Custom-made tours for school and college students; to showcase Qatar’s top-tier educational and tourism resources

Specially designed tours are offered by Discover Qatar (DQ) to showcase Qatar’s top-tier educational and tourism resources as well as the distinctive features of Doha. These tours, custom-made for school and college students from across the globe, present a unique opportunity for a holistic view of Qatar’s premier academic ecosystem, while immersing guests in the culture of the country.

DQ aims to provide life-enhancing travel experiences to empower students to learn beyond the classroom through these tours. These tours will enable cross culture connections for the students to develop new ideas and perspectives through special experiences, training, and networking opportunities.

DQ’s educational tours focus on a range of subjects including architecture, art and culture, sports and performance excellence, fashion and design, business management, and gastronomy, all with the goal of stimulating learning for students through curated activities and workshops. Bringing learning curriculums to life, students can develop problem-solving skills, improve critical thinking, broaden their worldview, and learn through a variety of custom-designed workshops, activities, and interactive experiential sessions.  The specially-designed programmes are offered for five days and can be extended up to ten days based on the subject or expected learning outcomes.

These are all-inclusive group programmes that combine services such as hotel accommodation, meals, airport and local city transfers, sightseeing activities and a guide who escorts the group for a complete stay in Doha. DQ recently conducted familiarisation tours during which participants discovered diverse opportunities through interactions at Qatar Foundation and Education City, mainly at Weill Cornell Medicine – Qatar, Texas A&M University at Qatar, and Virginia Commonwealth University School of the Arts in Qatar.

It also arranged visits to National Museum of Qatar, 3-2-1 Qatar Olympic and Sports Museum, Fire Station, Mathaf: Arab Museum of Modern Art, M7, Katara Cultural Village, and Aspire Academy to present an all-inclusive understanding of Qatar.

Happymiles Outdoor Learning is aiming to send approximately 25 student groups to Qatar in next six months. Discover Qatar has already signed several agreements with key travel partners in India and is looking to Europe and USA markets for strategic key partnerships.
