luxor hot air balloon
Tour Details
Experience the majestic beauty of ancient Thebes from a breathtaking perspective with an unforgettable hot air balloon ride over Luxor.
Your journey begins in the early pre-dawn hours as you are whisked away from your accommodation by a private, air-conditioned vehicle.
Before taking to the skies, enjoy a light refreshment of tea, coffee, and cake while watching the massive balloons inflate against the twilight.
As the sun begins to crest over the horizon, you will ascend into the sky for a forty-five-minute flight that offers unrivaled panoramic views of the world’s largest open-air museum.
Drift peacefully over the sprawling temple complexes, the emerald-green ribbon of the Nile, and the rugged limestone cliffs that hide the secrets of the Valley of the Kings.
Accompanied by the expertise of a private English-speaking Egyptologist, this excursion provides a unique vantage point to appreciate the scale and architectural genius of the ancient Pharaohs.
After touching down safely, a motorboat transfer across the river and private transport will ensure a seamless return to your hotel or cruise ship, leaving you with memories of a lifetime and stunning aerial photographs of Egypt’s most iconic landmarks.
