Beautiful experience; the welcome was excellent, but do not expect to be alone as a couple... about 15 people.
Picked us up precisely after appointment at the hotel. Lovely view and welcoming pilot, nice experience
Exceptional experience and professional organization; For a 2nd experience, we greatly appreciated the kindness of the pilot of the hot air balloon who gave us explanations, the help of ground technicians to help my husband (with reduced mobility) to get up and down and a hearty breakfast very appreciated by all (in large quantity and choice), kindness and friendliness of the waiters, really an unforgettable day.
5 an experience too well very welcome with breakfasts
When I booked this excursion it stated in the description it would be with 1 other couple (so max 4 people) which is why I booked this particular one, to avoid crowds. However, we ended up in a balloon with a total of 16 people, and unfortuately we were not in the section of the balloon facing the most interesting scenery (the areas of the balloon are sectioned off so you can't leave you section). God forbid if someone actually planned to propose on this crowded balloon as was suggested in the description. Additionally this experience mentioned ballooning at "dawn" and seeing the sunrise but we were picked up around sunrise (6:30) and did not take off until about 2 hours after sunrise so missed this completely. Other balloons were already well in the air when we arrived on site to wait around for an hour before going up so I'm not sure how others arranged for the earlier sunrise balloon time. The flight also only lasted 30 minutes instead of 1 hour. Transfer time was about 1 hour on either side of the excursion (with various pickups/dropoffs), with the rest of the time waiting around and "breakfast" which was mostly pastries/breads (no jams) and tea. Total time was closer to 5 hours with all the transit/waiting. The only saving grace was that we had a lovely balloon pilot. Overall really disappointed with the experience.
It was a really great experience. Hospitality was excellent before and after the balloon ride. The ride itself was unexpectedly very smooth and breath taking. Definitely great value for money and amazing trip
Booked via the “Get my guide” app so we’re a little apprehensive of how it would go. However, excellent experience, slick operation from pick up, to drop off. We felt well looked after throughout, and a birthday to remember!
It was amazing experience, which I can highly recommend. The organization and communication was excellent, driver picked us in time at 4:30. I was looking for sunrise flight and reviewed the other options, but the advantage of this company that they make only one flight in a day and you don’t need to worry about the wave. And although initially it seemed a little late, finally flight time was perfect and we have catched sunrise and golden light. Our pilot Noor was amazing, she turned balloon, so everyone could have 360 view and perfect pictures and the landing was very smooth. In addition we had a small snack before flight and breakfast after.
Before the flight we got a drink with a small snack. Then we went up with Captain Noor. The last was the delicious berbers breakfast in a cozy tent. What an experience and with how much pleasure they do this job very nice! It's really worth your money.
This is not as advertised.it is two couples per section of an eight section basket just the same as all the rest.also flight time not 40 to 50 minutes more like 30.
