ITINERARY
- Stop at: al shahaniya racetrack, ash-shahaniyah qatar
- View the camel racing track while they are under training
- Stop at: east-west / west-east by richard serra, brouq nature reserve, doha qatar
This breathtaking sculpture in the brouq nature reserve spans over a kilometre and comprises four steel plates, each over fourteen metres in height. To guarantee perfect alignment, serra examined the topography of the land and beautifully enhanced the vast, desolate space in the heart of the desert. The result is spectacular and although modern, timeless.

- We recommend comfortable casual clothes and a jacket if it is winter.
- Take sunscreens and hats with you.

- Remember to bring your camera so that you can capture all the fantastic sights of the city!
There is no specific dress code for the safari. Anything comfortable will do. For the summer months wear something light and loose-fitting to stay cool. For winters, carry a jacket with you. The temperature in the desert falls sharply after sunset. Reserve your best clothes for other trips because after hours on the sand, you will find yourself dusting off your clothes. Another thing to take care is footwear. The sand gets everywhere inside your shoes if you are wearing a normal pair of low top sneakers. So it is better to wear high tops. Even toe-less sandals are better than sneakers. Don’t forget to bring your hats and shades and wear sunscreen. Also, remember that wearing outlandish and outrageous clothes can land you in trouble.
