Most people get around Bahrain by car — the island is compact and driving is on the right. Ride-hailing apps and metered taxis are widely available, and Bahrain Public Transport runs an air-conditioned bus network across the main towns. Car rental is straightforward with a valid licence (an international permit helps short-term visitors), and the King Fahd Causeway links Bahrain to Saudi Arabia by road. There is no metro or train, so plan around driving or ride-hailing for most trips.
