Qatar

Qatar is a small peninsula on the Gulf whose capital has become one of the most dynamic cities in the region. Doha combines a modern skyline with real care for heritage: the Museum of Islamic Art, the National Museum of Qatar and the lanes of Souq Waqif stand side by side. Outside the city, the desert stretches south to Khor Al Adaid, the Inland Sea, where golden dunes run straight into the water in a landscape unlike any other.

A destination for every kind of trip

Families stroll along the Corniche, visit Katara Cultural Village and enjoy the waterfront of The Pearl. Culture lovers spend time in Doha's museums and galleries, while sports fans know Qatar for the major international events it hosts. Business travellers find a modern city with conference centres and a wide choice of hotels, and adventurers set off on dune excursions to the Inland Sea.

Getting there from Libya

Qatar is reached by air via Hamad International Airport in Doha, a major hub linking the Gulf with the rest of the world. Our team prepares your entry permit application and arranges your hotel, transfers and excursions in Doha and the desert, for a comfortable and well-organised stay.
