We returned here to mainly visit the replica of Tut's tomb, but went round the house again since the one 50LE ticket is for both attractions.It still resembles a collection of period pieces collected from far & wide and placed around the house with only a little thought on placement. These have then been neglected ever since and are in sore need of some TLC. The chairs at 'Carter's Desk' have the basket-weave seats burst through, the camera is at a funny angle etc. etc.The guides description of areas was sometimes laughable - a small door inside was a kennel for 'suzie' - Mrs eLaReF said it was probably an ice-box where large blocks of ice would be kept. The café is long closed with disgusting toilets nearby.It needs to be closed and re-done completely and then looked after!So go to see the replica tomb which, if it has to be a replica, is quite well done, but don't expect too much at the house.

A few years ago, when staying on the west bank, I visited Howard Carter's house in it's state before restoration. While not open to the public at that time, anything can be opened for baksheesh (tips) especially if the head guard is not around. Having seen the house that way and now visiting the restoration, I have to say Kudos to the restoration team. I did feel like Howard could walk in at any time to sit at his desk and begin his notes. The original pieces of correspondence and post cards under the glass was a great touch. Make sure you see the film about the discovery. The tomb out back is also very very well done and has complete explanations of what you are looking at. I had heard there was going to be an effort to replicate some of the more famous and endangered tombs from the Valley of the Kings and Queens (Nefertari) in order to preserve them. I believe this is the first to be done, however. Note: The ticket to get in costs $5.00 USD, NOT 50LE. I didn't have the bill and had to buy dollars for 50LE in a small shop in order to purchase the ticket. When asked why $5, the answer was the ticket is produced by an American company and the tickets must be purchased in dollars. True? Who knows. This is Egypt!!! :-) This is well worth your time and money to visit. I do agree no guide is needed for either the house or the tomb, but it is always a good gesture of friendship to leave a small tip for the guards.

From the moment you step inside, you are transported back to 1922, the year Howard Carter discovered the tomb of Tutankhamen, funded by Lord Canarven. To see how Carter lived, to see the original letters and photo's, to actually sit in Carters chair and read his letters, was not just an experience, but a privilege.

Interesting enough, but much more could be done with the place to bring to life the work that Carter did here and the daily life of an archaeologist in the field. A place to stop if you have the time, but not a must-see by any means

Great little museum of Howard Carter and lord Carnarvon in the house which was built by Carnarvon for Carter during the time of his excavations in the valley of the kings. Also the site of a replica tomb of Tutankhamun where you can take photos and explore the tomb in more detail than in the real tomb in the valley which is due to be closed soon for conservation. Well worth the 50LE ticket.There is also a small café and a place to eat a picnic in the gardens.

Tickets obtained from the main West Bank ticket officeVery interesting way to find out more about Howard Carter and the discovery of Tutankhamun tomb.About ten rooms each containing period furniture, some of it original, and information about Carter and Tutankhamun.We used a guide who approached us at the house, which was well worth doing as even though his English was not great, he pointed out things that we would otherwise have missed, such as the small room where Carter's dog was housed. We gave him about £2 which was well appreciated.We visited the reconstruction of Tutankhamun's tomb housed about fifty meters away in the grounds of the house. I was disappointed which this, maybe I was expecting too much, but it was not as good as I had expected

The house is much more interesting than I expected and is well worth a visit. The house also has a copy of King Tuts tomb. This is surprisingly good and in some ways more interesting as the real thing as it provides much detail of the tomb and the finds that are not available at the actual tomb. Dont dismiss the place without having a look. Cheap too.

We have visited Howard Carters house many times and each time we find something different. We weren't disappointed this time they have a replica toumb of the young king. What a great idea at the house of the man that discovered him. It was so quiet on the West Bank it was just like going back in time without the tourists.

Taxi driver stopped to point out house on the hilltop as we were driving to the Valley of the Kings it is very isolated so we could not see very much,but at least we could see where Howard Carter lived.

We enjoyed our visit very much. Absolutely wonderful to be able to see the rooms as they were, the old furniture and the equipment in the kitchen. The dark rooms where he did the photography were very interesting.
