<h3>i am travelling to dammam from Bangalore. Can i get off at Bahrain and go by private taxi by road?</h3>

I am joining my husband at Khobar. I am travelling from Bangalore . Since direct flight is available only to Bahrain, is there possibility that i can get off at Bahrain and then travel by private taxi by road to Khobar? Also my brother stays in Dammam and he will be picking me from Bahrain. Or should i have Bahrain visa?


<strong>Bahrain best answer:</strong>
<p><i>Answer by mr_brawny</i><br/>Its no problem. Once you are in Bahrain Air port, inform at the counter that you have your own transport and wouldnt want the Airline transport. They charge 20 Riyals (I dont know for what) and give you a reciept. Keep the receipt with you and you can travel with your own transport. They have never asked for the receipt at the border but I guess its in the system.</p>
