  • 4Full Day City Tour Kuwait

    The tour program was comprehensive, covering different aspects of Kuwait City and the desert. Unfortunately, due to the preparations for Ramadan, the Mosque and the Museum were closed. Nevertheless the guide gave us good information about other sites that we visited

  • 5Entertaining tour and a very nice guide

    We had a very good time during our tour of Kuwait. Everything was arranged to suit our schedule, we were picked up from the airport and taken on an entertaining drive around the highlights of the city, and later to the desert. I booked this tour completely last minute, but our guide responded promotly and was very communicative. Thanks to this tour we spent our long layover in Kuwait in a fun way.

About Kuwait City

Kuwait City is a Gulf capital on a bay, with striking modern towers, old souqs, a grand mosque and a long maritime past.

Kuwait City lies on the southern shore of Kuwait Bay in the north-western Gulf, a capital of wide highways, modern towers and a long waterfront corniche. Its symbol is the Kuwait Towers, three slender spires finished in 1979, the tallest with a sphere that holds a restaurant and a viewing platform. The Grand Mosque, with a huge central dome, stands near the Seif Palace and the old centre.
