5Fadhell was a brilliant...
Fadhell was a brilliant tour guide. We loved his stories and anecdotes sharing the history and culture of Bahrain. We were not rushed anywhere had plenty of time to explore and wander. He also gave us a great restaurant recommendation at the end and even dropped us there.
5A great tour with a very knowledgeable and friendly guide.
I really had a great time with Maher, he is very friendly and a great tour guide. He has many great facts about the country and he is clearly very passionate about what he does. My personal highlights were the camel farm and the burial mounds. I also feel the tour was good value for money.
5Amazing experience in Bahrain
We had an amazing experience in Bahrain thanks to our guide Maher. From the moment we booked, he was very professional and sent us all the necessary information, which was very reassuring. Maher is very attentive and adapts perfectly to the group. He is also a great photographer and takes the time to capture beautiful memories. His kindness and excellent knowledge of the country’s culture made the experience even more interesting. I highly recommend Maher to anyone looking to discover Bahrain in the best possible way!
5An educational and inspiring tour in Bahrain
Simply perfect. Perfect timing, perfect content, and perfect conversations with the guide. An incursion into the dessert complemented with camels and Formula 1.
5Excellent Tour
My husband & I had a very enjoyable half day tour with Maher. He was communicative, friendly, informative and helpful. The tour itself was a great mix of different experiences. Highly recommend!
5Fantastic tour/guide
Maher, was the best tour guide i have had in a long time! Very knowledgeable about Bahrain and it's history. He taught my friends and I many things about Bahrain that we did not know. 10/10 would definitely tour again.

About Manama
Manama, Bahrain's capital, is a Gulf waterfront city where glass towers stand beside an old souq, grand mosques and relics of the pearling trade.
Manama sits on the north-eastern coast of Bahrain's main island, where the old gate of Bab Al Bahrain opens into the souq's narrow lanes of spices, gold, fabric and household goods. The Bahrain National Museum on the waterfront follows the island's story from the Dilmun civilisation to the pearl trade, and the Al Fateh Grand Mosque, with its large white dome, is one of the biggest in the Gulf.
Top-ranked sights in Manama: Al Fateh Grand Mosque, Al Areen Wildlife Park & Reserve, Shaikh Isa Bin Ali House.
