What you will experience
- Al Fateh Grand Mosque: one of the largest mosques in the world and a landmark of Manama. On Fridays the mosque is closed to visitors, so this stop is a photo stop from outside.
- Bahrain National Museum: discover the island's story, from Dilmun to modern Bahrain. On Tuesdays, when the museum is closed, we visit the House of Basket Weaving (Bayt Al Sullal) instead, where artisans weave palm fronds into traditional crafts.
- Bahrain Fort (Qal'at al-Bahrain): walk through a UNESCO World Heritage Site where layers of ancient cities meet sea and palm tree views.
- Bab Al Bahrain and Manama Souq: step into the old heart of the city for local atmosphere and souvenirs.
Hospitality included
