Sunrise Hot Air Balloon and the East and West Bank of Luxor
A trusted partner experience, hand-picked and featured on This is Egypt.
Overview
In Luxor, a sunrise hot air balloon will lift you above the city and surrounding monuments, giving you panoramic views across one of the world’s largest open‑air museums. From the basket you will see highlights of both the west and east banks as the ancient landscape of Thebes unfolds below. On the west bank you will explore the City of the Dead (Thebes Necropolis), marvel at the original colours at the Valley of the Kings that date back to 1500 B.C., and visit the well‑preserved Temple of Hatshepsut. You will also see the Colossi of Memnon and tour the vast Karnak Temple. On the east bank you will admire Luxor Temple, built from Nubian sandstone. The experience includes door‑to‑door transport in an air‑conditioned vehicle and a lunch, making it an easy way to combine aerial views with key archaeological sites.
