⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A romantic and unforgettable experience in Doha
We had a truly wonderful experience with the dhow cruise with dinner on board, a perfect way to discover Doha in the evening in a romantic and relaxing atmosphere.
Sailing along the Corniche and in front of the illuminated West Bay skyline was simply spectacular. Seeing the city from the sea offers unique emotions, with stunning lights, reflections, and breathtaking views.
The dinner on board was well prepared and enjoyable, with tasty dishes served in an elegant and calm setting, accompanied by soft music that made the evening even more charming.
The crew was kind, professional, and always helpful, contributing to a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere. Everything was well organized and unhurried, allowing us to fully enjoy every moment.
A romantic and well-organized experience, ideal for couples as well as families, and highly recommended for anyone who wants to experience Doha from a different and fascinating perspective.
🔝 Highly recommended!

It was a great cruise. I would recommend it. It was cool at night, but it was still a great experience.

We were fortunate to take a Ramadan evening cruise lead by Moazzam. Super friendly staff, beautiful relaxing ride on a traditional boat, and better food than our 5-star hotel! Moazzam and team were wonderful- they catered to everything we needed and even took photos for us! A must do when in Doha!

Chilled and relaxing experience. What a beautiful way to see Doha all lit up from the water.
Food was amazing - crew on borrad were friendly and attentive. Traditional boat was nice, 2 seating areas, the top had the best views. Lover the experience - great way to relax after a busy day

Currently on this cruise right now- weather is not too hot and perfect serene night views. Moazzam brother was such a calm cool and collected host. The other party couldn’t make it and so it really felt like a private cruise, and he helped take lots of candid pictures of my husband and I. We also did the BBQ Dinner and it was delicious, so much food, and felt like having a meal with a family member. Overall for my short stay in Doha, this was a great activity and I would recommend it to anyone who is short on time and looking to get stunning views (and a mini history lesson) on the city of Doha!

If you travel in winter then this activity required a jersey, jacket and ear covers, its freezing on the water at night with an ice wind. Limited seating in the indoor section. No blankets provided. The food was excellent, staff were really really nice, the sightseeing was totally worth the ride

No one should miss this. Super friendly crew and amazing views. Really nice experience and delicious food 😋

Moazzam was so friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable. Had a great time on the ride throughout. Even let me honk the horn haha.

During the Dow ride you get close to the Doha skyline at night, which is hard to photograph from further away due to haze. Very nice staff. Food perfectly fine, samosa, kebab and hummus, salads, soft drinks. Pricewise, the excursion is fine.
Please note: You drive quite a bit out into the bay, I've unfortunately become a bit seasick.

Ich habe schon viele Touren mit Viator gemacht. Auch jetzt in Katar, aber diese Tour war das aller aller letzte und dann noch für diesen enormen Preis. Eigentlich entspricht diese Tour einer Bewertung von 0 Sternen. Reiseleiter hat 5 Sätze "erklärt". Er hat uns mit einer Kühlbox Getränke auf einem miserablen Holzboot abgesetzt. Ist nicht mal mitgefahren. Auf dem Boot lagen Bretter usw. rum. Die absoluten Unfallquellen. Bootfügrer haben nach Zigarette gebettelt und Musik so laut aufgedreht, das eine Unterhaltung untereinander kaum möglich war. Noch vor dem Dunkel werden, war die Bootsfahrt zu ende. Also beleuchtete Skyline vom Ufer aus und nicht vom Wasser! Wenn wir uns nicht noch einen Kaffee gekauft hätten, wären wir schon 17.30 Uhr im Hotel gewesen, nach nur 1,5 Stunden inkl. Fahrt von und wieder zum Hotel. Ganz toll und dafür fast 250 €.
