It is a sunrise tour, but you can't see the sunrise rising. Itinerary says 4:30 pickup, but I got in touch the day before at 6:00 pickup. I got worried and chatted with him to see if I could see the sunrise, and he said he could because it was a 6:30 flight. But on the day, at 6 o'clock, the pickup didn't come, we waited for others, and the sun eventually rose. I asked the tour operator about it and they said they didn't know. I asked other tour participants if they had booked a third flight on site. (They said the earliest flight was expensive because of the popularity of 4:30 pickup.) I was

We got picked up from our hotel around an hour and a half earlier, then transported to the West Bank via motor boat, then another short 5 minute transfer by bus to the balloon departure area and our balloon was waiting for us inflated and ready to go. The air time was around 45 minutes, the sunrise was great and the landing was perfect. We were then transported back to the hotel by bus. Total time taken was around 3 hours. Professional cameras are not allowed, although this information was not published anywhere beforehand. Action cameras and phones are OK to use.

The Legacy tour did this experience for us on Christmas Day very memorable and enjoyable. Everything went very well as they contacted and explained us the day before. They picked up us on time and we enjoyed the sunrise view over the West Bank Luxor. They took the great photos and videos of us, and shared them with us.

Rising at the crack of dawn. 3 hr trip. The majority spent being ushered/herded onto/off small boat and minibus. Camera crew encouraged joviality for added cost photo package. 30 minutes balloon ride was adequate but not particularly thrilling/exhilarating. This seems to me to mostly to be a photo opportunity impressive views but not particularly enjoyable experience.
