The West Bank of Luxor is well known as the world's biggest open air museum, with its temples, tombs and other monuments. All are within easy reach of Desert Paradise Lodge, and we will be pleased to help you visit them.

But the villages and farmland are also well worth visiting - take a walk through the sugar cane fields to the Nile, or visit the monastery of St George out in the desert. You could also visit the Hassan Fathy village to see how mud brick can produce attractive buildings today. On the East Bank, you could visit Animal Care Egypt to which we donate 10% of your booking. We can provide advice on what to see, and where to go according to your own preferences.
