Hi,

That's exactly my question. I'm planning a travel to Bahrain with a female friend but I was wondering whether I could have any issues with the police, as we aren't related to each other.

Also, do you think I will have any issues booking a room together in Bahrain?

Thanks.

No issues anywhere.

Bahrain you can show up at a hotel with three woman to stay, in one room and they won't bat an eyelid (except charge you extra for guests) 😂..... Excluding the family hotels frequented by saudis.

@XTangÂ But, won't we have issues traveling by car within Saudi Arabia?We both are expats, no tourists, both as well with Iqama. I'm afraid of this:https://stepfeed.com/saudi-police-arrest-unmarried-couple-who-were-in-a-car-together-5674I don't want to get arrested and deported just for sharing a car with a female friend!Thanks a lot!
