Luxor: Hot Air Balloon Ride over Luxor Relics｜Egypt

After early morning pickup from your central Luxor hotel or cruise ship, travel by air-conditioned vehicle to the launch site on the west bank of the Nile River.
Next, listen to a comprehensive safety briefing and step inside the balloon’s sturdy basket with your pilot and several other passengers. Then, feel your adrenaline surge as the brightly colored balloon rises into the sky for your approximately 30-minute (weather-permitting) flight.
As you ascend, behold the thrilling bird’s-eye views as the sunlight illuminates the temples and monuments below. Gaze down over Karnak, Queen Hatshepsut’s Temple, and other monuments while you absorb the peaceful dawn. Then, if the wind conditions are right, float over the Ramesseum, the impressive funerary temple of Pharaoh Ramses II, and gaze down at its pylons, statues, and courtyards.
While you float through the sky, a ground support van and crew will follow your balloon and will be there when you land. After a safe touchdown, step back onto land and receive your personal flight certificate. Finally, drive back to Luxor where your experience ends with a drop-off at your hotel or ship in time for breakfast and your morning tour departures.
