Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive and Qatar Tourism Chairman, HE Akbar Al Baker, said they are delighted to announce the extension of the tour after much success during the last two months. He said that the tour offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for guests to connect with nature in Qatar through this unparalleled experience and they look forward to welcoming more guests before the end of the season.

This true natural wonder only occurs between the summer months of April through September.

Whale Sharks, which are often referred to as gentle giants, are estimated to have existed for 60 million years. They can live up to 100 years and grow up to 12 metres in length.

Discover Qatar offers guests the option of sightings from a luxurious private charter yacht or a Daily Explorer tour on a high-speed catamaran. Both options include breakfast and lunch, a Whale Sharks expert guide and Wi-Fi on the vessels.

Both tours are available to book on the Discover Qatar website. For more information, visit discoverqatar.qa
