Bahrain Bus 10: Complete Guide — Clockwise Circular via Muharraq, Airport & Hidd

Bahrain Bus 10 is a clockwise circular route looping through Manama, Muharraq (المحرق), the Airport, Hidd (الحد), and back to Manama via Salmaniya Hospital. Bahrain Bus Route 10 pairs with Route 11, which runs the same loop in reverse.

About Bahrain Bus 10

Bahrain Bus Route 10 covers one of the most comprehensive loops in the BPTC network, connecting Manama to the Muharraq governorate — Bahrain’s second-largest urban area and a historic pearling and trading center — before continuing to the airport, Arad Health Centre, and the port town of Hidd. The route then passes through Mina Salman, Bahrain’s main commercial port, before returning through Kuwait Avenue and Salmaniya Hospital back to Manama.

Because this is a full circular route, you can board at any stop and eventually return to your starting point without needing to transfer, making it a flexible option for visiting multiple areas across the eastern side of the island in one continuous trip.

Fare and Tips

Bahrain Bus Route 10 charges the standard 275 Fils GO Card fare regardless of how much of the loop you ride. If you need to travel in the opposite direction around the same loop, Route 11 covers the identical stops anticlockwise.

Planning Your Trip on Route 10

Because Bahrain Bus Route 10 is a full loop, it’s worth thinking about which direction actually gets you to your destination faster before boarding — riding the wrong direction around a circular route means covering nearly the whole loop instead of a short direct hop. If your destination is closer to the start of the clockwise sequence (Muharraq, the Airport, Hidd), Route 10 is usually the quicker choice.

Muharraq itself is one of Bahrain’s most historically rich areas, having served as the country’s capital until the early 20th century, and its old town features some of the best-preserved traditional Bahraini architecture on the island.
