Also, please note that the cost of accommodation, food, and other personal expenses are not included in this budget. Some additional activities you could consider are visiting the Qatar National Museum, the Al Koot Fort or taking a Qatari cooking class. It’s important to book accommodations and transportation ahead of time as it can save you money and also make sure you have a place to stay. Also, It is important to note that getting around Qatar can be cheaper by using local transportation such as buses and taxis instead of flying.
