The programme

We will leave the port on a comfortable coach and travel along the famous Corniche, the promenade that stretches 7 km and covers the entire Bay of Doha, which is dotted with ancient and modern buildings. Our destination is Katara Cultural Village, a sophisticated development centre containing numerous theatres, galleries and facilities for entertainment and cultural events, which reinterprets the region’s architectural heritage in an innovative way and helps to promote the culture of Qatar.
Katara Cultural Village is divided into various different settings and we are free to walk around the main area, built in the style of the typical alleyways of Qatar called Al Fareej. We can also admire more modern areas with all kinds of attractions such as restaurants, cafés, green spaces and information centres.
Our tour will then continue on to The Pearl-Qatar, an artificial island off the coast of West Bay, boasting Mediterranean-style marinas brimming with yachts, tall residential buildings, luxury villas, world-famous hotels and luxurious shopping centres with showrooms and boutiques by some of the biggest international brands. We will stop here to take photographs.
Back on board our coach, we will travel to the oldest part of the city, Old Doha, a bustling area where the centre stands out with its mosque and famous Souq Waqif, the fascinating market that retains the authentic ambience of the past.
We will visit the souk and enjoy some shopping. Crossed by wide roads, the souk is dotted with cafés and restaurants with terraces, which give way to a myriad of typical little shops managed exclusively by men on the side roads, where you can truly find anything: ceramics and textiles, spices, Arab sweets, candied fruit and traditional clothing as well as classic souvenirs.
