Professional, knowledgeable, and interesting guide for our half-day outside Bahrain. Just the experience I was looking for to complete my visit.
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Thank you so much Jeffrey for your wonderful feedback. I was honoured to escort you and show you around Bahrain. Please accept my best regards.

Absolutely the best experience in Bahrain. Everything went great from the moment i booked the tour, as they contacted me right away and informed me all the following steps. The communication and attitude was great. And i want to mention, Alya, our tour guide, she made our day and basically made this tour awesome. The tour was informative and we spent enough time at each site.
I would definitely recommend them and if i ever come back to Bahrain, i will contact them to arrange more tours!
