Excellent hot air balloon ride, everything was smooth from hotel pick up to the balloon ride itself. We were fortunate to have a very experienced pilot Abdol who made us feel very safe, was informative of the sights, and also had pre-arranged to get approval to take us to over 2000 feet, higher than the normal limit! It was an incredible experience.

This was one of the highlights of my trip to Egypt seeing the sunrise was amazing. Tour guides picked us up on time and drop off was smooth

Amazing experience and very well organised. I am so tempted to do this again as the view at sunrise over the Nile & Valley of the Kings & Queens was spectacular. I used this company based on the high level of positive reviews and have just given them 5 stars based on our excellent experience.

This hot air balloon experience with Yusuri, captain Osman and team was great. We did the sunrise balloon ride so we were picked up at 4:45am with a then driven across the water to the site for take off. The basket for the balloon has 8 sections and each one fits in 4 people but it was comfortable. They also have people helping you get in/out. We took off at around 5:30am and landed at around 6:10am. The car followed us to the landing site and we were then taken back to the hotel. The way Yusuri coordinated everyone from different hotels and drop offs etc was really good and smooth as well. The views on this balloon ride were definitely worth it and so would recommend! You see the sunrise and some temples etc. from above. Even if you’re not on the sunrise side of the basket, the captain does turn it around so everyone gets a good view. Overall really happy with it all!
