The journey combines the Doha Metro\u2019s Red Line with the Lusail Tram\u2019s Orange or Pink Line.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Step 1: Board the Doha Metro Red Line<\/b><\/p>\n<p><img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-9158\" src=\"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image4-1-600x400.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image4-1-600x400.png 600w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image4-1-1024x683.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image4-1-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image4-1.png 1125w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Begin your trip at the nearest Doha Metro station. All three lines connect to the Red Line, which runs north to Lusail. Purchase a travel card or single-use token from a vending machine or ticket counter before boarding.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The same card is valid for use on both the Metro and the Lusail Tram, making transfers simple. Services start early in the morning, around 5:30 AM, and continue until late at night. Trains run frequently, and announcements are made in both Arabic and English.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Step 2: Travel north to Legtaifiya Station<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ride the Red Line northbound towards Lusail. Your key transfer point is Legtaifiya Metro Station, one of the newest and most efficient stops in the network.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Legtaifiya connects directly to the Lusail Tram system. Once you arrive, follow the overhead signs marked \u201cTram Transfer\u201d. You won\u2019t need to exit the station or re-enter through another gate. It\u2019s a quick transition that makes the trip comfortable even in summer heat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Step 3: Transfer to the Lusail Tram<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At Legtaifiya, board the Lusail Tram (Orange Line) heading toward Lusail Central. It will stop near Place Vend\u00f4me Mall.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Trams are modern, air-conditioned, and operate at short intervals during the day, especially around mall hours. Services start early morning (about 5:30 AM) and continue until around 11:30 PM.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Tip:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Check the latest schedules via the Qatar Rail App or Moovit before travelling.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Step 4: Alight at Tarfat South Tram Station<\/b><\/p>\n<p><img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-9159\" src=\"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image2-1-585x400.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"585\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image2-1-585x400.png 585w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image2-1-768x525.png 768w, https:\/\/www.propertyfinder.qa\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image2-1.png 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 585px) 100vw, 585px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your final stop is Tarfat South Tram Station, the closest to Place Vend\u00f4me Mall.
