This place is perfect for people who want an authentic experience in the Egyptian country side. I really enjoyed getting away from the tourist cities and seeing the real Egyptian country life. Peter and his family are very welcoming and hospitable. People in the village are very friendly and welcoming as well. They will be very curious about you, just as everything in the village will be new and interesting for you, you will be new and interesting to the people in the village.
It is about the experience. The real Egyptian village life, away from big cities. The host really wants you to experience everything and wants you to meet many local people.
Peter was great host, he made us a warm welcome and was very keen to show us around in his village and the field around, he also made us meet everybody there, and his family was charming ! The village and surroundings are a very beautiful piece of countryside, on the other side Peter also took care of everything for us to visit archeological sites as to help us find ways to continue our journey, thanks to him going to Al Minyah was a great expérience, thanks Peter !
This is probably your best shot to get to see how life goes in an Egyptian village away from the touristic areas. The host is very enthusiastic and will be very happy to show you around and meet local people, acting as an interpreter to overcome the language barrier (most of the village's inhabitants speak Arabic only). It is definitely a once in a lifetime experience.
It is a precious place where you can get to know Egyptian countryside life that you cannot experience anywhere else.
It is a beautiful place and the people of this village are very kind and welcoming.
Tell Peter what you want and he will make it happen.
If you are looking for a genuine authentic Egyptian Village experience ful of warmth and hospitality this is the perfect oportunity. Peter and his family were so accommoding and gave us a taste of a rustic countryside life style. We also really appreciated Peters help in helping us with onward transportation which would have been quite challenging otherwise.
This is definitely an experience that everyone who wants to know more about the life in the Egyptian countryside should experience.
Peter, his family and friends are super welcoming, and they will be glad to show you around the village, their traditions and culture.
