  • At Kuwait, you can grab your wheels from leading rental brands such as Sixt, Budget and Hertz.

  • Whether you book with Sixt or a different supplier, be sure to check the coverage on your Kuwait car hire. Some companies include a collision damage waiver (CDW), while others charge extra for it.

  • Choosing a one-way car hire can be your secret weapon for cheaper deals. Check 'Return car to a different location' when searching for a car for hire in KWI. Providers often have to move vehicles between branches, which means you can bag some excellent one-way prices.

  • Save money on fuel by choosing a car hire in Kuwait that offers a 'Fair fuel policy.' You pick up the car with a full tank and bring it back full, so you're only paying for what you use.

  • Explore without limits by choosing a rental with 'Unlimited mileage.' Located under the 'Policies' filter, these rides let you drive as far as you like without paying more.

Compare car hire types from Kuwait (KWI)

  • Small: Including classes like mini and economy, this cheap Kuwait rental car gets you moving without breaking the bank. These nimble, fuel-efficient rides are ideal for short trips and city driving.

  • Medium: Choose from compact and intermediate cars that combine comfort, space and fuel efficiency. Easy to handle in traffic and roomy enough for longer drives, they're well-suited to most travel needs.

  • Large: You've got the bags, the kids, the snacks, the lot. Large vehicles have got the capacity to fit it all without breaking a sweat. Great for longer journeys, this KWI car hire category includes full-size cars.

  • SUV: Get a higher ground clearance and an open view of the journey ahead in an SUV. Whether you're winding through tough terrain or cruising along smooth highways, many offer all-wheel drive to help you tackle any road.

  • Van: With options like commercial vans and trucks, this category of car for rent in Kuwait is built to handle heavier loads and bigger groups. They're tough, dependable, and ready for whatever your trip demands.

Insurance and optional extras

  • Choosing excess insurance for your KWI car hire offers peace of mind. It protects you from paying a big excess fee in case of theft or damage. Insurance policies aren't the same across all rental providers, so give them a quick comparison.

  • From GPS units to mobile Wi-Fi hotspots, the right extras can totally transform your drive. Think about which extras will suit your needs when you rent a car in Kuwait.

Good to know

  • Rental age requirements generally aren't a one-size-fits-all. Providers can set their own policies, and if you're under the minimum age, you could be hit with extra charges or rules. Check the specific rules for each supplier before booking your rental in Kuwait.

  • Add a car seat to your KWI car rental booking if you're planning to travel with the kids. Regulations change from one place to another, but using a child seat suited to their age, size and weight is always the safest way to travel.

  • You'll need some documents when you get to the rental desk. As a general rule, bring a valid driver's licence, a credit card with enough funds for the excess (most companies don't accept debit cards), and another form of photo ID. Your booking will outline the exact requirements.

  • If you're unfamiliar with driving in Kuwait, don't forget that traffic here keeps to the right side of the road.

  • Stay within the local speed limits. Usually that's around 40kph in built-up areas and 110kph or so on highways, unless signed otherwise.

  • Leave your vehicle behind if you'll be consuming alcohol. Kuwait enforces a zero-tolerance policy on drinking and driving, and penalties may apply if you break the rules.

Drive smarter from the start

  • Go from zero to adventure once you've collected the keys to your KWI car hire. You'll have the freedom to go wherever you want, but if you're headed to central Kuwait, it'll take you about 20 minutes to cover the 16 kilometres or so north.

  • In peak hour, expect the drive from Kuwait to the centre to take as long as 40 minutes.

  • Aim to travel outside high-traffic periods for a smoother trip. 8am is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.

  • You can also get the keys to a car hire in Kuwait. If you don't need a set of wheels immediately on arrival, hold off until you're in the city and avoid paying for unused rental days.

Hit the road: Where to drive from Kuwait (KWI)

  • Before you go anywhere else, do some sightseeing around Kuwait first. Top attractions like Kuwait Towers and The Grand Mosque of Kuwait City are a great opening act for your trip.
