Fantastic tour into the desert to visit Zekreet, Mushroom Rock Formation and Richard Serra Sculpture. We booked a private tour and were able to arrange our own time to depart which was a bonus.
Our guide Rehan Butt was so knowledgeable and certainly enhanced my family’s experience. I can recommend both the tour and Rehan.

Rehan our tour guide is professional in what he does - polite, friendly, got tons of knowledge about Doha in general. He arrived early to pick me up in the hotel. I am mesmerized by the limestone formation in Zekreet. Richard Serra sculpture is also beautiful even with his minimalist approach (though a bit distant from from main road. The only thing I'm a bit disappointed is that this tour didn't include the fort located on top of the limestone formation which I was anticipating a lot to see and later on known that it's located in Ras Abrouq.

Easy pick up from my hotel. Interesting stories about Qatar from our guide Noor. Good hospitality. Peaceful sights snd sunset in west of qatar. Very much worth it! Great afternoon

Syed Noor, the tour guide, was very nice and knowledgeable about what we were visiting.
The Richard Serra was my main interest for that tour and it is really worth the trip, quite a unique and beautiful art installation,

The tour was exactly as described. Our driver guide, Abdul Rehman, spoke excellent English and provided interesting information about the places we visited. He arrived at our hotel exactly on time. He was an excellent and careful driver. We felt safe with Abdul behind the wheel of his very comfortable Vehicle. We would recommend Abdul Rehman

Beautiful landscape explained by our knowledgeable guide Abdullah. He was very attentive and show us everything, plus took very nice pictures of my husband and me.

Thoroughly enjoyable experience in Doha - and one of the most enjoyable of the entire holiday. Left at 6am and saw camel racing, Zekreet and the Richard Serra art. Had Sajid as a guide who was knowledgeable and made the trip engaging. Would recommend
ANNA_K, Dec 2023
Pretty cool experience to see the formations and the statues. The trip takes about 3-4 hours to drive from one side of Qatar to the other!
Natasja_M, Nov 2023
Nice and relaxed private tour. Good to see more of Qatar than only the big city. We had a very good driver who take enough time to show us the beautiful inland’s of Qatar.
Alexis_B, Oct 2023
A perfect short tour of the West of Qatar with Shabir. We were able to easily customize the timing and tour to my preferences, especially to get to see the Serra Installation at sunset. Shabir was an excellent guide and driver, and he even took much better photos with my iPhone than I could! Thank you for a lovely afternoon / early evening visit.
Anta_D, Oct 2023
I liked every moment of the tour. Especially Zekreet and the historical part and the camels. I also like the calm way in which the tour was presented

Our guide Ali was very nice, personable, accommodating and communicative (via WhatsApp). While we drove to the sites he talked to us a bit about his life in Doha and the history of the Qatar. At each site he took photos for us and made sure that everyone was safe. (Note: Film City was shut down so was not part of the tour -- unsure if it's still closed or if it's been reopened.) After the tour Ali recommended some good places for us to eat lunch in the city and he drove us straight there. Highly recommended!
Zia_M, Apr 2022
Ali, our tour guide, was not only informative about the country and its history, but his tour of western Qatar was able to show us some of the hidden gems found out West. He spoke clear English, Arabic, and Urdu/Hindi and was able to shed light on some of the facts surrounding the sights. Overall a great experience, thanks Ali!
Ivan_V, Mar 2022
Great experience! Our host Ali showed us very beautiful places and we had a great afternoon! We highly recommend this tour! Thank you!

Khalid was an amazing guide! He really made the trip fun and taught us a lot about the local culture. We loved seeing the Richard Serra sculpture right at sunrise, climbing up rock formations, and seeing more camels than we’d ever seen (and watching them run!) at the racetrack. We even stopped along the way for some delicious Karak which was a perfect start to the day. We never felt rushed and had plenty of time to take pictures and explore the desert. Our goal was to see a part of Qatar beyond Doha and get off the beaten track, and this West Coast tour did exactly that. I highly recommend. I also recommend going directly to Qatar Golden Adventures for booking, as Viator itself made it very difficult to confirm the trip details (ended up confirming through the live chat feature on the tour operator’s website the night before). So, give Viator a pass, but definitely do this tour with Qatar Golden Adventures and Khalid!

Muhamed was super, very friendly and informative. Always happy to. He knew a lot and he went into everyone.

Noor is an excellent guide and gives interesting explanations about the history of Qatar and its West Coast. Very nice excursion to Western Qatar.

I did the activity with the guide Muhammad, who drove very well, passed a lot of interesting information and had a lot of patience with me, since I am one of those people who likes to take a lot of photos and ends up making the tour longer.

Unser Fahrer hat uns am Cruise Terminal abgeholt. Wir gaben faszinierende Felsformationen gesehen. Auch die Skulpturen von Richard Serra waren spektakulär.
