Three day tours with Hamad
We ended up doing three private day tours with Hamad. We did the pyramids/saqqara one, the Egyptian museum/bazaar/citadel one and the day trip to Alexandria one. We managed to arrange very easily a private tour for all three days and Hamad was very helpful, flexible and friendly. I would really recommend joining one of his tours.
Especially the tour at the Egyptian museum was amazing as he helped us focus on the most important items that put together the pieces of a huge historical puzzle. Hamad provided useful historical and cultural information without it ever becoming boring, while he was able to answer all our questions.
The transportation was punctual and safe while the cars were clean and in great condition. The drivers were driving carefully in the chaotic streets of Cairo.
Two minor remarks for your preparation but without affecting our experience significantly:
- lunch is always at the end of the tour or quite late, so usually around 3-4pm. Make sure to bring some snacks just to make it through the day. However, Hamad made sure we had a stop at a bakery or cafe whenever we needed to get a snack.
- do some research before starting the activity to make a list of what you would like to see, outside of the standard/main attractions. I have to admit we came without having done a lot of research and in some places it was difficult to make a decision on whether we would like to visit some optional sites. This was in particular the case at Saqqara where there are many optional tombs you can visit. Hamad is very flexible but you need to know what you would like to see. Similarly, in the Alexandria library we were not sure if the reading room was worth visiting so having done some research before could have been helpful.

Wonderful day trip.
My wife and I had a wonderful day trip with Hamad, touring the Giza Pyramids, Memphis and Saqqara. Hamad is an excellent guide. He is very friendly and knowledgeable, and also gave us great advice for the rest of our trip. His car and driving are very safe, and the atmosphere for the whole day was wonderful. Highly recommended.

AMAZING !!
Hamad was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, friendly, courteous and kind.
He and our amazing driver took us on an information filled exciting day trip all around Cairo. He was extremely helpful in telling us where to go and what was worth our limited time here in the city.
Any question we had he answered, he also made a point that we were free to ask anything that came to mind. He took us to a great lunch spot at the end of our activities.
We would certainly recommend him to any person that comes here !

A really nice day
Hamad is very knowledgable and has replied to any curiosity we had. He is also a great photographer and took nice shots of us. The tour was well planned cause Hamad tailored the order of the attractions to visit in order to avoid crowds.
