7 Things NOT To Do in Kuwait

Kuwait has changed a lot since the gulf war. It is now a wealthy and safe country with a very low crime rate, which makes it an ideal starting point for travelers who want to experience the Muslim world and Arabian hospitality. However, as with any country that is culturally different from our own there are some things NOT to do in Kuwait! 1. Don't Photograph Everything! You may want to document your trip but be careful when taking photos. Avoid taking photos of, or near infrastructure, oil fields or government buildings as this can lead to detention or arrest, also some shopping centers have prohibited photography too. 2. Don't Underdress Although Kuwaiti people are diverse and tolerant, they are conservative. Its fine to wear a bikini at the hotel pool, but not at the public beach, avoid short skirts or shorts, low necklines, and sleeveless shirts. Dress conservatively and they'll respect you for it. 3. Don't Refuse An Invite If you're invited to an Arab home always accept! It's the best way to learn more about their culture. be respectful and grateful. They will probably ask you want you think of their country, comment about the people and the culture but avoid religion and politics, especially if your views are negative, The Emir of Kuwait is venerated, and insulting him verbally or otherwise can be punished by up to 7 years prison time. 4. Don't Hire a Car! The people of Kuwait are conservative and civilized, until, they get behind a wheel! Kuwaiti drivers are not known for their respect for the highway code or indeed any rules of the road. lack of seat belts, use of mobile phones, running red lights, speeding, and lack of any kind of signaling are all too common occurrences, so the risk of an accident is high. If you can avoid hiring a car, do so! 5. Don't Stare! Staring at people is considered offensive and rude. whereas normally you may sit in a cafe and watch people walk by, in Kuwait this would be considered offensive, especially if you're staring at the opposite sex. 6. Don't Ask For a Beer! Alcohol is totally prohibited in Kuwait. It can't be imported, manufactured, or served, not even by permit holders or at a hotel. Asking for a beer in Kuwait is tantamount to asking a rock for some honey. 7. Other Things To Avoid Avoid public displays of affection, especially if you're homosexual.
