A camel farm and the Bahrain International Circuit of Formula 1 are highlights of this excursion to the Sakhir Desert.

Description

At the scheduled time, we will pick you up 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 Mohammed Bin Salman Al Khalifa. Here, you'll have time to interact with the camels and their carers.

Next, we visit the Bahrain International Circuit, the main venue for Formula 1 races in the Middle East, where you can take a photo next to an F1 car.

We will then proceed to the first oil site in the Gulf region, which began production in 1931.

The tour continues to the Tree of Life, approximately 400 years old, standing nearly 10 metres (32.8 feet) tall and the only tree in the area.

Afterwards, we will visit a pottery workshop to observe craftsmen making clay pots. Finally, we will explore the Dilmun Burial Mounds, which are 4200 years old.

After 4 hours, the tour will conclude at the meeting point.
