A camel farm and the Bahrain International Circuit of Formula 1 are included in this excursion to the Sakhir Desert.
Description
We will pick you up at the scheduled time from your hotel or the airport in Manama to begin this tour to the Sakhir Desert. The first stop will be the Royal Camel Farm, founded by Sheikh Mohammed Bin Salman Al Khalifa. You will have time to interact with camels and speak with their caretakers.
The next highlight is the Bahrain International Circuit, the primary venue for Formula 1 races in the Middle East. You will have the opportunity to take a photo next to an F1 car.
The tour continues to the first oil site in the Gulf region, which began oil production in 1931. Next, we will visit the Tree of Life, approximately 400 years old and standing about 10 meters (32.8 feet) tall; it is the only tree in the area.
After that, we will explore a pottery workshop where craftsmen create clay pots. Finally, we will visit the Dilmun Burial Mounds, dating back 4200 years.
After 4 hours, the tour will conclude back at the meeting point.
