Tour Al Muharraq and its famous pearl route with this tour from Manama. You'll see the most important places in a business that is fundamental to Bahrain's economy.

Al Muharraq Pearling Path Private Tour

We'll pick you up at your hotel in Manama at 9 am and drive to Al Muharraq, the ancient capital of Bahrain. There we'll follow the famous Pearling Path to visit the most significant buildings for this industry in Bahrain.

First, we'll visit the oldest dhow workshop in the country, where we'll discover how these traditional Arab sailing boats are made and their current use, particularly in search of pearls.

Next, we'll visit the Al Qaisariya Market, which has over 100 years of history. As we explore the stalls, we'll learn about its role in Bahrain's economic evolution.

Another key location on the Pearling Trail is the Bin Matar House, a museum dedicated to a prominent merchant in the pearling industry. We'll explore the rooms and learn about the family's contributions in the Gulf region during the 19th and 20th centuries.

Finally, we'll head to the Al-Ghus House, significant as it belonged to one of Bahrain's noted divers. The guide will provide insights about this individual, the first to have contact with pearls.

The tour will conclude with our arrival in Manama four hours later.
