Cars

Driving is the easiest way to get around in Qatar.  The roads are well connected and there are lots of opportunities to go exploring off road if you have a four wheel drive.  Most of the roads that connect the main cities are dual carriageways, though there is still a lot of construction going on and you have to keep a look out for the many diversions.

Petrol Stations abound in Doha but are not very frequent on the highways connecting the other cities.  You should fuel up before you head out of Doha.  Some petrol stations, including the Woqod chain are open 24 hours.     

Driving in Qatar can be a little daunting at first but with a little practice you get used to it.  Since there is a dearth of taxi's here, if you are going to be in town for a while it is best to check the availability of cars in Qatar. There are also a number of car rentals in Qatar that offer short term as well as long term packages.
