Fun and unique experience. Recommend.
We experienced breathtaking views at sunset. The barons are big! I was a little worried to learn that we’d have 28 people in our balloon. But it’s divided into smaller buckets so everyone gets a good spot with a good view. We had Great view of the valley. Floated over the local village. Fun landing in the fields. The whole operation is well organized. Our guide Yusari (spelling?) was awesome. Kind friendly and energetic. Only complaint? Wish it was longer!

Suffocating experience
Nice activity and opportunity to see Luxor from above, along with the surprise and the historic monuments of the west bank. The downside is that they try to pack as many passengers they can into the balloons resulting a suffocating experience.

Sunrise Balloon Ride
We had a great time on the balloon ride. Felt very safe with the Pilot Ali and our guide Yossry. Definitely worth getting up early to catch the sunrise. Great experience.

Buy Luxor tickets with our trusted local guide
We bought the tickets in Brazil on TripAdvisor to have a guarantee of good quality. We purchased for 4 o'clock in the morning, the contact Cover on the spot said we simply didn't have this time, we argued and nothing, marked at 05:45, arrived at 06h (they have no commitment with schedule), picked us up in an old taxi, we crossed the river in a lotaction style boat, then passed us to an old van without air conditioning, arriving at the very unorganized place. The balloon walk is interesting and worth the penny, when the tour ends, the balloon stops in farming areas, far away, the balloon pilot passes the coordinates to look for us, while this appears so many people in the place asking for money, between children, young and adults, start to fight, it was a very sad feeling, then the return is with old vans, have to be changing vans to make the crowds to then pick up the boat to cross, leave you old taxi to the hotel. My recommendation is not to buy in advance, check with your guide on site that he hires an Enterprise with private van, even paying more expensive. We were in six people, I do not recommend buying in advance by any Enterprise in Brazil, there are many balloons on site, there is a lot of availability. Unfortunately, our experience with Tripadvisor became desirable, very bad.

Amazing
Ali have Been the best pilot and tour guide on the air, he knows everything about the Valley of the King and Queen, and was sure everybody have time in every place to take picture. And the price for sure one of the best for the quality received.

Super great views and experience
Ragab and Captain Omar we’re terrific host!s. The trip was safe and entertaining and educational. We started just before sunrise, was up in the air when the sun rose, and landed in the desert, and took a van back to the starting place. And then we took a boat back across the Nile to our hotels. Excellent adventure highly recommend for everyone. there’s
