Mangrove Kayaking & Cycling Exploration Tours - vouchers

  This is  the cheapest  deal I have  seen   about  mangroves kayaking  in Qatar . So I thought I would share it now .   You have to  ride there on your own . Al Dhakira, Al Khor  is  the place's name  where  you have to arrive . No  food is provided  - only  drinks .

But for  QR  100 they will provide a guide , kayak, lifejacket & paddles .


 If you wish  rather  a bike tour  then you can buy  a voucher  for Qr 50 . The same  natural wonder  but by mountain bikes provided  by the  company .


 Both   sounds  exciting  to me .

 Follow  the link  to the  Qgrabs  site to learn  more .
