- DarthValhalla0 contributionsExcitement,Wonder checking stuff of the bucket list.You must do this tour! We had Hassan as our driver. First he communicated before the tour on what time the pickup would be, he communicated that morning when he was on the way and when he was there. WhatsApp is a must! On the drive out there he was explaining what the buildings were for and answering questions. You get to the camels and the place sells add ons like head scarfs, if you wanna hold a falcon etc. you ride the camels and the guy leading the camels will take photos of you and video of you using your phone. There’s also complimentary tea served which was delicious. While your having this fun Hassan was airing down the tires. Then you load up and hit the dunes in what I can only describe as a suv roller coaster with appropriate music playing. For example when we started out he had one more night by Maroon 5 then after your sufficiently scared/excited it’s time for see you again by wiz Khalifa then after a few more scares it’s calm down by Selena Gomez. His driving was excellent and you definitely get the adrenaline pumping. He does a couple stops for photos and to enjoy the sights. Hassan also made it a point to ask if you wanted your photo taken. This was the best tour I’ve taken in Doha and worth it. 2 people in our group even got picked up at the airport and did the tour on their long layover. Now that’s a way to travel!Written January 20, 2025

The daytime dune bashing with Falcon Tours is better than the night-time one (speaking as someone who has done both tours). If you have a choice between either the night or day tour, I would highly recommend the day tour instead.
I also suggest that you contact Falcon Tours directly instead of booking on this website; I found that it was nearly half the price when contacted directly.
Hotel pickups are very punctual. Shah Jahan was an incredibly friendly tour guide who had endless stories to share about his time in Qatar. He would answer all the questions I had and gave me a great experience. He's a real gentleman who is very respectful of other religions. He also gave me the impression that he's very respectful towards women, so if you are a solo female traveler who is worried about safety, it might be a good choice to specifically ask for him.
The desert is mostly dark and it's hard to see anything (including the views from the inline beach). The dune bashing is much less thrilling at night when the headlines only illuminate a few meters ahead of the car. However, the desert at night is a cool experience for people traveling in groups or with their partners. They can stop and lie down in the sand - gazing at a large number of stars and have a great night. As a solo traveler, it was more impressive in the daytime.
They are experienced with people doing short layovers in Qatar and will ensure a punctual pickup and drop from the airport.

Guys, take the long layover in Qatar and do a night safari!! This was so fun! It’s a perfect way to beat jet lag and do something a little different.
Naveed was the best host and tour guide. I felt extremely safe, he knows the city so well, and was the best photographer ever (you’ll want the photos). I was able to get picked up straight from the airport. It was such an easy process to set up!
After pick up, you go on a quick camel trip; which is nice, as they treat them respectfully. You can opt to hold a falcon here as well. Everyone will take as many photos of you as you want! Next, you take a ride through the sand dunes, which is just a whole new experience. You’ll stop at a perfect spot for photos, then whenever you’re ready, you head to the beach!
Highly recommend this as an option for an evening layover or just to do something different. The weather is perfect in the evening and the sand was a comfortable temperature. Enjoy the beautiful night views from the sand dunes!

The night safari with Nevid was one of the best experiences of my life! He knows every dune in the desert by heart, making you feel at home and protected. He’s very attentive all the time asking you what you need and making sure you take all your time to visit carefully each place in the safari. He takes you to ride the camels and then in the desert, making you feel like United with nature. I would recommend it to everyone!

This tour was amazing! Mujahid was our guide and was excellent. We booked the day before for a night tour and Mujahid was in contact with us instantly to confirm pick up.
Our tour started at approx 6pm. It took about an hour to drive to the area to ride the Camels which was so fun! It was a quick ride (10 min) which was plenty of time for the experience and photo op.
Afterwards we went dune bashing which was an absolute blast! After about 30-40 min of riding through the dunes we stopped at an inland sea to stargaze. Sitting in the dark, under the stars, in the middle of the desert, listening to the waves crash was a beautiful experience.
I highly recommend this tour and feel like the night Safari makes it extra special.

A car came to pick us up from hotel, my tour guide driver was Saleem he gave me all the details about qatar routes, He was really friendly and having good communication than we went to desert and i rode camel and it was really awesome experience, and saleem took my pictures with falcon, saleem started dune bashing and the way he was driving was really skilled I haven’t seen someone driving in that way before than we had a stop up on the dunes whilst saleem took my pictures . We had a stop at inland sea it was really fun . All the reviews were legitimate and the experience was worth it.
I would recommend everyone to have a tour with falcons.
Thank you for the best experience falcon tour.

We took the night option as it’s in the middle of summer here with temperatures hitting 45C. Will come back again for a day trip in the future.
Getting to visit a desert in a four wheel drive is certainly an experience of a lifetime. Our guide / driver was very skilled in bashing the dunes like a pro. We ended up at a beach of the inland sea. Sky was clear and we had amazing photos of the Arabian night filled with stars.
Our 11 year old was apprehensive about riding a camel but in the end she thoroughly enjoyed it.
The tour operator (Falcon Tours) and our guide: Amir, we’re fabulous in accommodating our requests for changes to timing and pick up locations. Speaks perfect English. Highly recommended.

Nabi, our desert tour guide, took my four friends and me on an unforgettable night desert tour. The first part of the journey was a ten-minute camel ride at the base of the sand dunes. Riding camels felt very different from horseback riding. We sat between two humps on sturdy mares, which made us feel safer and warmer, especially in the chilly winter night winds.
The second part of the tour was an exhilarating 4x4 ride. Nabi skillfully drove us through deep sand ridges and plunged his jeep into steep dunes, sending our hearts racing with every dip and climb. The thrill and excitement were unmatched, and we couldn’t stop laughing and shouting with joy.
Finally, Nabi took us to the shore of the Arabian Sea, where we witnessed the amazing sight of fish jumping out of the water. The whole experience was unique, thrilling, and a perfect way to end the night.

My husband and I took this tour at beginning of october. Our guide Tariq came right on time to pick us up from the hotel. It was just the two of us with him that evening. We drove about 30 mins to the first stop which was the camel ride. We were taken for a walking ride with the camels by a camel herder. It was thankfully short since we could hardly manage to keep our balance, but it was really fun experience. When you are getting on and off, you feel you are about to fall off!
After the ride we were treated to some local coffee. After the coffee we took off again in his SUV and went into the sand dunes. Within a few minutes were in middle of the desert and it was all dark except for the car headlights! It was amazing how Tariq knew where to go! He took some exciting turns down sides of various dunes and you can feel the adrenaline rush as the car tilts! After about 30 mins of that we reached the beach. We got right to the edge and parked. We took some pics there. We could see many other groups camped out there, with fishing rods set up for night fishing! Then we drove half-way back. Tariq asked us if we would like to try sand-boarding and we said of course! So we stopped, he took out the sand board and we slid down the side of a dune, the only lighting being the headlights! It was really fun, but keep in mind, you have to walk back up the dune yourself! Finally we drove back to the hotel. Overall it was really enjoyable and memorable. Thank you Tariq for a wonderful experience!

We had an incredible experience with Mr Hassan! As we drove through the city to collect the couple sharing the experience with us, our guide told us more about the city and pointed out landmarks.
The entire experience was just absolutely amazing, and we would 100% recommend that all visitors to Qatar go on this outing. I would go again over and over!

Written December 27, 2019
Yes you will definitely have time to do this tour and get back in time for your next flight. We met our driver and it took about 45 minutes to get out to the desert. Just message them about your flight time and they will message you back. And just a little tip - make sure and use the bathroom before you leave the airport, as there is nowhere to go on the tour.
