THE PEOPLE BEHIND SEKHMET
Egypt stays
with you.
We make space for the stories, people and places that turn a trip into a memory.
Shimaa and a guest, sharing a moment in Egypt.
CHAPTER 01 / 03
01 / OUR BEGINNING
A story that began with a love of Egypt.
Shimaa Badawy founded Sekhmet Tours in memory of her sister Doaa, an Egyptologist whose joy in sharing Egypt continues to guide the way the team welcomes travelers.
Our work begins with a conversation. Tell us what draws you here—ancient sites, sacred places, desert silence, the Nile, the sea—and we shape the practical details around your pace.
02 / THE WAY WE TRAVEL
A journey with room for you.
A local conversation before the itinerary. Time for the places that matter. Support from people who know the route.
01 / LISTEN
Your reasons
Tell us what kind of Egypt you are looking for and the pace that feels right.
02 / SHAPE

03 / TRAVEL
Your experience
