how much cash for quick Doha visit
I am about to make my flying interview visit to Doha and wondered how much cash I will need.
Airport transfers, hotel costs are being covered but if I wanted to get out and about on my own for an afternoon how much cash will i need for taxi's around Doha and maybe a snack early evening or can I use credit cards for most things? |

what about food?
I would have thought that 100 would easily cover a meal at Nando's or Applebee's at the the City Centre Mall. They all accept credit cards there anyway. Taxi from the airport to West Bay is what, 30? |

Re: how much cash for quick Doha visit
You can use your card for everything - you should not spend more than 100 quid depending on where you eat and if you add on a few beers. This is in the region of 500 Qatari Riyals.

Beng meet at the Airport by "Al Maha" - some sort of meet and greet service that get me through the airport. Then the hotel's driver is collecting me. Si have two nights in Doha and wanted to have a look around on Saturday afternoon - which should be OK based on some of the other posts on here. Open to any suggestions though for what to do / where to go. |

a number of bars and restaurants in the hotel complex. The souk (Taxi QR 20) is worth a visit. In the opposite direction the golf club has a decent bar and food (Qr 30 taxi). See the Pearl and Katara "cultural" village the way. Nothing exciting.

Open to any suggestions though for what to do / where to go. I would take a walk around the Pearl and grab something to eat there, its actually quite nice if you like huge fancy yachts. No idea on taxi fares but cant be that bad. There really is **** all to do really which if you have read the other posts on Doha, you will already know |
