Wego, the travel app and the online travel marketplace, has partnered with Bahrain Tourism and Exhibitions Authority (BTEA) to spotlight the Kingdom of Bahrain as a premier travel destination, highlighting its unique cultural heritage, top attractions, and tourism innovations to global travellers. This partnership comes as Bahrain is investing in its tourism infrastructure with the launch of new luxury resorts, event venues, and expanded cultural festivals.
Bahrain, known as the Pearl of the Gulf, is an archipelago offering history, luxury, and modernity. Wego will leverage its platform to highlight Bahrain's landmarks, including the UNESCO-listed Qal'at al-Bahrain (قلعة البحرين, Bahrain Fort), the Bab Al Bahrain Souq (باب البحرين), the Al Dar Islands (الجزر الدار), and the world-famous Bahrain International Circuit, home of Formula 1 racing.
