Embark on a hot air balloon adventure above Luxor, offering a unique opportunity to soar over ancient temples and marvel at the impressive vestiges from the age of the pharaohs.
Activity Overview
Your experience begins early in the morning with a hotel pickup in Luxor, as darkness lingers and the day is just awakening. During the journey to the launch site, you can enjoy a selection of tea, coffee, and some light breakfast to prepare for the adventure ahead.
Once at the site, you will settle into the gondola and embark on a breathtaking ride over the temples of Luxor, synchronized with the sunrise. Throughout the 50-minute flight, witness the sun illuminating the ancient ruins in brilliant hues of orange and crimson, beautifully reflected on the River Nile.
Gaze down upon the Valley of the Kings and the Valley of the Nobles, and catch a glimpse of the grand Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut, renowned for its remarkable size and harmonious presence within the surrounding landscape. This rock-carved temple complex is rightfully recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Following your flight, you will receive a flight certificate commemorating this memorable morning. Afterward, transportation will be provided to return you to your hotel in Luxor.

The service includes hotel or boat pickup and drop-off for guests located on the east bank (right bank) of the Nile River.
