15 Hours in Doha, Qatar

There’s plenty to see and experience if one has a mere 15 minutes in the capital of Qatar. Here are some of the most enjoyable ways to spend half a day in Doha city.

Explore Souq Waqif
Those who want to experience a crash course in Qatari culture should spend a few hours exploring the labyrinthine web of alleys at the Souq Waqif. As one of the most extensive and traditional retail spaces in the city, the exquisite architecture, the conventional wares for sale and the merchant shops allow visitors to truly experience local culture and enjoy a shopping spree at the same time. The venue is also home to a host of food stalls selling traditional sweets and other meals so one can also dine one’s way through this ancient marketplace.

Relax at the Doha Corniche
Tipped to be one of the most popular recreational hotspots in the city, the Corniche looks out over the breathtaking Doha Bay and is a seaside promenade lined with shops, food vendors and other leisure facilities. A trip to the Doha Corniche also allows visitors to pop by the Museum of Islamic Art which is situated nearby.

Tour the Al Zubarah Fort
Regardless of the time available, a tour of the iconic Al Zubarah Fort is a must for all first-time visitors. Located inside the Al Zubarah town which is one of Doha’s best known UNESCO World Heritage Sites, the beautifully preserved defence fort is a prime example of an 18th-19th-century structure. Those who secure a room at Souq Al Wakra Hotel Qatar by Tivoli or any other 5 star hotels in Doha can visit the site before their departure time.

Is it worth to have a family trip to Doha?
There are several 5 Star Hotels in Doha that offer family packages when you seek for your accommodation facilities. If you select Souq Al Wakra Hotel Qatar by Tivoli for your stays, remember the Superior Room has a king bed, twin beds and all that it takes to make your family happy.

Desert trips with family
A desert trip is a must to take if you go on a family trip to Doha. You can try some fun with dune bashing first and then go on a couple of camel rides during your desert trips with the family. This will be a good experience for the kids too.

What do kids have to do?
With kids, visiting the MIA playground is a fantastic idea. Also, don’t forget to pay a visit to the Museum of Islamic Art to which entrance is free to anyone. Wander around Souq Waqif with your family and enjoy some good shopping with all!

Getting around in Doha
Walking with kids is always the best option, but if it’s too far, you may also get a cab to get to the place where you want. Taxis in Doha are reasonable too so that either way will be fine!
