TOUR SCHEDULE

Day 1
Day 1
Arrival & Exploration
Your brief stopover in Qatar begins with a warm airport welcome and a smooth private transfer to Mina Hotel & Residences — a boutique hotel by the water, perfectly located near the Corniche, museums, and local markets.
After check-in, take a moment to refresh, breathe in the warm air, and ease into the rhythm of the city.

In the afternoon, your private guided tour begins:
explore the Museum of Islamic Art, stroll through the modern heritage quarter of Msheireb, and enjoy a quiet tea in the heart of Souq Waqif.

Your evening is yours to enjoy — whether you choose dinner on a rooftop terrace or peaceful rest in your room.
Day 2
Day 2
Reflection & Departure
Start your morning with a slow breakfast, overlooking the Arabian Gulf.
If you wish, take a short walk along the Corniche, stop by the local fish market, or simply sit with a coffee as the city gently wakes up.

At your scheduled time, a private transfer will take you to the airport.
You leave refreshed — not rushed — with a soft memory of a country met in stillness.
