Football icon David Beckham has been appointed to promote travel to Qatar ahead of the forthcoming FIFA World Cup latest this year. Qatar Tourism has launched a new campaign featuring the former Manchester United and England ace showing how the nation can be a great stopover break for all visitors.
From exploring the winding spice markets of Souq Waqif, soaking up local street art, cooking tacos, camping in the desert, and sightseeing around Doha by motorbike, Beckham accompanies local personalities to discover a country of countless surprises during his 48-hour stopover.
More than 80 per cent of the world’s population live within a six-hour flight from Qatar, making the destination an excellent place for a mini break. Through this new campaign, Qatar Tourism seeks to raise awareness of the world’s best value stopover packages, which are on offer from Qatar Airways.
