10/10 recommend this company!! Deserving of all the great reviews. The experience is a must and a highlight of our time in Luxor. Abdo was our pilot and was amazing, felt so comfortable and relaxed the whole time. He showed us all the sites and made it a fun and enjoyable ride turning the basket so everyone got to see everything. The organisation and communication was also great.

The hot air balloon ride was amazing. We had 22 people in our group and it was so much fun and such a beautiful morning. Our pilot Abdo was so much fun and we had a perfect landing.

Excellent sunrise balloon ride with Capt Abdoo and Khalid who organises the transport. We were able to see amazing sights of many monuments, temples, and tombs from the air

The experience was amazing. Abdol was an excellent hot air balloon pilot. He treated us with great respect and made the experience very much enjoyable. Recommend that one take on the outside position in the basket for best view

We had the most magical sunrise hot air balloon ride over Luxor, and I can’t recommend it enough. From start to finish, everything was smooth and safe; even the early-morning logistics felt organized and reassuring. Our pilot, Abdo, was fantastic: skilled, calm, and clearly experienced. The views were breathtaking, and the landing was so soft we barely felt it touch down. My son and I felt totally secure and amazed the entire time. A perfect way to see Luxor from above and make a lifelong memory. 100% worth the early morning!

From start to finish it was a very well oiled machine, the travel connections were seamless. The ground crew were amazing, conscious of the guests health and safety whilst revving up our excitement before the ride. They also scooped me up and placed me in the balloon as I'm a large lady with little upper body strength. Once in the air the pilot made funny chat and was pointing out the west bank places of interest... valley of the Queens, Hatshepsut's temple and a few others i can't remember the names of. The landing was smooth and controlled abs the transport team was on place ready to take us back to the hotel. There was a cameraman filming the whole trip and for a fee you can purchase it, but no pressure selling which was refreshing. One ticked off my bucket list.
