I dont think there's age limit. But being a single traveller isn't a problem. My sister been in qatar twice she dont have any problem about getting visa on arrival and also being a single woman.

But it was last year. I dunno about now.

If they have an American passport they can get a visit visa on arrival for 100QR ($27USD). You can also get a taxi at the airport to do some siteseeing, but they need to make sure they get back to the airport in plenty of time so they don't get stuck here.

I agree with Piet only there is a certain fee to be paid at the airport in getting such visa.

If she is American she can get a visa on arrival. Also transit visas is available when flying with Qatarair.
