Yes. For the most part, while both countries are fairly conservative, Saudi Arabia tends to be much more conservative. Both countries are Sunni Muslim, and have large populations of Wahabbis (Strict sect of Sunni Islam). However, Qatar is not as strict as Saudi Arabia when it comes to consumption of alcohol, as it is allowed by owning a permit or purchasing from a hotel bar. In Saudi Arabia, alcohol is allowed nowhere, and there are serious punishments for those who smuggle it. In general, Qatar is somewhat more liberal about certain things then Saudi, but both countries are quite conservative by Western standards.
