During busy hours and on holidays, the cabins are incredibly crowded and there is a rush to get on and off. You may run the risk of being crushed. The number of cabins is insufficient and not proportional to the number of passengers. You can reach anywhere you want to go in Doha with the flights renewed every 10 minutes...

Very easy to access.

Souq Wagif is a very lovely place in Doha and very tourist should pay a visit to it
You can eat there in Iranian, Yemeni and Qatari restaurants. And you can buy souvenirs from it.
I hope everyone enjoy the testimony

This metro station is located near the Qatari traditional market and probably the most visited place in Qatar 🇶🇦

This railway system is fantastic. It takes a short while to get the hang of it but we found other passengers were helpful and guided is to the correct place.
Once we figured out out, it was easy to use.
A day pass for all lines was only QAR6 per passenger

This is quite a busy metro station and a lot of people going to Souq & Souq Waqif. The mens toilet only has 3 cubicles & needs improvement, it's always under maintenance only 1 cubicle is available for thousand of passengers in & out of this station.

The metro station at souq waqif is located on the golden line. This particular station is unique due to the paintings and photographs of traditional old doha embedded on the walls leading In-out of the station. The station is located strategically as it lead to the center of the souq making it extremely easy to locate and accessable. Staff are very helpful and make your commuting experience much easier.

First time trying Doha Metro!!!
Very busy station, but also very kind staff, they helped us find our way to the nearest metro stop to the pearl.
You got different rooms in the train, we first used the standard one (it was super noisy and busy) and then the family one (this one was way better, peaceful).
It's very cheap (tho you can't use the same card for two people). Everything is so clean and well organised.
