Over the past weekend, Doha-based destination management company, 365 Adventures by Peninsula Compass Tourism catered to a record number of people in the desert, serving over 900 guests.
The company, which takes pride in providing custom-tailored adventures and experiences, said in a statement that this has been their biggest weekend ever.
The 900 guests were divided into four distinct groups. The first was a small company of 28 locals who visited Al Thakira Beach, to enjoy an overnight camping experience with a campfire, night-time African drumming and kayaking with the sunrise.
Following that, 365 Adventures treated a group of more than 700 football fans visiting for the FIFA Club World Cup 2019 to an activity-filled evening in the desert.
The highlight was 365 Adventures treating the famous Mexican musician/comedian Franco Escamilla and his entourage to a desert retreat. Meraj M Qureish, operations manager of 365 Adventures said: “Ever since the government opened up the visa process for over 80 nationalities, there has been a veritable surge of tourists and with every passing day, Qatar is becoming a premier tourism destination that is able to cater to a variety of needs.”
