Dubai, UAE, 8 July 2025: Wego, the number 1 travel app and the largest online travel marketplace in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), unveils the
most popular and budget-friendly short-haul destinations for Kuwait travelers seeking a quick summer escape.
All featured cities offer visa-free entry or seamless e-visa applications, making them especially convenient for last-minute getaways.
Top Destinations for Peak Summer Getaways
Wego’s latest search trends reveal that Cairo continues to lead as the most sought-after global destination for Kuwaiti travelers. The Egyptian capital
combines cultural richness and accessibility, remaining a consistent favorite for short stays.
Other popular nearby destinations this summer include Amman, Istanbul, Baku, and Tbilisi. Amman offers easy access to Petra and the Dead Sea, while
Istanbul captivates with its bazaars and Bosphorus charm. Baku blends futuristic flair with Old City allure, and Tbilisi enchants with thermal baths, rich
cuisine, and great value for money.
Among these cities, airfares remained stable or declined in several destinations. Baku and Tbilisi recorded double-digit drops in average fares compared to
last year’s summer, while Istanbul saw a decline of 8.28% year-on-year. Amman fares also edged down slightly, reflecting more accessible pricing for
summer travelers.
