Definitely worth it! - Views were stunning. We took the 530 flight up. We did see some variation in the pricing on Viator and were curious if we would get the same experience with the less expensive options but you definitely do. This is absolutely worth it. And the flight was very smooth- I’m not always the best with heights but had zero issues with this. Our pilot Ahmed was great!

Amazing - Amazing, great price and worth doing when in Luxor! Very friendly guys, tea & coffee provided on the boat crossing. Make sure to take water with you in the morning as there will be no chance to buy until after the flight.
Would absolutely do again with this company!

Incredible experience!... - Incredible experience! The pick-up was slightly daunting: a shabby van full of men in which all but one right at the front could speak English. However, once arriving to the West Bank, from start to finish, it was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had the pleasure of participating in. They offer a photography bundle on the spot for 25 dollars but you can opt for just pictures for 11 dollars I think it was. The photos actually came out really nice so I would also recommend that, it’s worth it. Special thanks to our captain Ahmed.

Wonderful bird's eye view of the magnificent sites, with a very interesting captain Dr. Mo! - This balloon ride was great. Dr. Mo (the captain of the balloon) was quite a character and made everyone feel comfortable and welcomed. He gave good clear instructions and safety brief. Surprisingly, he spoke many languages and kept everyone onboard entertained during the ride. We booked this activity well in advance (even before we started our Egypt trip). However, a day before this activity, the company asked us to move our time slot to the sunrise time (and pay up extra) because our pre-selected time slot (which was at a later time of the day) might get cancelled (apparently due to weather). When we declined and asked for refund so we can book a balloon ride with some other company, they kept beating around the bush. Till very late the night before the ride, we were trying to sort this out with the company. This unnecessary last minute uncertainty for international travelers was totally avoidable. In the end it all worked out and despite the headache we had to endure with the arrangement for this trip, the balloon ride with the captain Dr. Mo was exceptionally great experience!

All right. - The balloon flight was very good. Everything was properly organized.
We were not very tight in the basket so not tight which is a big plus.
The pilot was friendly and the transfer arrived on time.
The second flight was cancelled so we were placed on the first. The person from the agency responded quickly.
Small flat that does not detract from the beauty of the excursion, the departure time was indicated very late in the evening (around 11pm only) so we could not sleep before .. and for a wake up at 4am it stings.
Other than that everything was great.

Flying over the Valley of Kings! - Experience incredible, all of the balloon team were kind and very professional as to the safety of the flight, from basket to the balloon were in great condition, the walk was quiet and the experience of seeing the sun rise over the moments of the Valley of the Kings was indescribable, I recommend to all this tour

VERY COOL BALLOON RIDE - The flight was a good experience, the entire team was very professional. The only drawback was the struggle to get more money once I had paid.

Don’t book!!! SCAM - Don’t book this tour!!! On the day of the tour, they will cancel on you and will say it’s because of poor weather, then after once the tour is completed. You’ll then ask for a refund but they will then say that you didn’t show up. This is a scam.
