West Coast Tour: Zekreet, Film City & Mushroom Rocks – zekreet tour – Qatar Layover Tours1 / 3

Overview

Discover Qatar's hidden west. Travel by 4x4 to the Zekreet Peninsula to see dramatic mushroom-shaped limestone formations, explore the abandoned 'Film City' village, and walk among the four towering steel plates of Richard Serra's East-West/West-East sculpture in the Brouq Nature Reserve. A perfect tour for photographers and repeat visitors.

What to expect

Bring water, sun protection and a camera. Some sites are remote with few facilities, so we recommend using the bathroom before departure. Summer temperatures are high, so winter mornings are the most comfortable time to go.

Highlights
