Stop At: Souq Waqif, Bounded by Al-Souq St & Grand Hamad Street, Doha Qatar

Built on the site of Doha’s century-old trading market, on the banks of the Wadi Musheireb, Souq Waqif feels like an anachronism, particularly against the backdrop of Doha’s dramatic modernist skyline.

Souq Waqif’s winding alleys offer a tableau of traditional street life.

    In Doha, Qatar we had a tour of the city with Mohammad IBTIHAJ and he was superb. He explained the sites very well and we had an amazing time.

    Ok so I try to leave as positive reviews as possible but this one is kinda hard. The guide is a nice man but the tour was a bit blah. He had to be promoted to explain where we were going and looking at. He rarely stopped to get out of the car and walk around. It felt rushed and you really don’t get a sense of the history or places you see. Unless you are pressed for time better off exploring on your own.
