Speed tour in Cairo with Peter in 1 day - just perfect. Had limited time in Cairo and asked Peter to combine a trip with a mix of culture and be immersed in (old) Cairo city life. Just intense and perfect. His knowledge of egyptian history across different periods is captivating.

Peter was an outstanding guide and was able to fit me in on short notice. I did a solo tour of the Giza pyramids. Peter had a driver pick me up at my hotel, everything was arranged and there was nothing for me to do except hop in the car and follow him. He took me through the pyramids, on the bus and provided very interesting facts and history about the pyramids site. Seeing as I was alone, Peter was willing and did really well taking photos of me to keep as souvenirs. 10/10 recommend!!!!
A great experience with a great guy who made us a perfect program! Peter, thanks for everything! See you again!🙏🏻💪🏻
So, we had an amazing time in Egypt! We stayed for 5 days and truly got to see everything — literally everything. Peter was fantastic 🤩 He shared so much knowledge with us in such a simple and engaging way. He was kind, polite, always smiling, and by the second day he honestly felt like part of the group — more like a friend than just a guide. He was also very well organised and kept everything on track with the schedule, which made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. Overall, we really couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Also, a big thank you to our driver, who was equally kind and helpful throughout the tour.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We were a group of 5 people visiting Cairo for 5 days, and we spent 4 of those days touring with our guide Peter. Choosing him was one of the best decisions of our trip to Egypt. During our tours we visited Saqqara, Memphis, Dahshur, the Giza pyramids, the Sphinx, the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) and also Alexandria, and everything was perfectly organized. Peter is extremely knowledgeable about Egyptian history and explains everything in a very interesting and easy way, making every place we visited much more meaningful. In Saqqara and Dahshur he showed us incredible sites that we would never understand on our own, and at Giza he took us to the best panoramic spots for photos. We also did an ATV ride near the pyramids and we had an amazing time — it was one of the most fun moments of the trip, and Peter organized everything perfectly for us. Seeing the pyramids and the Sphinx with his explanations made the experience unforgettable. The Grand Egyptian Museum was also a highlight, and Peter made the visit even better with all the historical details he shared. We also did a full day trip to Alexandria, visiting the Catacombs, the Roman Theater, the Citadel of Qaitbay and the modern Library, and the whole day was perfectly planned and very enjoyable. Peter was always on time, very polite, patient and helpful, and we always felt safe and comfortable. He really cares about his guests and wants them to have the best possible experience in Egypt. He is also the coolest person !! If you are visiting Cairo and want a professional, friendly and very knowledgeable guide, we highly recommend Peter. We would definitely choose him again. Thank you Peter for making our trip unforgettable!❤️
It was a nice experience.the guide explained everything very well
What an awesome and thoughtful tour guide! He was very patient in explaining everything and took time to explain everything. He even went over the allotted time to ensure we had a great experience
I had an amazing experience with Peter as my tour guide in Cairo. He was fun, smart, and incredibly educational while still being very easy-going and personable. He made great suggestions throughout the trip that really enhance my experience and help me make the most of my time in Egypt. Transportation was seamless from start to finish airport pick up and drop off were smooth and stress-free. As a female traveler, visiting Egypt, for the first time, I felt completely safe and well taken care of the entire time. Peter was professional attentive and genuinely passionate about sharing his knowledge of Egypt. I highly recommend Peter to anyone visiting Cairo, especially solo or female travelers, looking for a safe, informative and enjoyable experience!!! 🙃
Had an amazing day with Peter, covering the 2 highlights of Cairo: The Grand Museum and the Great Pyramids. Really appreciated how Peter is able to share his knowledge in a clear and inspiring way. Aside of that, we shared many laughs together! Highly recommend him!
It was an amazing experience the guidance with Peter. All the days was with a big smile and he was calm and well organized. He was also very aknowledged, with accurate historical informations about the monuments, the museums and the historical places, that we visited. At the end of our trip we were very lucky that we found such a good guide that became a good friend of us who we will visit for sure again in our next trip in Egypt!
My friends and I had an absolutely incredible 6-day trip to Egypt, and it was all thanks to our fantastic tour guide, Peter. Traveling with a group of five, we were all amazed by how seamlessly he managed our packed itinerary. Over the course of the week, Peter guided us through some of the country's most iconic sites, including the Saqqara Necropolis, the Giza Plateau, and the Egyptian Museum. He also took us to lesser-known but fascinating places like Coptic Cairo, the Cairo Citadel, and Garbage City. A highlight was our day trip to Alexandria, where we visited the New Alexandria Library, Cavafy's House, and the Greek Patriarchy. What made the experience truly special was Peter himself. He is incredibly knowledgeable, answering all of our questions with insightful details and a clear passion for Egypt's history and culture. More than that, he was a pleasure to be around—polite, friendly, and always with a positive attitude that made our long days of touring feel easy and fun. We couldn't have asked for a better guide. If we ever return to Egypt, there's no doubt we'll be booking another tour with Peter. Highly recommended!
I would highly recommend this experience! We have close friends that live in Cairo and they recommend Peter every time. He is an awesome tour guide, extremely knowledgeable, and most importantly a great person to spend the day with. I will continue to recommend this to all my friends. Thank you again!
Our trip to Egypt was truly unforgettable, thanks to our incredible guide, Peter. With his help, we were able to enjoy the amazing sight of the pyramids and the Sphinx, we loved seeing the treasures of the Grand Egyptian Museum, among other great trips. Peter has a great knowledge, it's clear how much he loves Egypt and it's history. We enjoyed his engaging stories, and his experience in being a tour guide is evident with his organisation that helped us avoid crowds. The itinerary was well-balanced, with just the right mix of exploration, relaxation, and authentic experiences. We loved Peters company, and he made our trip thoroughly enjoyable and fascinating. This trip would not have been the same without him.
Our 6-day trip to Egypt was unforgettable and much of that was thanks to our amazing guide, Peter. Egypt itself is magical, but experiencing it with Peter made it even more special. From the first day at Saqqara’s Step Pyramid to our last moments in Alexandria, every day was filled with fascinating history, beautiful sights, and thoughtful touches. Peter’s knowledge is incredible. At the Great Pyramid of Giza, the Egyptian Museum, and the Hanging Church, he brought the past to life with captivating stories and clear explanations. Everything was perfectly organised, yet he was always flexible, happy to adjust the plan if we had suggestions or wanted to linger a bit longer. In Alexandria, Peter guided us through hidden gems like Cavafy’s House and the Church of St. Savvas and explained their significance in a way that made them memorable. He also knew all the best photo spots and even helped us capture some fantastic shots (don't forget to ask him to take some photos of you, we have trained him!). Beyond being an excellent guide, Peter is a kind, warm, and fun person to be around. By the end of the trip, it felt like we were travelling with a friend. He took care of every detail, from comfortable transport to great local restaurants, making the journey seamless and stress-free. If you’re visiting Egypt, we can’t recommend Peter highly enough. You’ll see the country’s wonders, hear its stories, and come home with unforgettable memories – and maybe even a new friend.
Thanks to Peter, we really learned a lot about the amazing Egyptian culture and history. Very fun guy who wants to give you the best experience possible.
Loved the time spent with Peter on a day trip to Alexandria! He is knowledgeable about the history of Egypt in particular the ancient History. He provided a fun filled itinerary as well as explanations of the cultural sites we visited. He was patient and funny as well as open and generous. He took plenty of beautiful pictures of us on various sites without complaining or making us feel like we are bothering him! I will definitely recommend him to my friends who travel to Egypt!
There are tour guides,and there is Peter . The young scholar is a master storyteller, though he doesn't realize it yet, and is an astute professional to boot. To guide us around 5000 years of Egyptian history, he even sacrificed his Christmas celebrations with friends and family . Armed with fantastic communication skills, he effortlessly weaves the legends of millenia gone by into a seamless narrative that has his audience captivated. Shy, humble, yet fiercely proud of his heritage, he holds his own with documentary and scientific evidence. The sceptic in me was disarmed with mention of DNA studies bridging a few thousand years. Here's wishing you the best, Peter. More power to you.
We had the absolute pleasure of touring Cairo with Peter, and it was the highlight of our Egypt trip. Peter is very knowledgeable, we spent a good amount of time at the Egyptian Museum, where he patiently explained a lot of details on different artifacts, and similarly at the Pyramids of Giza and at the Sphinx. Peter gave us good tips on how to and when to visit the inside of the Pyramid, that saved us a lot of time. We also toured the Al Azhar mosque area and the Coptic sites in Cairo, he took us to a few off the beaten path places that we couldn't have explored without his guidance. He met us at the lobby of our hotel on time every day, and took us from there. He made our entire Cairo experience a pleasure, we can't wait to go back to Egypt to explore this amazing country even more. Thank you very much Peter!!
