I'm Rasha, a passionate licensed tour guide with years of experience in the field, who loves to show the beauty of her country to visitors from around the world. I am a pretty flexible person who loves to adjust tours according to my clients' needs, and I have worked with different travel agencies as well. I believe that I definitely have the power to personally show how much I love what I do. With the support of ToursByLocals, I have the ability to perform my tours in a way that most travel companies don't usually allow for. You could say that I choose to deliver tours through my perspective, taking into account all the major sightseeing spots, but also adding my personal taste for the experience to " live like a local". This way I not only provide knowledge, but also joy to my clients. I can offer my tours in both English and German. I make sure that my clients are satisfied with my tours and I am quite flexible to add or change itineraries according to my client's convenience. I believe to be good photographer too! I will be happy to live this experience with you! I am a Licensed Professional Tour Guide since 2008 I'm a member of the EGTGS ( Egyptian Tour Guide Syndicate) I studied Tourism in Alexandria university, Egypt, with some other minors in Tour Guiding and a major in English literature. I'm not a guide-driver, I can join you in your vehicle or arrange for a car + driver to get us around. Apart from that, I don't have specific restrictions, I'll be happy to help you navigate Egypt and see whatever is possible within the tours we take.

Overview of your Alexandria tour

In this tour you will visit the Modern library of Alexandria with its open court and reading area, plus galleries & museums. We'll also walk heading to downtown Alexandria, passing by famous squares, shops, streets & hotels. We'll even have the chance to stop and taste some delicious desserts and pastries at the most famous local pastry shop. We could enjoy a sip of Coffee in one of the oldest Greek coffee shops in Alexandria too. If you want to, there could even be some time of the tour dedicated to shopping like a true local. Along the way, we'll stop to visit the biggest cathedral of the city, and stroll by a very famous square in downtown; to enjoy its design & surrounding buildings. You will see how the old is mixed with modern, busy life. As we continue to walk, we'll indulge in living like a local, visiting the Souk (local market), famous for commercializing spices, silver, jewelry, fabrics, and accessories, as well as visiting the old fish market, where people here shop. There's something for all.

Rasha was an excellent guide. She provided an automobile to get us around. We did walk and saw the Cathedral of St. Mark the Evangilist, the historic Cecils Hotel with the Montgomery bar, and walked around the various street markets. Rasha was patient and attuned to our needs during our tour. We sampled local delicacies.

Tasha was a great and caring guide. She arranged a very nice car to transport 4 of us. At the end of the tour I wanted to walk and she kept me company and walked around town with me. Very nice. Highly recommend

We had seen some of the highlight sites on previous visits. This timer we arranged a custom tour with Rasha and visited much more of real Alexandria in depth during a half day. We feel we really saw the true Alexandria this time. A great tour and Rasha is flexible and accommodating as to the timing and flow of the tour. She is knowledgeable and a great guide. A wonderful tour and we saw what we set out to see.
