Although 18 years is the minimum age requirement to obtain a driving licence in Doha, for car hire the minimum age for drivers is 21 years old. You will also need to produce a valid form of identification as in an ID document or passport. Passports are a must for international drivers.

Driving your car hire in Doha city and exploring the surrounding desert areas is easy and straightforward. The roads are well maintained and easy to navigate with wide roads and good traffic controls. We would recommend large, four-wheel drives as you can go from the city to the desert without any issues. A car like the Honda CR-V has all the features of a luxury car that boasts all-wheel drive, perfect for city driving, and can switch to a four-wheel drive. Feel free to choose an automatic as the cost of fuel is cheap and the roads system is well arranged, making driving a pleasure.
