Frequently asked questions
Due to Doha’s proximity, you can cover a lot of attractions in a day if time is of the essence. However, if you are keen to really experience Doha and its delights, try to spend three to four days here.
Official guidance from the Visit Qatar website indicates that attitudes towards dress in Qatar are relaxed, but visitors (both men and women) are encouraged to dress modestly and avoid revealing clothing in public. It is generally recommended for both genders to keep their shoulders and knees covered.
Lightweight loose-fitting long-sleeved tops and long pants in breathable fabrics and comfortable walking shoes are a necessity. T-shirts and board shorts (for men and women) if you’re planning on swimming at public beaches are also strongly recommended.
The West Bay area is ideal as it’s within the city’s financial and commercial district with plenty of options for sampling the local cuisine and provides easy access to Doha’s main attractions. It’s also just 30 minutes by car from the new Hamad International Airport, so that’s a bonus!

Doha is the capital city and main financial hub of Qatar, so it’s kind of a big deal. Doha is also famous for several of its cultural landmarks including the Imam Muhammad Ibn Abd Al Wahhab Mosque, the Souq Waqif market and the awe-inspiring Museum of Islamic Art, to name a few.
Doha is blessed with superb weather all year round, meaning it is a great destination whatever the season. That said, Qatar is known for its scorching summers. If you’re looking for a poolside vacay, aim for November or March to May, when it cools down a little. Just a heads up if you’re planning a March vacation, be sure to check the dates for Ramadan.
Doha dishes up a smorgasbord of things to see and do, from visiting cultural landmarks such as the Imam Muhammad Ibn Abd Al Wahhab Mosque and the awe-inspiring Museum of Islamic Art, to hunting for bargains at the traditional Souq Waqif market and sprawling by the beach.
