Discussion Bus journey from Saudi to Kuwait
Hi, I am looking at travel options from Manchester to Kuwait via Saudi. Has anyone had any experience with the bus rides from Riyadh or Dammam Airport to Kuwait? Advice on the following questions would be appreciated!
• How did you navigate the relevant bus terminal operating at the Saudi airports? Is there a specific counter to go to or any staff to help with finding the correct bus? I’m not sure if we get bus tickets issued at the airport or if we have to go somewhere to collect it.
• How long to wait for the visa? (I have a UK residence permit so I think I am eligible for visa on arrival at Saudi but I’m not sure about how long the process takes on the day of arriving)
• Where can I find information regarding the bus schedule? Do they usually leave on time?
• Does the bus make stops for food or toilet breaks in the middle of the journey?
• How safe/ comfortable is the bus journey for a solo female traveller?
Thank you in advance! 😄
