LUXOR HOT AIR BALLOON RIDE

Start your day with an unforgettable hot air balloon ride over the timeless landscapes of Luxor. Before sunrise, you'll be picked up from your hotel and transferred to the launch site on the quiet west bank of the Nile. As the crew prepares the balloon, enjoy light refreshments and a full safety briefing. Then, step into the basket and gently rise into the dawn sky just as the first light touches the horizon. For the next 30 to 45 minutes, float above some of Egypt’s most iconic sites: the vast Karnak Temple complex, the terraces of Queen Hatshepsut’s Temple, the towering Colossi of Memnon, and the Valley of the Queens glowing in soft morning light. You’ll also pass over the Ramesseum and other ancient treasures, offering incredible views and photo opportunities. After a smooth landing, you're welcomed back on the ground before returning to Luxor in time for breakfast and a full day of exploration.
