Wonderful to meet the friendly and open Hamed at our hotel and driver. First stop was THE GEM and first photo the obelisk out the front. Hamed had us hooked on the stories of Rameses first and especially the treasures of King Tut. I have seen a travelling version but the Egyptian museums collection is remarkable and Hamed's explanations awesome, including the meteorite composition of Tut's dagger. Good advice not to enter the great pyramid which we ignored and an awesome dinner recommendation with walking directions home. Would have been perfect except for an expensive coffee at a sales place but overall a great day for us - camel ride as well and felt safe.

Hamad was experienced, organized, attentive to our requests, knowledgeable, relaxed and funny. The day went seamlessly. He was vigilant of our physical week being warning of steps and slippery surfaces. We packed in a lot. He advised us of choices, aware of what we wished for and courteous to us and all around him. It will be a highlight of our egyptian adventure. We never felt rushed and didn't feel we had missed anything either.

We thought Hamad was a brilliant guide. We did a day trip to the pyramids at Giza and the Grand Egyptian Museum - Hamad tailored this to our day stopover in Cairo, with collection and drop off from the airport. Extremely knowledgable and knows how to deliver a great tour.

Hamad was such an amazing tour guide. Felt extremely safe throughout the whole trip. He took us to the best places in Cairo, giza , and Sherm el- sheikh. Drove us 6 hrs to hike Moses mountain , and booked someone to hike with us. He’s extremely patient with us because we love to take pictures and videos lots of them. He’s also an amazing photographer. Definitely recommend. No need to worry about what to do and where to eat. He covers it all. Such a smooth busy trip. You will not regret.
