By Land

Note: Owing to the current political and military situation in both Lebanon and southern Iraq, it is wise to check with the Embassy before selecting a route. There are excellent road links with Saudi Arabia and Iraq and hence on to Syria and Jordan.

Buses operate between Kuwait and Cairo via Aqaba in Jordan and Nuweiba in Egypt. There are also international bus services to Dammam in Saudi Arabia.

There are two preferred routes from the Mediterranean:

Tripoli–Homs–Baghdad–Basra–Kuwait, and Beirut–Damascus– Amman–Kuwait. The latter route follows the Trans-Arabian Pipeline (TAP line) through Saudi Arabia; the former runs across the Syrian desert.
