  • Fondest Memory: Even though this wasn't around Doha it was one of my most memorable times while I was in Qatar. I took for granted all the desert and lack of trees around the outskirts of the manicured cities. But there is a distinct beauty to the dunes that border the Gulf shoreline. They are beautiful and worth the visit.

  • Fondest Memory: I was very reluctant at first to participate in an activity like this. I had no real desire to do it. But after we got going it was a lot of fun. We all tried our best not to get stuck or to flip over--unless it was intentional. It really was a lot of fun and we were the envy of our entire group.

    General Tips: Souq wandering

  • Favorite Thing: The new souq area has really been built up to represent an old nostalgia of what Doha used to be like. I have really enjoyed exploring some of the areas around the souqs and see what new shops have developed and others as they change.

     I've been told that each of the three is similar, but differing styles. I like the one in the middle. Great views of the bay during the evening, as well.
