Has anyone been to Bahrain recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Transport tips
I was there last year and had a great time. Wondering if things have changed.
Any recent trip reports would be helpful.
Cheers

Adding my experience: scene has evolved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more online activity.

First time was a learning experience. Second time was 10x smoother. Experience makes all the difference.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

Been there 10 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The value for money is what keeps me coming back.
