Transit Tours

If the calendar does not show availability on this website, please visit the Discover Qatar desk at Hamad International Airport for last minute availability, see map for our location.

When travelling through Qatar, there’s no need to wish your time away at the airport. If your transit is 6 hours and more, you can turn your stop into an extended holiday by joining a city tour of Doha, the city where modernity meets Arabic tradition, or a desert adventure taking in the incredible Inland Sea. For transit times of 3 hours or more, choose our Discover Relaxation at the Airport tour and enjoy one of 3 exclusive, stress-melting massages. 

We have made this as simple as possible for you, taking care of all arrangements for your transit and ensuring you are back in good time for your following flight so that you can make the most of your transit time and taking a break from your travels to discover Qatar and explore its unique Arabic heritage before connecting to your final destination.

Qatar Transit Visa
Nationalities from 102+ countries can enter Qatar visa-free. To check visa requirements, please see the Visit Qatar website. If you do not qualify for visa-free entry, you can apply for a Transit Visa for QAR 100 at Discover Qatar Transit Desk at HIA.
