“It was a great tour! Our guide, Alicia, was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the ruins. The only downside of the experience was that we had to wait 1.5 hours to do the hot balloon ride. But it was a beautiful ride.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 185 reviews · 3 hours · from $140Best value

Start around 4:00 AM with hotel pickup, a Nile boat crossing, coffee, safety briefing, and a balloon flight over Luxor’s West Bank. You’ll see Hatshepsut Temple, the Valley of the Kings, farmland, and sunrise views. Pilots Omar, Abdo, Bakr, and others are praised for calm, smooth flying.

“Everything was fine but I think the landing place of the balloons should be the same of departure place or another place. Landing in the middle of sugarcane harvest it's not safe and comfortable. I twisted my foot when I was walking toward to the cars.”
