Great overview of Doha

Farhan was a wonderful guide. Lots of communication before our tour and more suggestions after about places to visit in Doha.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Thank you for your feedback Marty! It's great to know that you enjoyed your tour of Doha with Farhan and look forward to organizing another Lokafy tour for your next trip!

Flexible, in-depth and educational

Patrice_T, Dec 2022

A big thank you to our tour guide! Getting a private tour guide is completely worth it as you get to customization and flexibility. In addition, I got to ask more in-depth and sometimes more sensitive questions on Qatar ranging from everything from political, religious and social matters. It was a truly a great learning experience. Highly recommended. Do note to wear comfortable walking shoes.

Excellent

Tour guide was great , informative , very specific to what I wanted to see. Took time didn’t rush , was on time , funny which made the tour seem like not being with a guide but more like a friend .
