Great views but squashed in basket!

The views were absolutely breathtaking! We got lucky with great weather and visibility however the main thing I didn’t like was being packed like sardines in the basket! There were 4 people per corner which was far too tight. I have flown before in Cappadocia and that was 2 per corner which was much more comfortable. Also the description on this excursion says tea/coffee served - we didn’t get this, it also says you receive a flight certificate as a souvenir - again we didn’t get this. Apart from the squashed baskets our tour guide Khaled was great and our pilot Ali was amazing! An incredible experience nonetheless and worth seeing the incredible views

Memorable experience

Its so worth the early start - such a memorable experience.Tour guide kept you informed all the way and safety istructions were clearly explained. On board the balloon, interesting facts about what we were seeing were shared and sites of interest pointedvout. Landing was a breeze! and the team were amazing at getting us back o the ground, the balloon all wrapped up and getting us back on the way to ur hotel!

Superb flight

Nice organization of the operator. I would have noted exceptionally if the balloon had flown over the Valley of Kings like some other balloon companies that day. We flew over the farmer's fields only.

The experience is...

The experience is amazing and highly recommended, of the best activities you can do in Egypt. How to improve is that the contact only occurs the day before, if you send any message you will not be answered until that day. Of fantastic rest!!!!

Not bad

Very early pickup. Balloon ride was short compared to the other tours. Pressuring for tips is very tiring

Perfect.

In the end we could not make the return for weather reasons. It seemed like a serious company and they put all the facilities for transport and not lose any activity: they picked us up on the motorship and returned us to where the group guide told us not to lose any activity we had scheduled.

Magic

Fly over the Valley of the Kings and sunrise over Luxor an unforgettable and magical moment. The contrast between the desert and the greenery of the Nile shores

The team did a good job...

The team did a good job of communicating about the weather, as there was uncertainty on the day if the balloon would be able to go. Given this, we did not catch the sunrise, but overall a good experience. On the listing, it mentions you get Coffee and tea and a souvenir flight certificate to remember your experience which we did not get.
