I am a Palestinian Christian licensed tour guide from Bethlehem. I studied and graduated from Dar Alkalima University in tourism studies as a tour guide and I have been working as a Palestinian tour guide since 2012. I became a licensed tour guide by the Palestinian Ministry of Tourism in 2014. I took English studies at Sam Houston State University in Texas. At the same time I started working as a private tour guide I started taking Eco-tourism training and got the wilderness first Aid license. I love Archaeology and history and that's why I started my own studying and my dream is to help write the Palestinian narrative which I'm already represent my people in telling it to the visitors of Palestine. I love travelling and I have taken many trips around Europe and the USA. My favorite trip was walking the Camino de Santiago de Compostela (800 Kilometers). Travelling gave me the experience to start offering stimulating tailor-made tours, customized to suit the interests of my customers. I love Palestine and I believe I am a good Ambassador of my country and I want to encourage people from all over the world to come and hear the Palestinian narrative from the original Palestinians. I can't wait to show you around my beautiful land Palestine! So, can I count on meeting you in Palestine soon? Tour Guide Licence from the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities. Wilderness first Aid licence. Eco-Tourism Studies. I do not have any restrictions in regard to my guiding. I can offer a full range of experiences.

This tour was super interesting. Hazem knows an awful lot about the areas we visited and was accomodating to include other site visits in the tour. He explained things in great details and was fun to be with. He also does not shy away from serious topics which gives you a different point of view. Super interesting tour and I high recommend doing a tour with him. Thank you Hazem. We are still processing the overload of impressions and information ��

This tour won't disappoint! Hazem was great tour guide. He was very flexible and designed a tour that exceeded our expectations. He gave us lots of historical and cultural information and allowed us to see the everyday life through the insightful lens of a local. He was more than happy to answer our questions and he also offered recommendations of other things to do and places to eat during the tour. Can't recommend enough!

Our guide, Hazem, provided from the beginning a professional and welcome setting. Besides touring the requested sites, he provided a local and personal insight to the exprience and knowledge of the places visited, of the real lives and situations of the people currently living there, giving context to culture, geography and history. We were fast friends, and the bespoke tour gave balance to our visit to Israel and Palestine. Highly recommended.

We spent the entire day with Hazem visiting Jericho and Bethlehem. Communication, promptness, and rapport were excellent. We visited locations relevant both to Christians and Muslims including a sixth century palace with world class mosaics. We were able to include conversations pertaining to recent history and the relationship between the Israeli and Palestinian peoples. Our guide is highly recommended particularly if a deeper understanding of this is desired by guests
