SABTCO Bus Schedule: Khobar - Bahrain by angsta

Does anyone have an updated version of this? I have two different versions and i'm wondering which is the current one. 07:25 Vs 08:00? 09:55 Vs 11:00? 13:15 Vs 13:55? Many thanks.

Abdulkareem179

Go downtown to the Saptco Bahrain stop and ask. If that's not possible call them and soak in English. Ask them what you need and I'm sure you'll get it eventually, but remember in English! :-) Read More
