Reviews
Overview
Take a step back from your routine and recharge yourself by visiting a natural landscape of scenic deserts in Qatar.
The Half Day Desert Safari Qatar is one of the most popular experiences for visitors who want to explore the desert without spending the entire day. This private tour takes you on an adrenaline-filled ride across the golden dunes in a licensed 4×4 Land Cruiser, with comfortable seating for up to 6 passengers per vehicle.
The journey begins with a convenient pick-up and drop-off from Doha City, followed by a drive through scenic desert terrain. Along the way, your driver will deflate the tires to prepare for dune bashing – a thrilling 45 to 60 minutes ride across the rolling sand dunes. You’ll also stop at the Sealine Beach and capture memorable photographs before continuing deeper into the desert.
The highlight of the tour is reaching the Inland Sea of Khor Al Adaid, a UNESCO-recognized natural reserve where the waters of the Arabian Gulf touch the desert sands. Depending on your timing, you may witness either a golden sunrise or a beautiful sunset over the dunes. Optional camel rides and falcon photography are also available at extra cost.
This quick yet exciting desert safari is ideal for families, couples, or small groups who want a taste of Qatari adventure and culture. Pair it with other experiences such as our Doha City Tour or the Overnight Desert Safari for a complete desert journey.
