Ahmed is an excellent guide.    He met us at the cruise port and took us on a wonderful  day trip .  If you get a chance to travel with him, you wont be disappointed. 

Just returned from a wonderful trip - Tunis-Tozeur-Sousse-Hammamet-Tunis.

Thanks to Mr Hamdi we (2 ladies) felt safe and enjoyed the long driving trip to the south. He is very professional and accommodated our requests. Highly recommended.

Thank You Mr Hamdi. 

Hamid took us on a tour from the cruise port. He brought us a small gift. We went to the american cemetery, and many other areas.  He took us to a lovely restaurant for lunch and was very informative on local sights. We thouroughly enjoyed our tour with Hamid.

Four of us were met by Hamdi early morning outside the cruise port and returned to ship late afternoon.  We recommend Hamdi to everyone.  The day was tailor made to our requests & interests, we saw the major sites in the greater Tunis area, walked Sidi Bou Said before other travelers arrived, visited the North African American Cemetery,  Carthage, and the central souk of Tunis.  Our authentic Tunisian lunch was outstanding - sea bream was my favorite.  If you want to meet and learn of life and culture from an authentic Tunisian  who also is a friendly guide who has lived a full life and is gracious and kind, Hamdi will not dissapoint.  We met as strangers and parted as friends.

Ahmed does not come originally from a tour guide background - he is a retired ex-military and chose to pursue tourism out of personal interest. So if you're looking for someone with all of the factoids and dates memorized about every historical site he is not the kind of guide you're looking for. But Ahmed is a truly truly remarkable guide because of three main qualities.

1 - He is exceptionally well connected: if you ever need anything ranging from AAA-grade dates (fruit) from vendors in remote locations, the most knowlegeable 4x4 drivers, a historian, a local barber to give you a treat or a beduin to show you how to make bread in the desert - he knows them all and have them on speed dial.

2 - He is adaptable and resourceful: Ahmed goes to great lenghts to find out what kind of experience a guest needs, and will make it his personal mission to deliver on it. That includes a great ability to adapt plans and make adjustments to better suit his clients wishes.

3 - Great people skills: he will quickly make you feel like a friend and has a very keen sense on how to approach locals and tourists alike.

Language skills: Ahmed and I spoke in French, in which he is exceptionally fluent. He is currently working  hard on his english and by now has a level of probably B1-B2.

Ahmed thouroughly delivered on my wishes, adapted last minute to unforseen circumstances, took enormous detours for my whims and majorly surpassed my expectations for my Tunisia experience. Thank you.
