Doha: Lusail Shooting Range Private Tour with Pickup

Summary

Private shotgun session in Lusail with expert guidance and pickup

You’ll ride out from Doha to Lusail for a private shotgun session at one of Qatar’s top shooting clubs. With coaching from local experts, you’ll test your aim on real skeet ranges and share laughs over hot tea between rounds. Includes hotel pickup and all equipment—just bring curiosity (and maybe steady nerves).

What’s the experience like?

We rolled through Lusail City just as the sun was starting to get that sharp, white edge — you know, the kind that makes everything look a bit more futuristic. The drive from Doha was about half an hour, but it felt quicker because our driver, Khaled, kept pointing out new buildings popping up like mushrooms. When we pulled up to the Lusail Shooting Club, I actually hesitated at the entrance. I’d never held a shotgun before, let alone tried skeet shooting in Qatar. But the place had this calm buzz — not loud, just a low hum of people chatting and the distant crack of shots echoing off concrete walls.

Our instructor, Ahmad, had this dry sense of humor and didn’t seem fazed when I fumbled with the safety gear (the vest was heavier than I expected). He showed us how to load the shotgun — my hands shook a bit at first — and then explained how the clay targets would launch. There was a faint smell of oil and grass in the air. When my turn came, I missed my first two shots completely. Ahmad just grinned and said something about “everyone’s first time,” which made me relax. By my third try, I hit one — barely clipped it — but it felt oddly satisfying. The others cheered quietly; even strangers seemed invested for a second.

I sipped on sweet black tea between rounds (they serve it right there), watching other groups take their turns. Some were clearly pros — you could tell by how they stood so still before firing. My shoulder started to feel sore after a while but honestly? That little sting became part of the memory. After our last round (25 shells go surprisingly fast), we sat outside for a few minutes before heading back to Doha. The city skyline looked almost unreal from here — all glass and angles against that pale sky.
