+17Luxor Sunrise Balloon, Kings & Temples – Hurghada
Description
See Luxor from the sky and from the ground in one unforgettable day. This trip from Hurghada combines a shared sunrise hot air balloon flight with the most famous sites of ancient Egypt. It runs daily, and the minimum booking is 2 participants.
Hotel pickup in Hurghada is very early, at about 1:00 at night, so you reach Luxor in time for sunrise. The whole trip takes about 16 hours.
Luxor stands on the site of ancient Thebes, on both banks of the Nile.
Float over the Nile Valley, the temples and the mountains as the sun comes up. The balloon is shared, not private, and shared flights in Luxor usually last about 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the weather and operating conditions.
After landing, your Egyptologist guide takes you to the Valley of the Kings and the Temple of Hatshepsut on the West Bank. After lunch, you visit the huge Karnak Temple Complex.
Entrance tickets to the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple and Karnak Temple are included, as well as lunch, water, cola and snacks. Additional drinks, optional tombs and tips are extra.
Good to know: balloon flights depend on the weather and safety conditions, large bags may not be allowed in the balloon, and the order of the visits may change. Your exact pickup time is confirmed on WhatsApp or Telegram.
