Ace is worth a visit to see how wonderfully Kim and the team care for animals in Luxor. Beautiful new hospital and facilities to be proud of, a haven for animals in distress. Please visit and support this charity which is also sponsored by Martin Clunes.

From our first hour in Luxor it was openly evident that the life of a donkey or horse was hard with not much time for living as other equine creatures do in other parts of the world. Over the days we had seen so many half-starved, rib-cages showing through sad and over-worked donkeys and horses, pulling over-loaded carts, leading tourists... More

ACE - Animal Care Egypt is a charity run by an English woman to care for the working animals of Egypt, particularly in Luxor. After seeing donkeys and horses around the country that are in poor condition and with little to drink in the heat, and poor quality and quantity of feed, it was great to see something happening, even...

We told our tour director we wanted an afternoon carriage drive through the city with a driver who respects and cares his horse. We made a big point of this because of ACE.

Our calesh driver insisted we visit this place. I was somewhat concerned as I feared we might see some terrible sights and distressing situations. But I am very glad we did go. Apart from the interesting ride to the centre, which showed us a bit of the outlying area of Luxor and the countryside; it is an uplifting experience to... More

I have never seen such care given to animals,be it horses,donkeys,dogs or cats. Their expertise in helping sick animals is second to non. So many folk give their time for free ,and vets also give up their leave to work here. I would have to say that ACE is at the forefront when dealing with sick animals ,compared with another... More

We went here with excellent caleche driver Radwan, No 194, from near Winter Palace. We saw how any animals get free treatment at this centre whilst he washed both his working horse and a young foal he was training. Not all working animals are badly treated and those that are can have better lives from the owners being educated by... More
