I felt very very safe. The city was so clean too. I went during the world cup and they hosted such a big crowd in such an amazing manner. The accommodation and food both was very expensive however im sure you can get cheap eats if you research a bit. I ubered around but everybody was so respectful and accessible

I love Qatar. It's very safe for solo travel. Lots of culture and food so it's suitable for all travelers. I decided to stay here for a month. Feeling very blessed. Taxi is also relatively cheap for a developed country.

Extremely safe! Safest I've ever felt anywhere. - Must-do: Arabic food, Vendome Mall, The Pearl, Katara, QNL. - Quite expensive, but worth all the money. - I can't comment on accommodation as I had a private one. - Public transport is super useful, especially he metro rail. - Uber or other ride-hailing services are also easily available.

It was a fun experience I did feel safe The activities there are mostly in malls as it's very hot and humid, but I was told that the weather is nicer in January I stayed with a family friend, and that was a blessing The good but it depends on the cusine there's a wide variety of cuisines and cultures in Qatar Travel was mostly via Uber. You can't really walk anywhere Fun activities I did: visiting the National Museum. It was amazing. I highly recommend trying it out. I don't remember exactly how much I paid, but it was reasonable, and I believe they have student discounts if you're in Uni I also visited the islamic museum. The view there was spectacular And Souq waqif which is a huge market with lots of different kinds of shops and restaurants I highly recommend it but you have to go there at night

In doha I felt very safe, my stay was short so I didn’t get to do much but I’m sure there are so many cool things to visit or do. One of my favourites sights was alhazm mall it had a very nice architecture, with a bit pricy shops. However the airport was a journey itself, it was VERY long, nothing to be scared of tho, good luck!!

Extremely safe I have very minimal issues. I prefer to stay in areas where there are more expats. Even though it’s a safe country, the men out here unfortunately think all foreign women engage in SW. Don’t be afraid to tell them off and report them ! It’s none of their business where you live/stay or even your nationality because they do discriminate if they think your passport are from certain countries

Doha is REALLY SAFE. I do not feel fear at all. Ofcourse I have to respect their culture and dress code but I’m assuming if I want be respected I also must respect them. You can walk and go alone at ANY time. Even in the night. Actually here , men wouldn’t even talk to you if you do not approach him. As by the law a man can be in jail is a woman say she felt harassed by him.

About me
I’m a 28-year-old solo traveler originally from NYC and currently based in Qatar. I love exploring new cities through food, art, and music especially through Latin dancing, R&B, jazz and hip-hop nights. I’m super open-minded, easygoing, and love meeting fellow adventurers with good energy. I spend my days hitting museums, walking tours, shopping or sipping something refreshing with a view. At night, I’m all about finding the best lounges, dance floors, or live music spots.
