Stunning flight over Luxor West Bank - Fantastic experience! We went on the after sunrise flight as it is a cheaper option, and the views above the west bank were still incredibly stunning. The team was well organised, pickup was on time and the flight so smooth that we felt totally safe and able to enjoy the whole thing despite having a slight fear of heights! Would recommend it to anyone staying in Luxor 😁

Best Balloon ride - This ballon ride is absolutely worth it. We booked the VIP option which made it even better. We were picked up from our hotel by a private boat and after crossing the Nile we twere met by a driver who took us to the balloon site. All the time our guide Marawan accompanied us and took great care of us. He made sure we had everything we needed and gave us detailed information about the ride but also about the interesting sites we passed. He really made this experience extra special

Amazing balloon ride - The view of the West Bank in Luxor I one of the most amazing views you will ever see in the entire world. The operators took very good care of us. Aside from waiting for the departure of the balloon due to the wind, everything was a pretty good experience.

A fantastic experience. - I was a little uncertain about whether hot air ballooning would be safe. But I can honestly say that it was a fantastic experience and I would do it again tomorrow! It felt surprisingly stable and I only knew we were moving because the ground was further away. It’s particularly great if you’ve already been on a tour because then you actually know what you’re looking down at and you appreciate the change in perspective. The views are incredible.

Excellent - Excellent! We were very happy with our experience. The vendor contacted us the day before to arrange pick up. Pick up was on time. As mentioned in the description and review comments, it takes a while from pickup to lift off, but we were prepared for that. The ride itself was very smooth and enjoyable. The views were incredible. Landing was also very smooth. It was a great experience and I highly recommend it.

Must Do in Luxor - One of the must do’s in Luxor. We had a great group and Syad (sp) was a wonderful and helpful tour guide. Our balloon captain guided us over some interesting sites and the sunrise was beautiful. Can’t recommend highly enough.
