Description
Experience the magic of ancient Egypt from above with a once-in-a-lifetime hot air balloon ride in Luxor. Whether you float through the skies at sunrise or shortly after, this breathtaking one-hour journey offers panoramic views over the Valley of the Kings, Nile River, and the sprawling temples of the West Bank.
Start your day early as you’re transferred from your hotel or cruise ship in Luxor to the balloon launch site. After a short safety briefing from certified balloon pilots, ascend gently into the sky as the sun rises over the desert horizon. The calm morning air offers the perfect conditions for a smooth, peaceful ride.
From high above, take in spectacular sights including:
- The Temple of Hatshepsut
- The Colossi of Memnon
- Ancient tombs carved into the cliffs of the Valley of the Kings
- Lush green farmland along the Nile contrasting against the golden desert
This aerial adventure is one of the most popular activities in Luxor and is suitable for all ages. Whether you’re an early riser or prefer a later morning flight, both options offer equally stunning views.
This tour is operated by a licensed and insured balloon company, in full compliance with Egypt’s Civil Aviation Authority safety regulations.
Don’t miss the chance to witness the heart of ancient Thebes from a truly unique perspective.
