The Luxor Hot Air Balloon from Hurghada tour offers a unique two-day journey into the heart of ancient Egypt. This unforgettable experience combines world-famous historical sites with a breathtaking sunrise balloon ride above the temples and the Nile.
Travel from the Red Sea resort city of Hurghada to legendary Luxor, once known as the capital of ancient Egypt. During this immersive trip, you will explore magnificent temples, royal tombs, and iconic monuments before floating peacefully above them at sunrise.
Your Luxor Hot Air Balloon from Hurghada adventure begins with an early pickup at 4:00 AM. After a comfortable drive of approximately 3–4 hours, you arrive in Luxor around 8:00 AM and meet your professional guide.
First, you visit the awe-inspiring Karnak Temple, the largest religious complex in ancient Egypt. Walk among towering columns, sacred lakes, and massive statues while your guide explains the fascinating history of the pharaohs.
Next, you explore the legendary Valley of the Kings, where ancient rulers were buried in elaborately decorated tombs hidden deep within the mountains.
Afterward, visit the stunning Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut, one of Egypt’s most impressive architectural masterpieces.
Before ending the sightseeing tour, stop at the famous Colossi of Memnon for memorable photos.
You will also enjoy a delicious Egyptian lunch during the day. Optional activities include a felucca ride on the Nile or visits to local workshops (additional cost). In the evening, you check into your pre-booked hotel in Luxor.
Early in the morning, around 5:00 AM, you head to the balloon launch site. The highlight of your Luxor Hot Air Balloon from Hurghada tour begins as you gently rise into the sky.

Odbiór z hotelu był punktualny. Kierowca pokierował nas na miejsce zbiórki. Ciągle był z nami nasz organizator. Pomógł nam wsiąść do kosza. Widok zapierający dech w piersi. Wszystko przebiegło prawidłowo łącznie z lądowaniem. Jesteśmy bardzo zadowoleni z lotu.
