Hot Air Balloon in Luxor — FAQ

What do you see on a Luxor balloon ride?
At sunrise you drift over the West Bank monuments — the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut’s Temple, the Colossi of Memnon — and the patchwork of green fields along the Nile.
What time is the Luxor balloon ride?
Flights launch at dawn for the calmest air and best light, so expect a very early hotel pickup and a Nile crossing to the West Bank launch site.
Is a hot-air balloon ride in Luxor safe and worth it?
Ballooning over Luxor is one of the world’s classic flights and a highlight for many visitors. Choose a reputable operator, and note flights are weather-dependent, so book with a flexible date.
