Exhilarating morning balloon ride in Luxor

It is worth the early departure to take a sunrise balloon ride over the historic sites of the Luxor West Bank. We were met at the Sofitel lobby and took a brief boat ride across the Nile before loading into tour vans for the caravan ride to the launch site. It was awesome to see the many balloons inflate and light the pre-dawn sky. To see the temples, agriculture, desert, and Nile at sunrise from aloft was exhilarating to say the least. This tour is highly recommended!

An amazing balloon ride

An amazing experience, with views over the Valley of the Kings and Queens. The pilot was outstanding, and the landing was perfect.

Good experience

The experience with this company was very good, with good communication all the time. The Luxor Baloon trip was suspended because of the weather, but they give us back the money. We also ask for a cruise reservation and they answer very fast. I recommend it.

Early morning hot air balloon

Absolutely fantastic! The scenery over both the Nile and the desert was breathtakingly beautiful. We were met at our hotel by Alaaeldine and Ahmed as agreed and transported to the river where we got onto a felucca to enjoy tea/coffee and a bit to eat, before crossing to the west bank where we again entered a vehicle to our final destination. The scenery of hot air balloons taking off is just awesome. Rest assured you will be taken care of this team the have many laughs. They are a great bunch of guys that are both professional and easy going. Enjoy the journey!
