On the 3rd of December we have enjoyed a fabulous family day at the Dar Shaikha farm in Kuwait.
We have started our day with delightful coffee, fresh juices and breakfast, follow up by event kick-off and the start of different activities, such as a guided tour around the the farm by bus, trying out padel courts, riding around on a bike or a carriage etc.
There were also activities for the little ones such as a petting zoo, colouring and a giant bouncy castle.
We have finished our day by Diwaniya Lunch with the variety of stations.
You find below some pictures from the event.
Spouses Al Salam Palace & Museum visit
On the 28th of November we organised a guided tour to the Al Salam Palace and Museum, where we have experienced Kuwait’s history in a modern and interactive way. Pictures were not allowed inside except one place, so we can’t show the interior, but it is definitely a unique beautiful museum worth the visit.
Family outing to Bait Al Arab
Outpost Kuwait was pleased to arrange a visit to Bait Al Arab, Kuwait State Stud, on Saturday 19th November 2022.
Bait Al Arab was established in 1980 to preserve the Arabian horses and to further its importance worldwide. The Arabian horse is part of the Arab world’s history and tradition.
As winter is finally here, Kuwait can be very pleasant for eating out and a bunch of various outdoor activities.

Camping
Camping in Kuwait is truly a soothing and an amazing experience. I always do it with family as it’s nice to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of the city. Here are some companies that rent out camps though I have not tried them myself:
• Prime One Holidays
• Aware centre (I’m sure most of you are familiar with them) have a yearly camp as well usually.
Hope you all enjoy Kuwait during at its best during winter, personally it’s my favourite time.
