for Kuwait Travelers
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.
