Our guide, Emad was super fun and chatty. He was helpful, informative and an absolute gentleman. We got to see so much of The Pearl and it gave us an insight into to Qatar which we otherwise wouldn’t have had. A delightful afternoon.

Full description

Ready for a mouthwatering adventure? We'll start in Qanat Quartier, where pastel-colored buildings and charming canals set the scene for a perfect first bite: juicy, flavor-packed Shawarma. Take a moment to soak in the scenery and snap some photos—this place is straight out of a postcard!

*Note: Visiting in the summer? Don’t worry! To keep things comfortable, we minimize walking and use air-conditioned transport between stops so you can enjoy the experience without the heat.

Next, we'll drive to Viva Bahriya, a serene beachfront district where you can stretch your legs and take in gorgeous views of the Arabian Gulf. Then, it's off to Porto Arabia, a waterfront haven known for its elegant promenades, luxury yachts, and stunning marina views. Here, you’ll enjoy a locally loved street food pairing, bringing together soft and crispy textures with a side of Qatar’s favorite spiced drink. With the yachts lined in the marina and the city skyline in the background, it's the perfect place to connect, take in the moment, and capture stunning photos.

Our journey continues in Medina Centrale, a lively area full of character. First, you'll savor tender Persian kebabs, packed with smoky, aromatic spices. Then, we'll indulge in warm, gooey Kunafa, an irresistible Middle Eastern dessert with crispy pastry and melty cheese. To wrap up the feast, enjoy a cup of rich Arabic coffee, the ultimate symbol of Qatari hospitality.

Just when you think it can't get better, we'll head back to Porto Arabia for an optional boat ride. Glide past luxury yachts and illuminated cityscapes as we unwind, share stories, and capture breathtaking photos of the skyline reflecting on the water—a memorable finale to an evening of flavors and discovery.

Spots are limited, and we keep our tours small for a more personal experience. If you’re looking for a fun, social, and delicious evening, reserve your place now—we’d love to have you join us!
