A hot air balloon ride in Luxor offers a breathtaking perspective of Egypt’s ancient treasures and the stunning Nile landscape. Floating silently above the city and its archaeological wonders at sunrise is one of the most memorable experiences of Egypt, giving you panoramic views of the West Bank, including temples, tombs and the desert’s golden hues.
The adventure begins early, usually around 4:00 am. You’ll be picked up from your hotel or Nile cruise boat and transported to the launch site on the West Bank.
Many tours include a short, peaceful boat ride across the Nile to the launch site, where light refreshments may be served.
After a safety briefing, board the hot air balloon and ascend just in time to watch the sunrise over Luxor.
The flight typically lasts 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending on weather conditions.
