Itinerary
You will visit the Al-Fateh Mosque, one of the largest in the world and the largest in Bahrain, capable of accommodating up to 7,000 worshippers. On Friday, a day of prayer in the Kingdom, non-Muslims are not allowed to enter and tours are not made inside the mosque: in this case the visit will be carried out as an external photo stop, to admire the architecture and take panoramic photographs.
You will be faced with the Tree of Life, which grows solitary in the heart of the desert. This tree, which is hundreds of years old, stands in an arid area, devoid of water or natural resources. Its incredible ability to survive meant that it was surrounded by numerous legends, making it a place shrouded in mystery and magic.
Continuing, we will take you to discover the first oil well ever found in Bahrain, a place that marks the beginning of an era. It was here, in the heart of this ancient land, that the first oil field in the Persian Gulf was revealed, kicking off a chapter that would change the fate of these lands forever.
We will then visit the camel farm. You can admire these magnificent specimens up close by taking wonderful souvenir photos
We will visit the Bahrain International Circuit. Built in 2004, it was the first circuit to host the F1 Grand Prix in an Arab country
Bahrain Fort also known as Portuguese Fort, is one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Bahrain. Listed in 2005 this archaeological site is a testament to the countless history this country possesses.
Immerse yourself in the traditional Bahraini market where you will be enveloped by Arabic scents and spices. Here you will have time to try some traditional dishes or let yourself go shopping in search of the best souvenir to take with you forever

Hisham was an absolutely amazing guide and explained everything so well! Information, context and fun facts made the trip worthwhile. Company was clear in their comms and trip was prompt throughout. Price was really good and all inclusive. Water provided throughout, as well as snacks.
Hisyam was a good person. He guided us with respect. Thank you and we will recommend your travel to the others.
We had a great tour. Hesham was an excellent guide. We made some changes due to the extreme heat and he was very understanding. We would highly recommend this tour and guide.
After two different tours have been cancelled and finally booked with this one and I was very happy that this tour is still going ahead due to the issue with war even it is fine to go ahead at the moment and very quite. Formula One and Fort was my favourite one of the trip.
Thank you for choosing to explore Bahrain with us. We’re glad the tour gave you a positive and enjoyable experience. It’s great to hear that the Formula 1 Circuit and Bahrain Fort were among your favourite moments of the day. We truly appreciate your trust and hope to welcome you again in the future. Warm regards from the entire Bahrain Travellers team
Excellent tour with Hisham on the whole island, better even w/o tourists due to the situation in the Gulf. Without such a tour it is difficult to see the place, let alone understand it, past or present. A well spent day with an extremely competent guide. Thanks Hisham.
Dear Bogdan, thank you for your thoughtful words. We’re very pleased to know the tour helped you experience and better understand Bahrain from both a historical and cultural perspective. Hearing that the day felt so worthwhile and engaging means a great deal to us. Hisham will truly appreciate your feedback. Warm regards from the entire Bahrain Travellers team
We had a delightful day visiting Bahrain with our guide, Hesham. He is very devoted to explain to us the details of the places we were visiting so we could understand, and provide water, snacks and internet We couldn't have been in better hands. After the explanation we always had free time to take pictures. The itinerary is perfect for a full day and covers almost the whole country, being the reason why we chose this tour, and it fulfilled our expectations very positively. We surely recommend this tour for everyone who wants to enjoy not only a "city" but a full "country tour". We loved it.

Thank you for your recommendation and for choosing to explore the Kingdom with us. Warm regards from the entire Bahrain Travellers team
Amazing. Hisham was welcoming friendly and patient.. The tour itself was spectacular. SEEING AND WALKING THROUGH BAHRAIN HISTORY nothing can compare to that.
We’re truly pleased the experience allowed you to connect so deeply with Bahrain’s history and atmosphere. Hearing that the tour left such a memorable impression means a great deal to our team. Thank you for choosing to discover the Kingdom with us. Warm regards from the entire Bahrain Travellers team
We had a very good, extremely informative tour of Bahrain with Hesham. He was very open and extremely European-loose. We even got chips, dates and water from him during Ramadan. He said so many things about Bahrain and answered all of our questions. In addition, he had a funny and easy way of getting things across without getting boring. Furthermore, he took all the photos of us and was always ready for selfies. A clear recommendation! (Only downer: As important tests with the drivers were currently taking place on the Fomel-1 track, we were only allowed to view them to a very limited extent. But that was not the fault of the guide, it was due to the strict instructions of the Formula One leaders.
Vielen Dank für Ihre ausführliche und herzliche Bewertung. Es freut uns sehr zu hören, dass Ihnen die Tour mit Hesham so gut gefallen hat und Sie Bahrain auf eine informative und zugleich entspannte Weise erleben konnten. Besonders schön ist es zu wissen, dass Sie die Atmosphäre, die Gespräche und die gemeinsame Zeit während des Tages so geschätzt haben. Vielen Dank auch für Ihr Verständnis bezüglich der Einschränkungen an der Formel 1 Strecke. Wir hoffen, Sie eines Tages wieder in Bahrain begrüßen zu dürfen. Herzliche Grüße vom gesamten Bahrain Travellers Team
Hisham was an exquisite person: he answered all the questions asked and was always present for any need. The places visited were very interesting and the tour as a whole was conducted in a masterful way. Trust this agency, without thinking about it, because they know how to take care of their customers.
Caro Christian, grazie per le tue parole e per la fiducia che avete riposto in noi.

Sapere che vi siete sentiti seguiti e accolti durante tutta la giornata è per noi la soddisfazione più grande. Speriamo di rivedervi presto nel Regno. Un caro saluto da tutto il team Bahrain Travellers
Great day with silvana. The planned stops kind of happened as I was given some alternatives which sounded interesting so we went to those. We had a great time chatting and going through the history while going from place to place. The day has whizzed by One to book if your on a tight schedule
