Desert contemplation Culture and modernity
While Qatar is a world-class business hub with fantastic global connectivity, its credentials as a leisure travel destination are second to none. Whether your clients want to
relax in the sunshine beside the blue waters of the Arabian Gulf or explore a destination with a fascinating cultural heritage, Qatar has everything they could desire. Seamlessly blending the old with
the new, traditional dhow boats, the enchanting Souq Waqif and locals in their distinctive national dress provide a magical counterpoint to the futuristic skyline of the thriving capital, Doha. And with global four and five-star hotel brands including St. Regis, Four Seasons, InterContinental, Kempinski, Hilton, Grand Hyatt and Westin on offer, your customers will be sure of a first-class welcome wherever they choose to stay.
For those who like to get out and about on their holiday, an array of activities await: from golf and fishing to diving and desert adventures including dune-bashing in a 4x4 or even sand boarding. And for those who wish to get to
the heart of the Middle East, there is a rich cultural offering including museums, galleries and architecture. Stunning natural treasures also
abound, including the Khor Al Adaid (Inland Sea), one of only two places in the world where you can see water and desert together. And whenever they visit, guests are
likely to experience an event ranging from sporting spectacles to food, film and dhow festivals. Whatever your customers want
from their holiday, there has never been a better time to send them to this magical destination.
