Does anyone know if boat transportation is available to Bahrain from Kuwait for a day trip?

I was wondering,how much it was,for 1 week in the Royal chalet or presidental chalets at the 'Hilton Resort Kuwait'?

Where exactly in Fahaheel is this restaurant with individual cabanas offering lebanese grilled chicken? any landmarks nearby?

Does anyone know anything about this hotel? The price is very reasonable, so it looks like a good option, but is it a good hotel to stay in for a couple of days?

I saw on your web site a place up north to go ride 4 wheelers and I'd like better directions on how to get there. Thank you

I am a college student interested in learning Arabic. By summertime, I will have completed 2 semesters of Arabic. I am extremely interested in continuing my learning of Arabic over the summer, and I was wondering where the best place to learn the language would be. Some things that are of importance to me are: quality of instruction, location of the school, and activities outside of the school. Since I am going alone, I want to study somewhere where I won't feel secluded or outside of society. Also, scenery is of great importance. All things considered, where would you guys recommend studying Arabic? (I want to study for a period of about 2 months...I'm not sure if that changes anything). ( I know I posted this about a month ago in the Sousse and Damascus forum; however, those are no longer options.)

Hi,

I'm travelling to Kuwait in a week for my job. I'll only be there for 3 days, one of which I have to myself and I intend to see the city and all its sights. As I am a female who will be travelling alone I am concerned about safety and also how to dress. Is Kuwait a safe city to explore alone? Obviously I will be conservatively dressed while there, I am just wondering how conservative I should be? As the weather will be hot, is it ok for a woman to wear open toed shoes or flip flops or should I have my feet completely covered? I will most likely have my legs covered and arms too but if it is very hot would I be OK to bare my arms in a t-shirt or legs in cropped trousers? Of course mini skirts and halter tops are out of the question but is a little exposed skin ok to make the climate more tolerable.

Also I have a question about a Visa. I am aware that as an Irish citizen I can purchase my visa at the airport when I arrive. Can somebody please tell me if this can be paid for with a credit card or if it must be paid for with cash (and if cash is only accepted, is it only Kuwait Dinars?). Finally, are there ATMs in the airport?

Thanks in advance for any help,

Lauren

I have been told that a couple can not stay in a hotel in Kuwait without a marriage license and it has to be in Arabic. Can anyone verify this?

Trying to find out if my $$ is worth anything there.... The exchange rate is $1 us dollar to $3.5 Dinar... but what does that really buy me? Tell me the price of a soda and I'll get the picture!

Hello,
I am planning a trip to Kuwait in the coming months. Anything worth seeing apart from Kuwait city in a 8 days time ?
I thought of spending 3-4 days somewhere other than in Kuwait city. Any tips ?
A friend of mine working in the oil sector - that I have lost touch with - suggested it is also a good place for working. I would like to get in touch with people working in the financial sector in order to have this view confirmed. Anybody of you working in that sector can reply to this posting and give me suggestions for places to visit and impressions regarding his working experience there ? It would be nice to meet once I am there. Of course replies from anyboy willing to help are very wellcome
Thank you to everybody helping

Are there any tennis clubs in Kuwait? Are any attached to one of the sports clubs? Are there any indoor tennis places? I am looking for somewhere to take lessons and to play with others and it would be a bonus if it was a place where there was also a gym etc so I could join all of it. Thanks.

Hello everyone, just a quick one for you.
I am off to Kuwait in a few months so I'm going to get my head in the books and learn some Arabic. I have been looking around at some of the self - teach computer packages available and it seems that the 'Rosetta Stone Arabic level 1-2' is pretty comprehensive. It is also, by far, the most expensive. So, before I end up re-mortgaging the house to pay for it, I was wondering if anyone of you had any experience or recommendations that might help me on my way. Many thanks in advance for any replies.

Please help. Does anyone knows where to buy Distilled drinking water here in kuwait?
