A fabulous tour, amazing experience and well worth it!
From the moment I was collected from my hotel at the start to being delivered to the next at the end, I was well looked after by my facilitator/guide, Mohamed, from Let’s Discover Egypt Tours. I was even upgraded after my original cruise boat had a malfunction before departure. The Signature Royal Olivia was a lovely boat, my room was very nice and the service was excellent. Shout out to Francis, the Maitre’d, who, along with the chefs, catered to my food allergy like a champion. The guides (and drivers) at all of the locations were professional and courteous. After my hot air balloon ride was cancelled, Mohamed came all the way from Aswan to Luxor to guide me through my last day of the tour... now that’s some excellent customer service. I highly recommend this experience with this very professional company.

Awesome
Amazing cruise. Great support from Mona Rahin throughout the whole trip. Our personal guide, Ahmed, was also incredible. Boat is very comfortable, great room and spacius bathroom. Food is great. I highly recommend this tour. All tours are included, except the balloon ride(highly recommended) and the Abu Simbel tour(I could not do it due to my return flight time). One small recommendation for the boat is to have more shaded areas on top, as it was extremely hot in May. But minor inconvenience, not to discourage taking this trip.

Dina, our guide, is the...
Dina, our guide, is the real jewel of Egypt! Luxor has truly been the highlight of my husband and I’s trip to Egypt. Dina has a great energy and passion of the history here - and I really appreciated all the information and free time at the sights she provided! She was prepare with tickets and was also kind enough to lend me shade with her umbrella! While the day is busy and hot, every second and dollar spent was beyond worth it! I felt safe and had a great time! If I’m ever back in Egypt I would definitely do this tour again, it was smooth, beautiful, educational, and absolutely memorable! I loved Dina and I loved Luxor! I can’t give a better rating than 5 stars but if I could I would! Our drivers were also prompt clean and smooth.

Sensational experience – Professional pilot and fantastic views!
An absolutely fantastic experience! It’s important to know that the company sets the start time. After some back-and-forth, we agreed on a 4:15 AM hotel pickup (originally planned for later). We actually took off shortly after sunrise around 5:30 AM. Although we were among the later launches, it didn't take away from the experience at all—the colors of the morning sky were stunning. The pilot was sensational, clearly very experienced and professional. A big plus was the basket size; we were in a smaller basket with only 20 people, rather than the usual 32, which made it feel much more personal. We reached an altitude of 3,350 ft and enjoyed perfect weather conditions during our 40-minute flight. The landing was incredibly smooth. Don't let the fixed start times stress you out; the experience is breathtaking no matter when you launch. A very reliable company and highly recommended!

From the roar of the burner as the balloon inflates to the tranquil glide over tombs and temples, Egypt hot-air balloon rides offer a new perspective on an ancient country. The former capital of Luxor is the signature spot for aerial magic. You’ll set off before dawn to capture the early morning light and, as you drift over the West Bank monuments, your pilot explains exactly what you’re seeing. Many Egypt balloon ride packages include hotel transfers, coffee, tea, and cake on landing, plus a flight certificate—it’s the perfect way to make lifetime memories.
