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.

The best vacation of my Life!

Over the course of five (5) days, we had a wonderful experience while on a cruise, experiencing the rich history and culture around Luxor, Aswan, and Abu Simbel. Everything was simple to arrange with Egypt Tours Portal, and they worked with us to create an itinerary that met our specific requirements.

AN EXCELLENT TOUR COMPANY

Experiencing the High Dam, the Unfinished Obelisk, the Philae Temple, and Abu Simbel for two days with Ahmed Haggag was indeed an incredible adventure! He has extensive expertise and is fluent in English. I appreciate you being so patient and kind.

Flexible and Big Quality

For my first trip to Egypt, I had the most amazing three-night Nile cruise from Aswan to Luxor. I learned a lot more about Egypt's history from our tour guide, Mahmoud Nour, who is the best storyteller I've ever met. A wealth of cultural, historical, and current events data was offered by him. On top of that, he provided me with a wealth of helpful information regarding staying safe as I explored different areas. This trip had a lasting impression on me.

Definitely worth it!!

With Hamdy, we had an absolutely fantastic time. He and the driver spent all day with us, and they couldn't have been nicer, more informed, or more accommodating. During this tour, he showed us wonderful, real places, and we learned a lot. Our trip was flawlessly planned, and the booking process was a breeze. Thank you once more!

Highly Recommend

I can only speak highly of my time spent using Egypt Tours Portal. Throughout our entire excursion, our guide Biko shared precise information and was quite educated. He was approachable, kind, and concerned about our well-being at all times. We were also pleasantly surprised by how promptly our driver dropped us off at each location. All in all, it was an excellent experience, and I would suggest ETP to anybody planning a rewarding pyramid tour.
