A tour operator in Kabul. We plan and run private trips across Afghanistan, and book the flights, hotels and visa paperwork that go with them.

Short answer

Al Hamid Tour and Travel is a licensed tour operator (licence no. 459) based in Kabul, Afghanistan. We run private, guided trips to sixteen provinces, from Kabul and Bamyan to Herat, Mazar-e-Sharif and the Wakhan Corridor, and we book the flights, hotels and visa paperwork for them.
