Absolutely breathtaking! Witness a once-in-a-lifetime sunrise view over Luxor! - 非常非常非常好的一次体验,在卢克索乘坐热气球。靠谱的公司,让我获得本次旅途最开心的时光。在热气球上可以看到整个卢克索,我真喜欢这里! If you come to Luxor, you must not miss the hot air balloon ride—it was absolutely the best value and most unforgettable experience I had in Egypt! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We set off before sunrise. The pickup arrived while it was still dark, but everything was exceptionally well-organized. The hot air balloon company provided highly professional service, and the staff patiently explained safety procedures with big smiles that instantly put us at ease. As the balloon gradually ascended, the sun slowly peeked out from the eastern horizon—that moment was truly breathtaking! The entire Valley of the Kings and the Nile Plain were bathed in golden light. In the distance, the Temple of Hatshepsut and the Colossi of Memnon stood silently in the dawn, as if millennia of history were unfolding right beneath our feet. We floated over fields, rivers, and ancient monuments—that god's-eye perspective was a magnificence no photo could ever fully capture! The pilot was skilled, with clear and entertaining commentary in English, and he thoughtfully rotated the balloon so everyone could enjoy the best views. The entire flight was incredibly smooth; even someone like me with a slight fear of heights felt completely relaxed and immersed in the experience. The landing was also very smooth, with the ground crew working in perfect coordination. After landing, we were served light snacks and presented with a flight certificate—such a thoughtful touch! I really can’t praise the company enough—from booking to landing, it was a hassle-free and full-score experience. ✨ If you’re looking for a romantic, awe-inspiring, yet safe adventure, the Luxor hot air balloon ride is absolutely worth it. This is not just a flight—it’s a visual feast that transcends time! Highly recommended!
