Several people expressed their dissatisfaction with the way the services were set up for visitors to the floating Book Fair in comments on the post. A user wrote, "Badly organized event, no proper shuttle service is provided, long queues, long waiting time in the hot weather and no staff guiding visitors."

Another user commented, "I wish the shuttle busses are better in number to allow less waiting time, waiting to get the shuttle is ridiculous and frustrating for all. Poor event management."

Logos Hope Returns shared a few tips with their followers on Instagram for their smooth visit to the Book Fair:

Please park in the designated car park.
• A shuttle bus will be provided every 10-15 mins and will take approx. 15 mins to reach the ship.
• There could be lines both outside the port and next to the ship. To avoid crowds, we recommend visiting on weekdays.
• Don’t forget to bring small changes to the 0.5BHD entrance fee.
• The bookfair accepts cash and credit card payments (Visa and Mastercard). No contactless payments.
