mathaf bus
The Mathaf bus connects cultures on the hour and operates between the Museum of Islamic Art and Mathaf: Arab Museum of Modern Art. The free shuttle service operates from Wednesday to Sunday from 11am to 5pm. It takes about 25 to 35 minutes to reach either museum.
The Mathaf Bus is kindly sponsored by Occidental Petroleum of Qatar (Oxy Qatar).
Due to construction near the museum, the main road to Mathaf has been diverted. Download
