Sara Hassan

Cultural Historian & Desert Guide

About Sara

Sara's expertise runs from the mosques and madrasas of Fatimid Cairo to the salt lakes of Siwa. She trained as an art historian and brings that eye to everything — the geometry of a carved screen, the colour of a Coptic icon, the weave of a Siwan shawl. Her four languages and quiet warmth have made her the requested guide of travellers from Tokyo to Paris.
