Buses
A huge bus network connects the different parts of Doha, as well as all the other cities of Qatar. The company that currently runs Doha's public transportation, Mowasalat Karwa, has rapidly expanded the bus system. It is not only economical but also saves you from traffic congestion and stress. Smart cards can be purchased at Mowasalat's main bus station in Old Al Ghanim, as well as several small grocery stores. They can also be topped up at Ooredoo's self-service machines. If you want to ride the bus without a card, you usually need to pay a flat fee.
