Magical Experience - This was a great option! With all the different options offered, I was confused on which one to select. I am so, so happy I chose this one. It was a perfect group size - 20 as opposed to some who had 30-35 in their baskets. Having a smaller group allowed for us to travel higher in the air. The instructions were very clear and since I was staying in an Air BnB close by, the commute was fast and easy. The landing was nice and smooth. Not once did I question my safety. This was truly the highlight of our trip.

5 stars - Excellent experience! Driver picked us up at our hotel without issue! Driver took us to a water taxi, then a bus that drove us to the launch site. The view was incredible at sunrise! Highly recommend.

Great experience - Such a great experience. They definitely have a system down. Pick up from hotel was smooth. Seems a bit hectic prior to knowing if you’re going to fly due to weather conditions, but once we got the “ok,” it was quick moving.

Unmissable!! - This is one experience one has to do when in Luxor. Get picked up nice and early from the hotel (@4am!) ,then transported by vans to the river. The Nile is crossed on a ferry ( in which you have your morning tea/coffee). Then back on the van to the balloon site. Just amazing to see the number of vans, people and the balloons getting ready for action. Finally lift off over the Valley of Kings and it's peaceful again . The ride lasts roughly 30 minutes after which we land on a field. The entire experience was amazing, the Luxor balloon group was very professional. Sure recommendation !!!

Hot air balloon ride - If you go to Luxor you MUST do this! It is a great experience. There is a lot of balloons and it is very busy but we felt safe. One of us even had a fear of heights but the accent and descent were very smooth. The view of the temples and tombs as well as the sunset spectacular.

To avoid. Very early, very long wait, 30 minutes flight time and almost static. - Hotel pick up at 4.00am, boarding in the gondola at 6.30am the sun was already up. In the meantime we wait! The weather conditions are random but the result is too disappointing. If in addition the promised flight travelled through the valley of the kings, but not we remain almost static to land a few kilometers! De olus is very expensive! My advice, enjoy a good night's sleep!
