On April 2019, my husband and I were on a short trip to Bahrain for his work. On the day he had mostly off, we sent a tour request to many agencies in Bahrain, we booked a tour online by other agency and the price was very attractive , but no one showed up, we noticed it was a scam, we were very disappointed as they charged us 50 % of the total amount- Be careful many scammers listing their budgeted tours to attract others they are not areal agencies ,they act like a real agencies by publishing faked pages on google ,Instagram and face book- usually they charge very attractive prices to attract others. As recommended by the Hotel Concierge, we contacted Ishtar Gate tours, we reserved a half day tour, second day, the guide was waiting for us in the lobby. We asked the guide to customize our tour, she was good in customizing the tour for us- we extended our tour with him, interesting information given to us by referring to the facts and figures in a professional manner- she was well educated. The guide tried her best to show us as much as she can, added interesting attractions even they were not in our program such as Arad Fort and Traditional Dhow yard. VIP service, Private tour, Informative tourist guide -100% worth the price we paid. 2018 i visited Bahrain and we joint a group tour in a bus with another agency, the price was higher than what we paid this private tour- it was boarding and the guide was busy - have to answer all of us in the same time. Highly Recommended.

Mr. Fadhel was an excellent tour guide. I reached out to Fadhel and gave him my family's interest in a half day tour (we visited as part of a cruise). He was quick to respond and provided excellent details. Overall our booking experience was very smooth. As for the tour, it delivered more than we expected. Fadhel kept us safe and on time. The tour was very informative. We would highly recommend Fadhel/Tejwal Tours.
