Souq Waqif is a showpiece of traditional architecture, handicrafts and folk art, and was once a weekend trading area for the Bedouin. The only traditional souq to remain in the Gulf, it is now a charming labyrinth of narrow streets where visitors can bargain and purchase an amazingly diverse range of products.
A visit to one of the falcon shops is a unique experience – some shopkeepers will allow you to photograph and handle the birds while explaining equipment and training.
There are very often displays of folk dance and music, particularly on festive occasions, and opportunities to take authentic pictures. Enjoy your day or evening at the Souk followed by a dinner in one of the local restaurants.

If you ever visit Doha, don't miss to visit the Souk Waqif.. An evening stroll through the Souks with its hundreds of little shops is an unique event.
The smell of spices and grilled food is everywhere.
Don't miss, when there, to have dinner and one of the dozens of restaurants.

The Doha Souk Waqif visit is a must. Stay over @ Doha and enjoy the excellent Souk culture combined with other Doha special affordable events. The shopping, for myself camel bunny & long sleeve jacket as well as leather belts & purse was memorable and still fits 100%.

The tour gave us an insight into the life in Doha - past, present and future. Our guide was fantastic. This is an ideal tour to understand the effects of Qatar government to make Doha a great city on the world map. Unforgettable scenes are the marina with jet skiers, amphitheater among other things
