The Inland Sea
Hi everyone,
Just a day or so after we arrive (and therefore before we start work) is our wedding anniversary and we'd like to do something special. A friend who was in Qatar years ago suggested a trip to the Inland Sea. Any opinions? How would we arrange this from here? Would we be able to arrange it just the day before when we arrive? Any better suggestions? Obviously something romantic (and not involving bus loads of people!) ...
Thanks L
safe driving and enjoy your trip to the Inland Sea..

HE WHO DARES WINS
Im excited, and happy these old threads are still here!
I hear that!
What am I doing in a post that is ancient. Time I took my break, and did some work for a change. LOL
I vouched for MTC Al Mazaya Tours, I've tried there desert safari, and it was really nice to see a mini resort in the middle of the desert, plus it is close to the sea! There camp site is really cozy and stupendous.
And, It is also romantic especially during sunset, and when all the lights are opened, you and your guest would surely be fascinated, as much as I did. And, there staff are very warming and accomodating, and the food also is great!
This post is over 2 years old, I'm sure they found something to do.

If you need a very nice Dhow call this number 6439958 they might be little expensive but they will give you a real nice service and the Dhow is amazing………
Why not hire a dow for an afternoon/evening trip, prepare dinner/order whatever easier and then spend a couple of hours on the water with you loved one. Super Romantic I tell, yah
I went on a trip with Al Mazaya Tours (MTC) I had never seen anything like this before in the Gulf region, they have the best camp site, the facilities and services they offer was out standing, if someone interested to go to the inland sea I recommend this company. i think the number is 5709780
I seem to remember meeting Emad when he had a display set up at the Qatar Master Golf Tournament just after he started the business. If it was him then he knows his stuff.
Yes, it IS too hot to visit the inland sea now. Keep in mind that you will not only require to take your drinking water but also water to shower with if you go in the sea. It can be very uncomfortable driving back with the particles of salt rubbing in.
Silly me! Hadn't thought of that!
Nice restaurant with air con??? any suggestions???
Too hot will be miserable. Don't go to inland sea until October
Actually my brother is the Manager at Gulf Adventures, his name is Emad. I would recommend calling them. Emad is probably the most experienced in this sort of thing, especially in the Gulf area.
Cheers
Thank you so much, Great, lots of sites to look at and I'll get in touch with the company you suggest,

I've seen the Arabian adventures Landcruisers rolling around the Inland Sea. I'd imagine if you get in touch they could tailor make something for you. Maybe a night down at the Sealine hotel would be nice. Have decent rooms on the beach down there in Meesaid (+974 7772722)
