We had a wonderful trip with an excellent guide! Angela and her driver were most accommodating and knowledgeable! The car was comfortable and cool. Water was provided. They took us off the beaten path to include something we wanted to see that was not part of the scheduled itinerary.? We never felt rushed or hurried. Would highly recommend!!

Husain was extremely knowledgeable and personable. We will take another of his tours on our return to Bahrain. Highly recommended!

We took a half day tour with our driver Mr Kader and a quite excellent guide Mr Fadhel. We started at the excellent museum where Mr Fadhel brought the exhibits to life but only after an unplanned trip to the Grand Mosque which was amazing. Further trips to the fort, burial grounds and a potters factory made for a fascinating trip. The tour was a fascinating overview of Bahrain but Mr Fadhel added so much perspective on so many subjects I could have listened to him all day. I have no hesitation recommending this tour

When you see this tree, you will just wonder how it survives the desert heat and always remain green throughout the year for over 400 years. Yeah, it's right 400+ years! It's a mystery you must see. It is 40 KM from the main city (Manama), you can get there by car on your own or a tourist agency can take you there.

I recommend to use a different agency because of the following: 1. This tour is more expensive as it is advertised as a "Private Tour". Nevertheless, we were picked up at the hotel and were introduced to other people. I asked the guide for clarification and he informed me that this is not a private tour and suggested to write an email to the agency - which I did directly after the tour. Although the agency confirmed that it was the "cheaper" group tour, they refused to transfer the difference of the prices. Furthermore, they were neither customer oriented nor cooperative as they did not reply to my email at the beginning and copy pasted the answers without answering my questions or read my arguments. 2. The tour itself is very stressful as you have no time to look around (e.g., in the museum). The tour guide follows a very strict time table which prevents customers from enjoying the tour / get a proper look at everything. As a result, you are running around without getting an impression of the history of the city. 3. I have to admit that the visit of the mosque is a highlight. However, this part of the tour is outsourced to the mosque itself and they provide a guide for 45 minutes.

I really enjoyed this tour, given by a local Bahrani who was very informative on the history of Bahrain dating back for centuries.
