Quick view of Bahrain

Carlo_G, Dec 2022

Nice tour. Sometimes it feels a bit rushed but on the other hand there is not really much to see in Bahrain. The tour guide was extremely nice.

A pleasant and enjoyable day! 👏

RosanaLucia_S, Nov 2022

My daughter and I loved the tour! The itinerary is complete and covers Bahrain from north to south. Bharti a tour guide and Touqeer driver, were our companions on this adventure. She knows a lot about the history, explained everything during the tour and left us with time to visit the places. This made us feel comfortable and made us have a pleasant and enjoyable day! I certainly recommend this tour !!! 👏👏👏

Grandeur of the Grand Mosque to the Transcendental Tree of Life

Brian_C, Nov 2022

How many an ancient countries so rich in history can you say you have traveled in a day? Abbas A. Is absolutely the right guide for this terrific tour of twists and turns through Bahraini history to present day impact. I could not have been luckier to land a solo trip with driver Nixon while Abbas went into great detail and anecdotal storylines that help paint a memorable canvas of how Bahrain's Dilmun history would have been identified, to the more "modern" day kingdom rule since the 1700's, peppered with deeply rooted, rich religious historical impacts from the Grand Mosque to time-defying tree.

Great day Trip to see Bahrain's highlights

Morten_F, Nov 2022

Very good day trip, even if execution did not match itiniary. Muharraq souq was not visited No time for Lunch at Bab el Bahrain Souk Visit at F1 track is very unsatisfactory: You visit a souvenir shop, and barely see the track. Camel Farm was very nice. Interesting to see the oil well, as this is placed in the middle of the industrial area, with oil wells, nodding donkeys and refineries all over the place. All in all, a great tour, with easy pickup and drop off from Manama. Just make sure to grap a quick bite while at the souq.

Overview of Bahrain

Elizabeth_C, Aug 2022

Bahrain is a small country. On this day-long trip, we were able to see many of the highlights on the largest island.

Terrific tour of Bahrain!

Karl_E, Jul 2022

Abbas is an absolutely superb guide. Really knows the history and culture of his country, and communicates superbly. Enthusiastic and committed. One of the best one-day introductory tours to a capital or country that we have experienced over the course of many years of traveling globally. He is a great friendship ambassador for the Kingdom of Bahrain. Also, the bus driver, Mr. Sahar drove safely and has a wonderful personality.

I really enjoyed this...

Jason_H, Jun 2022

I really enjoyed this very informative tour and Husain was a really good guide. I highly recommend visiting Bahrain

A good way to see Bahrain's main sites

Adrian_H, Apr 2022

I had a short time in Bahrain and this trip was a good way to experience it. It ended up being a private tour, as no one else booked it and was also during Ramadam. This made the trip shorter than usual and I did feel a little hurried by the guide at times. It was great having everywhere so quiet and too myself. If you are in Bahrain for a short time,this is worthwhile.

Best way to see Bahrain

ConstanseM_S, Mar 2022

Great way of seeing the highlights of Bahrain in one day. Enough time at each stop and knowledgable guides and you can always visit again places that were particularly interesting. Exceeded expectations

Manama in a day

Patricia_W, Feb 2022

The itinerary was ideal in terms of coverage.. the old, the new and more. Ayat was very knowledgeable and made the tour very enjoyable. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for coverage of multiple sites in a day.

Great tour and guide

Cynthia_W, Dec 2021

Although Bahrain has some interesting sights, the best part of the tour was the guide, Husain. He told me so much about both the history of Bahrain and the current culture and government. He was friendly and knowledgeable, and it’s obvious he is very proud of his country.

Great trip.

Laura_B, Oct 2021

All the sites you need to see in Bahrain!

Dennis O, Jan 2020

I enjoyed this tour. It took me to all the sites I had pre-planned to see in Bahrain. It even added a few others I had not considered! The guide was friendly, and the driver was adept!

Excellent tour of Bahrain sights
