Must go to to experience!

This tour was recommended by our tour company EMO Tours and we are so happy we did! Ahmed and the captain Khaled of the hot air balloon was very funny and informative on the amazing Egyptian scenery below. Must go !!

Unmissable experience with a great company

Unmissable experience with a great company. Very well organised from hotel pick-up, ferry transfer across the Nile to the West Bank, travel to launch site, balloon flight and return to hotel in time for breakfast. Early hotel pick-up 4:30 am so you get to the balloon for take off in time to see the sunrise over the Nile, surrounded by many other balloons which is a spectacular sight. Very experienced Balloon Pilot Captain Khaled who we have flown with before (ask for him if you can when booking). Check weather forecast to make sure its not too windy as they can't take off if its too bad. Doesn't happen often, but best to book a day earlier in your schedule just in case they have to cancel and re-schedule. We were lucky this year as the day after our flight it was too windy and all flights cancelled for several days! It's a great once in a lifetime experience (even if you're a little scared of heights!) as you feel completely safe at all times.

very good

It was pretty good. The car picked us up and dropped us off. The hot air balloon was beautiful. The tour guide was also very attentive. Taha was very attentive. I miscounted the money and gave him 100 more. He actually returned it to me on his own initiative. Overall, it was pretty good. Give it a good review! Make up 50 words

Amazing

Top organization. All the instructions are given to reassure you if you are a little apprehensive. Safety ++ and the guide in the hot air balloon was really welcoming and kind. Overlooking all the temples at sunrise is truly a MAGICAL experience. I would do it 100 times.

inform the car number earlier

Hamada is my guide,he is very patient.Take hot air balloon should get up early to find the car, then take the boat,and transfer to another car, it takes about half an hour to arrive the destination.
