Spectacular - a must do in Luxor that wont disappoint
We didn't originally have this on our must do list as we had been in a balloon before but we are so glad we were talked into it. This was seriously a big high on our trip to Egypt! It was an early morning but again worth the early start to join lots of other balloons going up into the morning skies. Watch the sun rise over Luxor and the Nile far below then float silently over the temples below and mountains beyond. Other than the sounds of the burners its tranquil up there drifting in the cooler morning air high above the ground. Can't say just how much you should make this part of your trip, you wont be disappointed!!

Great time!
On behalf of the EF - Egypt 2025, the hot air balloon trip near Valley of the Kings was phenomenal. We took off near sunrise and were able to take in amazing views and a smooth trip thanks to captain Omar and his crew. The experience was wonderful!
