North of Qatar
You will head approximately 40 kilometers North of Doha, where you will discover the heritage side of Qatar. Your first stop will be the Umm Salal Fortress.

The next stop is Al Zubarah, an important archaeological site, famous for its old fort. This fort-turned-museum was built in 1938, during the power of Sheikh Abdullah Bin Jassim Al-Thani and was erected on the ruins of a neighboring fort. The fort is square-shaped with circular towers in three of its corners and a rectangular tower in the fourth. You will then proceed on to Al Ruwais to see the Dhow boat harbor and take a short break at the Ruwais beach to relax and feel its fresh sea breeze. On your way back to Doha you will pass by Al Khor, which is the second biggest town in Qatar, famous for its harbor and beautiful surrounding beaches. You will also visit the Al Khor Museum.
At the end of the tour, by late afternoon you will be dropped back at the hotel for an evening of leisure. After you enjoy a quiet dinner on your own, we will pick you up for a Night City tour on our Hop on Hop off bus, where you can witness a beautiful night view of the city.
