We spent 2 days in Kuwait City, capital of Kuwait. It was the first time I visited this country and I was really curious and excited to explore its capital city.
It was definitely not what we expected! Join us in this walking tour and THANKS FOR WATCHING!
KUWAIT was my country number 69!

Hi gabri, i think the video which you made ,shows the reality, i was in kuwait 3 times in the last 10 months,Kuwait ranks second after Qatar among GCC countries in terms of money and wealth,I've been all over this beautiful city,There are really great parts of the city or mall centers or streets that look really great and there are streets or residential areas or other things that are brutally neglected,but you were in the holy month of ramazan, during that time i could have recommended kuwait or other countries on the gulf to you.The city of Kuwait presented a project development plan (2018-2040)but there are just obstacles, but i'm sure this problem will be solved, after that there will be no such criticism from tourists.

Places i would recommend: .The avenues mall .Kuwait towers .The scientific center Marina hotel or the four seasons for a fantastic hotel

But compared to other cities in the region and Kuwait's neighbors, Kuwait has low infrastructure Dubai has a metro, Doha has a metro and Riyadh will be opened in a few months, but despite the heavy traffic, Kuwait has not yet thought of building a metro. The asphalt conditions of its streets are also very bad Despite being rich in oil, Kuwait should be doing better

If you dare drive the roads lol. I've been living here 5 years and fear driving. Citybus has a schedule on line. So does google maps. The taxis are not that expensive. If you can find a wanit (pickup trucks that are taxi services) it's even cheaper. I see you went to the mall in Sharq in the neighborhood you were staying. Check out the souks nearby especially where you got off the bus in Maliya. Also check out Avenues mall -- they have buses going there too.

Dude why did you come during Ramadan 😂, everything is shut Come in January or February, the weather is great (15-20 C), restaurants are amazing, the malls are the best in the world in Kuwait Sideways, these are well developed in few places in Kuwait where people actually walk (seaside), other places might not be that developed because people in general avoid walking outdoors because of the heat

YOu tell me - what did he say that is wrong or untrue??? You have gone to other cities abroad, like all the kuwaities do 18 times a year, and you know what other cities look like? Won't you like Kuwait to work and function like that, with a decent airport.. maybe a good transit system.. proper pavements.. no trash on the roads or being thrown out of car (Mercedes/Porche SUV's/Huge Jeeps or Hummers) windows/in front of Starbucks .. other drivers that don't try to run you down? Is it too much to dream of for such a beautiful country. Thank YOU in return!

Subhanallah ❤ look to the rich Arab Nations today, Allah granted those beduins of the past with black gold, and each other competing in higher and more higher buildings.
