After picking you up at your hotel in Manama at the selected time, we'll head west to visit the Bahrain Fort. The drive will take about 20 minutes. 

Once we arrive at the fortress, we'll start to discover the Dilmun civilization and its trade at this strategic location between Mesopotamia and the Indus Valley. Then, we'll head to the temple of Barbar, which dates back over 3000 years

The town of Saar awaits us next. Did you know that the Honeycomb burial complex is protected by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site? We'll tell you all about its peculiarities and we will also make a stop in the town of A'ali, where more remains of these tombs can be found. 

Next, the tour will continue with a guided visit to the National Museum of Bahrain, located in Manama. In addition to its large size, this building offers a perfect compilation of more than 6,000 years of history.

Lastly, we'll end the tour by returning to your hotel after four hours of delving into the unknown civilization of the Dilmun.
