Excellent tour with top guide - This tour is top! Hasher from Airhome Travels informed me well in advance of pick-up time and content of the trip. He showed me many highlights and provided me with lots of very interesting information. Hasher is a very enjoyable person and this tour gives excellent value for money, including a 20’ boat ride so you can see the Manama skyline from another angle. Great trip 👍

Bahrain trip May 2024 - Great city tour. We enjoyed Royal camel farm a lot. Camels are super friendly and comfortable with tourists around. Guide is good, knowledgeable, speaks good English. Car is very comfortable. One feedback is that oil museum and tree of life should be included in the package. These places are close to Royal camel farm.

A must-do when you’re in Bahreïn! - I took the private tour because I wanted to visit the places that I was the most interested in (Al Fateh mosque, Tree of life, Qalat Al Bahrein, Canel farm, Equestrian center, A’ali pottery, Bab Al Bahrein, Manama Souk and the national museum). The team was very patient with me during the booking process and answered all my questions about the places I wanted to cover. My guide was Hasher and he is very kind, patient and knowledgeable, a good driver and photographer. You can ask him all your questions about Bahreïn. So be attentive to his insightful answers. We had Lunch at a traditional restaurant Danet Al Tawawish in Manama souk and it was so good. Bahrein is a quite beautiful country and people are nice. Don’t miss going to Haji’s Cafe. Ps: Bahrein is a Muslim country so to all the ladies, please dress modestly/cover yourself properly.

A great way to explore Bahrain 🇧🇭 - Hasher was an excellent guide and the tour was a lot of fun! He has so much knowledge about this beautiful country and answered every question I had. He was also very kind and even went out of his way to pick me up at my out of the way hotel, drop me off at a different location after the tour, and recommend other tours when my other options fell through. This tour is a wonderful way to explore Bahrain! Thank you, Hasher!

Great Service During the Flooding - I happened to schedule this tour on the day of the Biblical rain (1 year of rain in 1 day). We tried to do as much as we could, but the roads were closed to some sights, and other sites were totally closed because of flooding. Hasher was very accommodating and was able to include me on another tour the next morning for the parts we were not able to do during the flooding.

Beautiful tour - Our guide did a great job by showing us the most interesting places of the island. He knows very well his country and was very kind to show it to my wife and me. He gave us enough time to explore every stop and even took great pictures for us.

Beautiful tour - The tour was great, very informative and interesting. The nice man was super friendly and entertaining. The pick-up (from the airport) and back again went really well as discussed. There was a short trip by boat, about 15 minutes. Before lunch there were free snacks and water. The food was super tasty and plentiful. I can only recommend the tour👍
