Great tour! - Khaled loves Bahrain and does his best to share his love with others. If we walked around the old city of Muharraq on our own, we would see a maximum of 20% of the interesting places. A lot of historical information, visits of old houses, great atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Fantastic Historic & Cultural Tour! - We absolutely loved this walking tour of Muharraq/the Pearling Path — it is THE perfect way to see the Pearling Path and learn about Bahraini history, culture & sample some traditional snacks. We thoroughly enjoyed our time, and we saw and learned so much more than if we’d tried to do it without a guide. Mr. Khaled was a wonderful guide — he is kind, friendly and knowledgeable. He made this tour an exceptional experience! I am looking forward to doing more of his tours in the future!

Khalid offered an easygoing cultural and educational experience exploring parts of the Pearling Path and Bahrain houses that have been transformed into marvelous public spaces giving a glimpse into this wonderful island. Highly recommended.

You might get overwhelmed! - My man Khaled is the best man for the job. The dude is super cool, professional, and knowledgeable about everything. My group learned a lot from him and saw many interesting locations. But I forgot to tip him at the end, so if you go, remember to take care of him because he'll definitely take care of you.
