Overview

Sailing over Luxor in a hot-air balloon lets you see the full scope of the archaeological site, a perspective that’s impossible to get from ground level. This private guided day tour begins with majestic sunrise views, then continues to the ancient highlights: the Valley of the Kings, the Temple of Hatshepsut, the Colossi of Memnon, and both Karnak and Luxor Temples. Site entrance fees are at your own expense.

Absolute scam. Total lack of organization. To amd from the balloon ride was chaos. Tour was way overpriced. Inflated entrance fees. Lunch was 3x what it should have been. Believe all of the reviews.

The tour guide was excellent.I totally enjoyed my day with him Great personality and very knowledgeable. The tour company however Charges you $35 to see King Tuts Tomb it actually around $10.Do not buy it from them .Buy your ticket when you get there.They arrived late to pick us up for Sunrise balloon ride so I missed the sunrise.

Hot air balloon ride was a great experience and tour guide was nice but De Mo is a scam artist - do not trust what he says about entrance fees for Tutankhamen at 35 usd pp. You can buy them onsite for 10 usd for adult and 5 usd for students.
