Ready to unravel the mysteries of the desert? Looking for a relaxing drive around the city? Arabian Adventures is the no.1 ranking tour guide operating in Qatar. Now carrying more than 5,000 passengers each year, it started off in 1987 by a freelance tour operator named Hassan Hijji. Its experienced staff and modern vehicles offer professional services to cater to every whim of its passengers while staying within their budgets.
The desert, with its soft and warm sand stretching out into the horizon to join the wide expanse of blue sky is one of Qatar’s main attractions. Covering large areas of land this experience one should not miss. Arabian Adventures offer half-day tours, full day tours and even overnight desert safaris. One can choose between a rocky bumpy ride and a smooth drive over the yellow sand dunes in their 4 WD vehicles driven by well experienced Qatari guides. For the more adventurous, a night spent in the cool isolated darkness of the desert, surrounded by the scrumptious smell of a roasting barbecue in one of their Bedouin style tents, equipped with modern necessities but retaining its traditional aura is an experience like no other.
They also offer a drive around Doha, Qatar’s capital city, a sightseeing expedition that covers all major locations of the city in a comfortable vehicle accompanied by skilled tour guides. Another tour Arabian Adventures offer away from the norm is the cruise in a traditional wooden dhow on the tranquil waters of the Arabian Gulf. One can simply relax aboard the dhow with a shisha for company while enjoying the panoramic view of the Doha skyline, dance to the seductive tunes of Arabian music or wade into the blue waters and work a tan on the beaches of Saflia Island. A visit to Shahaniyah, the largest herd of Oryx in their natural habitat can be followed with a visit to the camel races and a ride on these traditional desert vehicles top off the Heritage tour with a traditional cup of Arabian tea or coffee. One is transported back in time during the tour of northern Qatar, an expedition through the remnants of the old cities include a stop at the beaches of Al Khor, a picturesque location sought after by tourists.
