An absolutely unforgettable experience! Captain Mo Stoffa and our guide Alaa made our hot air balloon ride over Luxor truly magical. Their professionalism, knowledge, and passion ensured a smooth and breathtaking journey, offering us stunning aerial views of the Valley of the Kings and the Nile. Everything was well-organized, safe, and incredibly enjoyable

Marvelous experience
It's a marvelous trip. The flying is very stable, needn’t to be afraid it. And special thanks to Nagdy who helped me to find my phone before I even realize it was lost, really appreciate it. With Nadgy here, you needn’t to worry about this trip as he will help to manage everything well. He is a very sharp organizer and plentiful experience

Sindbad, the bad is in the name
The trip was not well organised at all, we were waiting in the van for an hour with no explanation for why. Eventually we got some information after we had to ask, the driver and the crew were not communicative or helpful at all. We were then rushed to the balloon without even being able to read the safety instructions properly. Oh, and they charged us around $100 more than everyone else on our balloon. When we told the guide that we were going to pay what everyone else paid, the guide lied to us and insisted people paid more. The actual flight was beautiful, would not recommend to do it with this company!!! Very untrustworthy!!!

Amazing 🤩
Guides: The tour guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate. They shared fascinating stories, local insights, and historical details that made the experience so enriching. Destinations: Each stop was breathtaking. [Mention specific locations, e.g., "The panoramic views of the mountains were stunning, and the serene boat ride on the lake was so peaceful."]

Exceptional flight at sunrise but flee the proposed video
The view is breathtaking at sunrise. About twenty people in the gondola but respect for groups/families. The pilot explains what we're flying over. Take-off in one place and landing in the desert a little far away with a team running. We were able to make amazing photos and videos. At altitude about 500 meters we were not cold. On the other hand we were offered a souvenir video for 15 € via whatsapp. 😤Scam because we are just filmed at the start on land then a photo montage with pictures of poor quality. To flee in my opinion. (we were well fooled...that’s the game) 😤
