Amazing fort and sunset horseback ride! 😍

5.00It was a very pleasant experience at Fort Stable. The staff is very polite and kind, they walked with us through Bahrain Fort to the beach during sunset time, and were able to register good pictures of this beautiful experience. It’s visible that they treat their horses very well, and one should consider this when planning horse riding. I was even able to practice galloping a bit inside the stable. They also offer water and coffee, so it’s a nice moment to get to know them better and ask questions. Thank you so much for this amazing experience!! Pedro
Welcoming, knowledgeable, great experience and lots of fun with great horses and staff!

5.00We had wonderful experience! Between the welcoming staff, lots of history of the area especially the fort and tons of information of the horses, it was one of the best excursions we took on our trip and glad we chose this. It started with getting to know the horses and feed the horses, then getting acclimated with riding and the horses in the ring before guiding us on our trip to the fort on the horses. They gave us time to visit the fort and then walked us to the beach and got to ride the horses into the water a bit. When we got back they served us Arabic Tea and traditional snacks while we got a show of the Arabian horses in the ring. Then after we got to ride a decorated beautiful Arabian horse in the ring and take photos with it. If we come back to Bahrain, we will definitely visit The Fort Club again!
Unique experience!

Unforgettable Beach ride in Bahrain

5.00I had the most magical experience riding a beautiful chestnut thoroughbred called Awesome, along the beaches of Bahrain. From the moment I arrived, the team were welcoming, and clearly passionate about their horses. Awesome was well-trained, responsive, and an absolute joy to ride. The highlight was definitely the galloping along the beach and walking back through the sea. The entire experience felt safe and well-organized. Whether you’re an experienced rider or a complete beginner, this is a must-do activity in Bahrain. I can’t recommend it enough! I’ll definitely be back for another ride. 🐎🌊🌅

5.00I had an amazing experience at this horse stable at the Fort Club .The staff are incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely passionate about the wellbeing of the horses. The facility is clean, well-maintained, and creates a calm, welcoming atmosphere for both beginners and experienced riders. The horses are clearly well cared for,healthy, well-trained, and gentle, which made riding an absolute pleasure. I also appreciated how patient and encouraging the instructors were; they made sure we felt comfortable and confident throughout the entire session. Whether you’re looking to learn, improve your riding skills, or simply enjoy time around beautiful, well-kept horses, this stable is a fantastic choice. Highly recommended!
Definitely recommend it if you're looking for outdoor activities in Bahrain or something unique to do in Manama.

5.00Honestly, that horseback riding tour at The Fort Club was one of the best experiences I've had in Bahrain. I booked the sunset ride and it was absolutely incredible. Our guide, Olivia, was so friendly and patient, especially since I'm not an experienced rider. She made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable with their horse before we started. The route was gorgeous We went through green farms, past the historic Bahrain Fort, and then along the beach as the sun was setting. The views were stunning and made for amazing photos. The whole thing took about 90 minutes, and the group was small which made it feel more personal. Coffee and tea were included too. Plus, it was easy to find and had good parking. Perfect for beginners or anyone looking for a unique way to see Bahrain. The sunset timing was perfect. I already want to go back and try the sunrise ride!
