of Islamic Art on the Corniche, continue to the Katara Cultural Village and the manmade island of The Pearl-Qatar, before returning to Souq Waqif for a three-course dinner.
Connect an hour outside Doha to the Regency Sealine Camp, which will be your oasis home in the desert for 2 nights. This luxury camp offers sustainable tourism in the Arabian desert. Enjoy luxury tent accommodations with all the amenities of a hotel while having unfettered access to the sand dunes and magnificent landscape. Spend your days riding quad bikes or beach buggies along the dunes, paragliding over the desert, or doing some good old-fashioned dune bashing. At the end of each day, retire to the camp for gourmet meals and refreshment in your air-conditioned tent.
At the end of your Qatar tour, connect to the airport in Doha for onward travels.
