Horseback Riding

Palm Village Hotel. This hotel has stables with about a dozen horses to rent at £E80 per hour (Oct.–Apr. only), but you need to be an experienced rider since there's no instruction for beginners. There are no riding helmets available, either. Agouz village, 6 km (4 mi) northeast of Bawiti and reached by taking a left turn off the Cairo road just after the Oasis Heritage Museum, Bawiti, Giza. 02/3849–6272.
