An increasing number of Kuwaiti nationals have chosen Lebanon as their destination for Eid Al-Fitr holiday with the percentage of bookings almost hitting 100 percent. A number of Kuwaiti tourists in Lebanon told KUNA that Kuwaitis usually head to Mountainous regions such as Bhamdoun and other similar areas due to the tremendous cool weather and scenery. Resident Kuwaiti businessman Khaled Al-Duaij said that despite the decreasing numbers of tourists heading to Lebanon, Kuwaiti and GCC nationals are flooding tourist attraction areas like Bhamdoun and the mountainous area. On his part Kuwaiti national Nasser Al-Mutairi said that it was difficult to book a flight to Lebanon due to an increasing number of people eager to spend their holidays here. Tourists from the GCC region represent around 40 percent of the total number of tourists heading to Lebanon.
