Departing from your Luxor hotel or cruise ship just before dawn, cross the River Nile to the West Bank – where your hot air balloon awaits. After a safety briefing and introduction to your ground crew and pilot, you will climb into the balloon's basket and get ready for lift off. It is then time for the gentle rise into the dawn sky.

Hot airballoon ride

I give this experience a 5 out of 5. Radwa helped us so much with the booking, and explained everything to us. She was very kind and amazing. It is something i would recommend to everyone. The agency planned everything. A car came to pick us up and brought us back to our hotel. The hot air balloon is something everyone should try. The view was breathtaking, something i never experienced before. I never expected to like it this much.

Great experience in Luxor

We did the hot air ballon today and we really enjoyed it. Sure it is an early morning with sunrise but 100% worth it. The view from above is breathtaking and the temples from above an interesting view. We recommend doing it while in Luxor/ Egypt :)

Hot air balloon ride

So glad we booked this trip, it was a last minute decision. If you are going to Luxor don’t miss out on factoring this into your plans. Worth the early wake up time for a once in a lifetime air balloon ride. The views of the temples and valley of the kings at sunrise was breathtaking.

SPECTACULAR LUXOR SUNRISE! ❤️❤️❤️

INCREDIBLE AERIAL VIEWS over the ancient Luxor with its magnificent temples, tombs, monuments etc. It was BEYOND MY EXPECTATIONS! We booked the 6:30 am ride with prompt pick up, then we had to take a short boat ride to the west side of the river. We watched as numerous extremely large balloons were slowly inflated in front of us. After a magnificent ascent, the BREATH TAKING & STUNNING SUNRISE over Luxor, was accentuated by the colorful balloons up in the sky, in our midst. We had an EXCELLENT CAPTAIN (Atmef?, not sure of the spelling) who pointed out several important ancient sites below & who made several turns so everyone in the basket could marvel at the sights at various angles. His landing was smooth & despite the unpredictable winds, he managed to land at almost the same spot where we took off. The cost was affordable with ALASKA BALLOONS LUXOR (excellent communication using What’s Up). I canvassed several tour groups that offered this activity & some of the prices were exorbitant. There was a few that quoted a price that’s about double of what I paid for. So, please research the prices before booking. It was truly a REMARKABLE & UNFORGETTABLE experience. A MUST when in Luxor!
