When travelling through Qatar, there’s no need to wish your time away at the airport. If your transit at Hamad International Airport is 8 hours or more, you can turn your stop into an extended holiday. We make this as simple as possible for you by taking care of all of your transit arrangements and ensuring you are back in good time for your onward flight. You can then make the most of your transit time by taking a break from your travels to discover Qatar, and explore its unique Arabic heritage, before connecting to your final destination.

Transit Excusive - Discover the Desert and Inland Sea

From the Discover Qatar Transit Tours desk, you will be escorted to our air-conditioned vehicle to begin the tour. We drive approximately 1 hour to the entrance of the desert at Sealine, where we have a brief stop to deflate our tyres.

From here, the adventure starts with our off-road desert drive through the dramatic sand dunes. Your experienced driver will navigate the dunes until we reach Khor-Al-Adaid, or the inland sea. You will have an opportunity to take in the magnificent desert landscape, visit the towering Sheraton Dune and marvel at the azure waters of the Arabian Sea before we depart for a brief comfort stop at our desert camp on the way back to Hamad International Airport.
