Walid was an extraordinary guide on this wonderful tour around Kuwait City. He was knowledgable and kind and tremendously enthusiastic and I feel as if I saw the highlights of the city in a relatively short amount of time. I highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to get his bearings in this special city.
Must do to explore more around the city

Waleed and I had great conversations in which he explained a lot about the country, the culture, the history and local people during the 4 hour drive through the desert. It was time well spent!
Very good tour and guide

We did a half day tour of Kuwait city. The car was extremely comfortable. The tour covered all the main sights and we had the choice of visiting whatever we wanted, which was great. The guide was excellent and had a good knowledge of all the sights. He also took us for an amazing meal at the Souk. I would totally recommend this tour!

This is the perfect tour for a short stopover. I had around 6 hours, and that was plenty to see the highlights of the city. I was able to curate it as I wanted, which was perfect. Waleed, my guide, was very knowledgeable about the city and its history. He was kind, and I felt very safe as a solo female traveler. One piece of advice: if you are doing this tour while in transit through Kuwait (layover, stopover)- make sure to ask (in advance) for an address to put down on your visa form (visa is given on arrival in the airport).
Rushed experience for the money paid

Expensive for the rushed time of just 4 hours. Would be far more relaxed & enjoyable if not on the clock. Not enough time at all stops to fully appreciate, & you feel awkward due to it. And several places are merely passed by. It was a nice insight, but time constraints make the experience notably reduced in value.

Please avoid this provider. He simply did not show up as agreed, despite booking and additional WhatsApp confirmation. No apology, nothing. When hotel staff or I called, the guide simply hung up. Stay away to avoid disappointment. In Kuwait, it is better to book tours through the hotel with trustworthy operators or drivers and never pay in advance!!
Amazing tour

My wife and I took this tour with Waleed. He is a very experienced traveler and also very knowledgeable of the history of Kuwait. We felt like we learned a lot of the country in those approx. 4 hours. The transportation was comfortable. We took this tour over the long weekend of Prophet Mohamed's birthday, so the mosque was closed. It can be improved that alternative attractions or activities should be presented when the main attractions are closed. Other than that, my wife and I had a great time.
