Wonderful trip to Alexandria with Rasha!!! - I had a wonderful and very educational trip to Alexandria with the wonderful Rasha and Karim. Rasha was extremely passionate and answered all my questions with a lot of patience and love. She was extremely wonderful and Karim was also a very nice driver. Rasha and I also had time to chat about other things and didn't have any moment of boredom. Would recommend highly!
