What does it feel like to walk in the footsteps of pharaohs, to hear the echoes of history in the wind, and to feel the magic of the Nile at night? My name is Rasha Hamid, and as an Egyptologist and tour guide with 22 years of experience, it is my passion to share that feeling with you. A graduate of Cairo University and a proud member of WFTGA and EGTGS, I believe that the real treasures of Egypt are not just in the ancient pyramids, but in the vibrant tapestry of its daily life. I want to show you the heart of Egypt—the hidden gems in its bustling streets, the serene beauty of its Coptic and Islamic quarters, and the genuine warmth of its people. Whether you are a solo traveler or a large group, I will custom-design an itinerary that is truly yours. My tours are about quality over quantity, ensuring you have the time to fully connect with each site and moment. With my expertise and a comfortable, modern vehicle, all you have to do is relax and enjoy the journey. Let's turn your trip into an unforgettable story. I would be honored to show you the charm of both modern and ancient Egypt, tailored perfectly to you.

Our tour with Rasha began our visit to Cairo and was an excellent experience. Rasha arrived promptly at our hotel at the appointed time with the driver and private vehicle for our tour. We first visited the Egyptian Museum of Civilization - a very nice and relatively new facility providing a wonderful overview of ancient Egyptian culture and the opportunity to see the royal mummies. After completing that visit, we moved to the old Egyptian Museum. Although many items have been relocated to the new Grand Egyptian Museum, we thoroughly enjoyed visiting this historical old museum and its extensive collection. It is definitely worth the time to visit. Throughout the day, Rasha's excellent knowledge, passion for her history, and her wonderful personality made this a wonderful way to start our visit. The transportation was first rate and gave us great flexibility. Her communication in arranging the tour was timely and clear. She is a true professional and a wonderful ambassador for her country and its people. I recommend her very highly and would use her services again while visiting Cairo.

Rasha is an excellent guide. The tour is well-paced and comprehensive, especially given that I’ve visited the GEM previously so the tour required adapting.

Rasha Is an excellent guide in every regard. She was so helpful in planning our tours and then made sure our tours were all we could ask for and more. Rasha is a delight to be with! Her knowledge of all things Egyptian is exceptional. We highly recommend Rasha.

Rasha was excellent. She was knowledgeable and full of energy. We only had about 2 and a half hours, and she did a wonderful job of showing us the best of the best.

We booked a tour only for the Egyptian Museum and the bazaar in Kairo. We were thrilled by how flexible we were able to switch the program to include the coptic quarters. Rasha really went out of her way to accomodate all our wishes. This is our second tour with her and again we were astonished about her vast knowledge with which Rasha let us experience history in the todays context. We also received several hints for our further trip to luxor. With her detailed knowledge about the Egyptian history I would absolutely recommend Rasha for every tour to Kairo or any of the other sites in Egypt. We are looking forward to our next tour with her.

Rasha worked with me to customize my tour to ensure my priorities were met. She not only shared an amazing amount of knowledge about the artifacts, exhibits and ancient structures, but she provided wonderful insight into each neighborhood we passed through when moving from one place to another. She never rushed me, and welcomed all my questions. We even had wonderful conversations comparing our respective Countries in modern times. Perhaps the most fun, was an impromptu picnic, where she & our driver, Shalif (sp) introduced me to delicious Egyptian falafel! I really appreciate Rasha for making my dreams become a reality.
