  • 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.
