Doha Bus Company recorded an increase in the number of tours and passengers during the past month which assures the company of a prospective year ahead said Doha Bus Company General Manager Tareq Amora.
“I am happy to tell you that it has been an amazing month full of challenges on an operational level. The numbers were large and exceeded the expected level,” he said.
Tareq said that the Al Majlis Resort in Sealine acquired by the company recently hosted more than five thousand guests during the World Cup, where they spent a wonderful day on the beach, tried camel riding, watched the Arabian Oryx, tasted Arabic food in addition to many cultural and folklore events.
“The Hop-on Hop-Off tour bus service met with a very large demand and played a very important role in introducing Qatar and the city of Doha specifically to the arriving visitors, as the buses took them to its beautiful landmarks and wonderful attractions,” Tareq said adding that transportation services were operating around the clock and linked hotels to stadiums, airports and tourist attractions.
On the number of tours he said it exceeded three to four times the usual number during the FIFA World Cup month.
The organisation was at the highest level, and we, as the Doha Bus Company, never encountered any accidents or problems and everything was smooth and perfect, Tareq said.
He said the mega sporting event will be an eye opener to the global investor community and the beginning of an era of rapid development across all sectors of the economy.
Doha Bus is a leading destination management company in Qatar, catering to the tourism, hospitality and sight-seeing markets.
Established in 2013, the privately-owned company that initially started off as a Hop On Hop Off tour provider, has expanded out and diversified into other related markets and has in turn rapidly grown in the tourism and hospitality industry.
Estimates reveal that over 1.2 million visitors attended the FIFA World Cup held across eight state of the art stadiums in Doha from November 20 to December 18.
The selection of Doha as Arab Tourism Capital for 2023 recently by the Arab Ministerial Council for Tourism recently recognises Doha as a destination that offers an amazing experience for travelers.
The Arab State is aiming at attracting up to around six million visitors a year by 2030 according to sources.
