Good communication before the day, pick up was on time. Sadly due to the wind conditions it was cancelled after we got to the site however that is beyond their control and they were very apologetic. Offer of another day or a refund without question so I highly recommend booking with this company for piece of mind and the best safety considerations.

Unbelievable! Such a professional business! Everything was wonderful from start to finish. Our pilot had over 10 years experience and it really showed. He managed to show us both countryside and Valley of Kings and Queens. Smooth as silk landing finished off a really top experience.

Our tour was cancelled the day prior to our booking with the excuse that there were insufficient passengers. We made a subsequent booking through our hotel. There were so many balloons flying and so many passengers that I do not believe that there were not enough passengers to proceed. I believe the tour operator found a customer willing to pay more than what we had paid and cancelled on us. I would have been very disappointed to miss this experience

This was AMAZING. The transfer was well organized, they were friendly and had a good spirit, we departed with the balloon just when the sun was coming up, and the pilot was really skilled in navigating the balloon, i was quite impressed! We had enough space in the basket and the pilot was telling us what we saw and was turning the balloon so we could see it from all sides. and the view, wooooow!! 11/10!!

This was a bucket list item that we definitely checked off with great excitement & enjoyment. A late start due to weather actually added to this picture perfect experience.

One of - if not THE - most amazing experiences of my life. Allow around 4 hours in total including transfers - around 45 minutes aloft. Pick up from hotel included a motor boat trip across the Nile to a minibus waiting on the West Bank - this felt like a bonus experience with the dawn call to prayer echoing across the valley. Even watching the balloons set up and inflate is a breathtaking experience - the skill and experience of the ground crew and pilot (who said he flew Airbus jets for a domestic airline as his day job). Landing (very gentle) was in the desert south of the monuments area and we were picket up by minibus shortly after.

Such a nice experience. We went with the crew of Omar and Disri. The pick up was punctual, and Disri organized well the instructions and ensured the group was kept organized.

Fantastic experience. Hod Hod Soliman knows what they are doing and ran the morning very well. They picked us up from our cruise ship (Viking) and returned us on schedule. Over 100 balloons are launched and they go in waves. We were in a smaller basket (maximum of 20) and went off in the 2nd wave. Our pilot had over 2000 hours experience and it showed. He maneuvered the balloon to take advantage of different air currents. In the end we flew in a rough figure 8. Great experience.
