Fantastic experience
Can’t say enough great things about this! The operators were phenomenal. They reached out to me the day before and asked when we were leaving Luxor they then let us know weather conditions for the day following our originally booked ride looked better so offered to switch us. The balloon and transport to/from the balloon were perfect and we felt safe the entire time. Everything went very smoothly but we did get back to the hotel a bit later than expected.

An unforgettable hot air balloon experience in Luxor! 🎈🇪🇬
We had an absolutely magnificent experience with this agency! Everything was very well organized from start to finish. Despite an address error on our booking voucher, the team took the time to contact us to confirm the correct hotel and came to pick us up at the right place. A big thank you for their reliability and professionalism!
Before the flight, we were even able to have a coffee on the boat, a very pleasant little moment to start this beautiful adventure. ☕️
The team was top-notch, very welcoming, professional, and reassuring. Everything went perfectly and we were able to fully enjoy this magical experience, as a family, above the extraordinary landscapes of Luxor. 🤩 Our children were amazed! It was wonderful to see their wonder at these magnificent landscapes. Unforgettable memories for the whole family! ❤️
A huge thank you to the whole team for this impeccable organization and these wonderful moments!
We recommend this agency 100%! You can go there with your eyes closed! 🎈❤️

Fantastic experience. Can be highly recommended.
A completely fantastic experience and much more professionally arranged than we had expected. We were picked up at our hotel at 5:40 (the later departure) and were in the air around 7:00 with another group of balloons, which were prepared about 15 minutes after the first ones were sent up. Probably 50 balloons were sent up from the same place. It felt very safe and the captain steered the balloon incredibly safely and the landing was soft. The experience was absolutely incredibly beautiful and we flew over several of the big sites. After landing, we were driven back quite quickly. Big recommendation from here.

Awesome
It was the best experience of my life. Once in a lifetime and im happy I went through this. It was cheaper than through tour guides and they pick you up and drop you back at your hotel. Was well lookee after and the experience was amazing, breath taking views of the sunrise and below of the remains of temples and the valley of the kings. Got some beautiful photos. Thank you for the experience.

Beautiful private tour
We decided very spontaneously on this tour with a private guide on which we visited self-chosen places. Through the WhatsApp contact, it just barely worked out 2 days in advance. We were in the Valley of the Kings, at the Medinet Habu Temple, the Karnak Temple, and afterwards ate at a restaurant of our choice. All transfer routes were carried out for our group of four with an air-conditioned minibus (12 seats), where we started from the hotel and were also brought back there. We had a guide and a driver who were both extremely attentive and friendly. We were also able to flexibly change one of the destinations during the tour. Even when one person forgot their cell phone in the Valley of the Kings, our guide spoke with all the employees there and advocated for us to get it back. With the location, we then even drove back extra and got it back ;) (we really had the feeling that everyone who was there on site took care of this cell phone reappearing)
Apart from that, we learned many new things and, above all, gained completely new impressions. Our guide Hassan spoke clearly understandable English and gave us a solid foundation of historical knowledge. We were more than satisfied and got along very well. I can only recommend it to everyone else, especially with Hassan. Thank you very much, the next time it rains in Germany we will think of you and just be happy about it too ;)

Khaled was a fantastic...
Khaled was a fantastic guide! He really knows Egyptian history and explained everything in a very interesting and easy-to-understand way. His explanation of hieroglyphics was especially great.
We visited the Valley of the Kings and many other attractions, including the Valley of the Workers, which was definitely a hidden gem. We would highly recommend adding it to the itinerary — it was one of our favorite parts of the tour.
We also visited an alabaster workshop, which was a really nice experience. There was absolutely no pressure to buy anything. They welcomed us with a complimentary drink, and we even got to try making a vase ourselves.
As we were on our honeymoon, Khaled went the extra mile and surprised us with a very cute wedding gift — an alabaster plaque with our wedding date on it. It was such a thoughtful gesture and made the experience even more special.
Thank you, Khaled, for making our trip so memorable! We would definitely recommend him to anyone visiting Luxor. 10/10! 😊
Private Half Day West Bank Tour to Valley of the Kings Queen Hatshepsut Temple and Colossi of MemnonFrederic_F, Aug 2026
A great Half-Day on the West Bank with Ahmed
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with our guide Ahmed Abo Elkasem. Pick up was on-time at the Hilton in Luxor. Ahmed provided an excellent tour of the Valley of the Kings, Queen Hatshepsut Temple, and Colossi of Memnon. He was attentive to our questions and ensured we made the most of our time there. All in all, an excellent experience. I highly recommend him.

Absolutely unforgettable...
Absolutely unforgettable sunrise ballooning experience
From the very first moment, everything was perfectly organized. The pickup was on time, the team was professional and reassuring, and the whole experience felt incredibly safe. Watching the sunrise over Luxor from the sky is simply magical — a once-in-a-lifetime view. The calm, the colors, and the silence make it truly unique.
Special mention to our excellent pilot Ramadan, who made the flight even more enjoyable with his professionalism and smooth handling.
A flawless experience that I highly recommend without hesitation.

Great tour
We had an absolutely incredible experience with our tour guide! From start to finish, everything was seamless, engaging, and thoughtfully planned. What truly stood out was how knowledgeable and informative they were — every stop came with fascinating history, local insight, and stories you wouldn’t find in a guidebook.
On top of that, they were amazing at taking photos! They knew all the best angles, lighting, and hidden spots to capture the perfect shots. Not only did we leave with unforgettable memories, but we also have beautiful pictures to prove it.
Professional, friendly, patient, and passionate about what they do — I couldn’t recommend this tour guide more. If you’re looking for someone who will elevate your entire experience and make it both educational and fun, this is the one to book!

One amazing day in Luxor
We made a full day tour of the temples on the east and west bank of the Nile River in Luxor with EmoTours. Visit the Karnak Temple, Luxor Temple, Hatshepsut Temple, Valley of the Kings and Colossi of Memnon.
It was a full day, with a very rich history, always well accompanied by our guide Salwa who always knew to give us good indications and explanations about what we were going to visit. She has a lot of knowledge about the themes and temples and every question we had she could explain very well and in detail.
I highly recommend the tour with EmoTours!

A bucket list experience
Beautifully organized trip from on time pick up to perfect sunrise view in the air. This tour is exactly as advertised. The pilot was very experienced and absolutely amazing - ensuring we lifted off, floated, and landed in the best locations, with everyone getting a chance to see and take great instagrammable pictures over the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut, the exact time of the sunrise peeking over the mountains & Nile River. Sindbad team was responsive over WhatsApp, answering all of my questions in advance day & night. Thank you Lily! Highly recommend.

Not seeing something you are looking for?
While Luxor’s ancient sites are dazzling at ground-level, their scale and symmetry shine from above. Luxor hot-air balloon rides float over the West Bank and offer views of Karnak and the city at the most magical time of day—sunrise. Choose a private or group flight, enjoy included hotel or cruise transfers, and soar over mountains, tombs, and monuments cast pink by the dawn. Remember, too, that not all Luxor hot-air balloon rides are the same: while most include refreshments, pilot narration, and flight certificates, others encompass extras like post-flight breakfasts and private all-day tours of Luxor.
