Great experience! - The hot air balloon experience was nothing short of spectacular. The view from the balloon was absolutely breathtaking—you could see the entire Valley of the Kings on one side and the majestic Nile on the other. It was a sight to behold! The crew was highly professional, ensuring our safety and comfort throughout the journey. A special thanks to our talented pilot, who skillfully steered the balloon and executed a perfect landing. Additionally, Ziad was incredibly attentive, taking care of our every need with a smile. This experience was truly unforgettable and I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a unique adventure.

Amazing view! - The first trip was cancelled due to weather, but we were able to ride on the second day! The view from the sky was amazing! By the way, I don't speak English, but I was able to ride without any problems. Cell phones are fine, but please note that you cannot take pictures of the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut with a camera!

Well organized magical ballon flight over Luxor! - The ballon trip was magical. A view from the air of the sights we visited the day before gave us a different perspective. Everything was well organized from the pickup at the hotel, boat ride and ballon trip and return. We were well taken care of!

Surprising, beautiful and unforgettable 💚 - One of the best experiences in Egypt. Huge balloons that are truly impressive but everything is very well organized. They offer you a photo and video package but it is not necessary to purchase it.

Wonderful experience - It was a wonderful ride. We were a little concerned if we would be on time to see the sunset but we were more then on time! The space inside the ballon was great compared to the Cappadocia ballons (at least to the one I went in). It was a really wonderful experience, there were no delays, no security problems and everythinhg went wonderful. Would definitely book again!

very disorganized from... - very disorganized from the beginning. Mistakenly set the pick-up time for 5:40 even though we had booked a sunrise trip. I caught their oversight thankfully and we were picked up at the right time. When we arrived at the balloon area, turned out there was no balloon assigned to our group so we had to be dispersed among other balloons and that led to a delay in the ascent. Luckily We were still able to see the sunrise though which was the highlight of the ride. However, unfortunately our balloon only flew over the farm areas and didn’t even get close to the historic arenas like valley of the kings as it was promised and unlike most other balloons. Overall we had a suboptimal experience with this company.
