The engine thumps to life and a ribbon of gold dunes unfurls ahead — wind shaping ridges that dare you to climb. On the outskirts of Doha, quad bikes bite into soft sand while guides thread the group between rolling faces and steep leeward slopes; every crest delivers a new view of the inland desert and, in the distance, the city skyline.
