Most magical experience!... - Most magical experience! The initial getting there was chaotic and disorganized. once we were in the air it was so cool. Could see everything. Be aware that they are very large baskets and put 32 people to one balloon. If you end up in a certain section of the basket you might not have as good of an experience depending how the balloon is positioned and you’ll be looking over people to see things. Also some balloons had not even taken off yet when the sunrise was already starting. So I think sometimes the experience you have is based on luck. We were fortunate to be in the air at the right time and in a good spot.

The experience is... - The experience is amazing and highly recommended, of the best activities you can do in Egypt. How to improve is that the contact only occurs the day before, if you send any message you will not be answered until that day. Of fantastic rest!!!!

Great views but squashed in basket! - The views were absolutely breathtaking! We got lucky with great weather and visibility however the main thing I didn’t like was being packed like sardines in the basket! There were 4 people per corner which was far too tight. I have flown before in Cappadocia and that was 2 per corner which was much more comfortable. Also the description on this excursion says tea/coffee served - we didn’t get this, it also says you receive a flight certificate as a souvenir - again we didn’t get this. Apart from the squashed baskets our tour guide Khaled was great and our pilot Ali was amazing! An incredible experience nonetheless and worth seeing the incredible views

Superb flight - Nice organization of the operator. I would have noted exceptionally if the balloon had flown over the Valley of Kings like some other balloon companies that day. We flew over the farmer's fields only.

Not bad - Very early pickup. Balloon ride was short compared to the other tours. Pressuring for tips is very tiring
