Heritage Exploration/Nomadic Adventures

Get a taste of the nomadic lifestyle

In this overnight trip, explore the desert and experience a taste of the nomadic lifestyle of the Qatari locals.

This two days/one night trip is the most perfect and comprehensive way to experience Qatar. You will first visit Mesaieed, stopping for a moment to ride camels, before heading out to the singing sand dunes for a thrilling session of dune-bashing. After dune-bashing, you can relax and swim in the Khor Al Adaid, Qatar’s famous Inland Sea. Following that, you will be treated to an overnight rustic camping experience in the desert. The next day, you will have the chance to visit one of the most acclaimed UNESCO heritage sites of the country, the Al Zubara Fort and if time permits, you will also explore Al Jumail, an abandoned 19th century village. This trip includes meals, one of which will be hosted in a local farm by a Qatari host.
