Streetsmart Bahrain

Streetsmart Bahrain is a travel guide that not only helps you see the country, but feel it, taste it… really get under its skin. Encompassing mainstream must-sees and hidden gems, listings cover everything from the country’s ancient archaeological sites and eclectic souqs to its myriad restaurants and leisure options such as pearl-diving, desert-driving and where to lay your head after dark. But what gives this guide the edge are insider tips spread throughout by Bahrain's lifestyle-shapers (artists, chefs, designers, DJs etc.), who take you off the beaten track to discover hidden-away spots for tasty street food, shisha by the sea and tailors making suits to Savile row standards for a snip, to name a few examples. Enhancing the trip are interactive maps, guided walking tours, island drives and packed itineraries - all of which adds up to the next best thing to a cool, informed resident friend showing you around.
