If you're coming from outside Kuwait, you will likely arrive at the Kuwait International Airport (KWI). From the airport, you can reach the Sheikh Abdullah Al Salem Cultural Centre by various means of transportation.
Catching a taxi from the airport is one of the easiest options. The drive to Sheikh Abdullah Al Salem Cultural Centre should take about 20 to 30 minutes depending on traffic conditions. Taxis in Kuwait are metered, and it's advisable to use official airport taxis for the best rates and safety.
If you prefer to rent a car, several car rental agencies are available at the airport. The route to the centre is fairly straightforward:
Public buses are available from the airport and various parts of Kuwait City. The bus routes can be complex, and it is advisable to check the latest schedules and routes before you travel. The bus stop closest to the cultural centre is known as the Kuwait National Museum Stop.
Services like Careem and Uber operate in Kuwait and can be an alternative to taxis. The prices are competitive and you can book a ride directly from your smartphone.
