Al Dosari Zoo and Game Reserve




Al Dosari Zoo and Game Reserve at Shahaniya, is a private Zoo and a Park for families to enjoy some quality time away from Doha!



 This is a very popular destination for many families in Qatar especially during Eid holiday seasons!


Location details for Dosari Zoo could be found at www.rush360.qa by seraching for "Dosari Zoo".
On the Dukhan Road take the Camel Track exit and at the Shahaniya Roundabout turn right and drive through until you see the Dosari Game Reserve.


The opening times are 7am till sunset, as the Zoo is closed as soon as the sun sets and even if you want to go after that its too dark to see any animals! There are toilet facilities and a Masjid (Mosque) separate for ladies as well. Few small shops are available around the Park for water, juice and other little snacks. There is no entrance fee and no need for any bookings.

When you see this, its time to leave.....................................


It is a nice place to go for a change with family. And children as they are will love the sight of the animals for sure and definitely a much needed change of atmosphere.


The owner of the zoo Muhammad Al Dosari is known to be a very hospitable person, and over the years the Dosari Zoo and Game Reserve has seen to be expanding and improving.


We wish Mr. Dosari and his staff all success and we hope one day this Reserve will be one of the best Zoos and Game Reserves in Qatar with lot more educational and entertainment activities.
