Private Tour of Kuwait City
Description
We'll pick you up from your hotel to kick off this exclusive private tour of Kuwait, offering you the most exceptional way to discover hidden gems in this Persian Gulf city!
Our first stop will be the Grand Mosque of Kuwait, the biggest mosque in the whole country, spanning over 45,000 square meters (147,637 square feet) of sacred space. Inside the mosque, you'll have the opportunity to marvel at its exquisite interior. Notably, you'll encounter a dome that measures an impressive 26 meters (85 feet) in diameter and soars to a height of 43 meters (141 feet).
The journey continues to an exceptional viewpoint within the city, offering a panoramic view of the iconic Kuwait Towers. Subsequently, we'll reach our second stop on the tour, the Sheikh Abdullah Al Salem Cultural Center. This remarkable venue hosts a variety of museums, including exhibits on Natural History, Science and Technology, Space, and the Museum of Islamic Arab Sciences, among others.
From there, we'll arrive at the House of Mirrors, a true gem of Kuwait. As we enter, we'll be treated to a delightful array of glass art pieces, leaving every visitor utterly enchanted. The subsequent stop on our private tour will bring us to the Tariq Rajab Museum, home to an extensive collection of jewelry dating back to pre-Islamic times.
Next, our exploration will lead us to Al Shaheed Park, offering insights into Kuwait's history, including visits to the Memorial Museum and the National Museum. Our journey culminates with an excursion to the Mubarakia Souk, the city's oldest market, where you can peruse an array of treasures, including carpets, silks, perfumes, and spices.
In this special place, we'll sit down to enjoy a traditional lunch at a local restaurant featuring chicken or beef, the ideal fuel to recharge your energy for the remainder of our tour!
Finally, we'll bring you back to your hotel in Kuwait and bring our private tour to an end 10 hours after pickup.
