Itinerary

Situated near Doha Port, this is a destination that sums up the trendy, unique, eccentric nature of Qatar today. Box Park features vibrantly-coloured, reimagined shipping containers that have somehow become an inspiring destination for explorers of the city. Box Park is filled with metal boxes that used to help transport cargo but have been repurposed as shops, cafés, dining outlets and commercial spaces, with various food trucks nearby. Remember to bring your camera; with walls displaying artistic creativity, it seems Instagram was invented for Box Park.

City tour of Doha.

The guided tour was fantastic, we passed through the main sights of Doha. Our guide Abdul Nasir was fantastic, very cordial, helpful to take photos, good communication and very friendly. Bonus came a transfer because he picked us up at the airport and at the end we stayed in our hotel.

Knowledgeable

He explained in detail various questions, which taught me a lot about Doha's history and economy. I also had more memories because he was very active in taking pictures. The experience of touching the falcon was particularly impressive and was a good experience.
