3 Days in Doha, Qatar: A Perfect Itinerary with Hidden Gems, Doha, Qatar
What can you see and do in Doha in 3 days? Do you really need that much time? I mentioned in my previous post all the highlights of Doha for 1-day trip, but really, there is so much more to do that it would not be possible to squeeze in one day. Some time ago I created a list of 50 amazing things to do in Qatar and I assure you, the list is not exhaustive.

So in this 3 days in Doha itinerary, I’m including places that are still unknown as they were opened only a few months ago. I’m not talking about restaurants or coffee places, but whole new neighborhoods.
Doha is very well connected with many cities in Europe, USA or now is going to even have more direct flights to South America. Since the city is not that known yet, it is mainly used as a stopover option on the way to Africa, Asia and Australia. There are a few airlines flying to Doha, however I highly recommend Qatar Airways as they offer an amazing stopover packages with 5-star hotels starting at over 30$. Its really worth booking it as a stopover option rather than a whole separate trip. ...... (follow the instructions below for accessing the rest of this article).
