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
- Best hotels near the scene

I was there 6 months ago and had a mixed time. Wondering if things have changed.

Trying to decide between this and Colombia.

Cheers

I was there in March and prices were about average. Spent about $120/day all-in.

My tip: midweek is much better.

I was there in February and prices were exactly as described. Spent about $120/day all-in.

My tip: avoid weekends.

Been there 8 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The consistency is what keeps me coming back.

First time was good but could have been better. Second time was 10x smoother. Experience makes all the difference.

Word of caution — be careful with street touts. Other than that, great destination.

Adding my experience: scene has stayed the same since pre-COVID. Biggest change: prices up 15-20%.
