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

Not good for solo travellers, they only cater to large groups this company is extremely over priced as I found out. Inquired 2 days before half day tour was to start and they confirmed tour was a go. I then called them the day before and they said it was cancelled because it was fully booked. Why would you confirm a tour then cancel it because it’s fully booked when you told me 2 days before it was confirmed. Horrible service. If you are looking for a tour of Bahrain I highly recommend Farid Hassan (mention his name to your hotel and they will know him) he does private tours starting at $25BHD and his customer service is excellent. This Farhat tour charges $60BHD for half a day way over priced and not to mention I found out they cancel a tour if there’s not enough people or 1 person just like me. If you only cater large groups then mention that on your website

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.

The fort was a half hour walk from my hotel, which was next to the Seef Mall. The ruins of the fort made for a pleasant and interesting afternoon of exploration. There is a museum nearby that offers an electronic guided tour. You have to pay for this, and for the entrance to the museum, but the ruin itself is free. There is an alfresco cafe next to the sea where you can have a quiet drink and chat. Apparently, there is a light show at night, although we didn't stay for it.

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.
