Overview

You will see Luxor from above in a hot air balloon at sunrise, floating over one of the world’s largest open‑air museums. From the air you will enjoy views of both the east and west banks, taking in temples, tombs and the broad sweep of the Nile as the city wakes. On the west bank you will visit the City of the Dead (the Thebes Necropolis) and the Valley of the Kings, where you can see original colours that date back to 1500 B.C. You will also explore the well preserved Temple of Hatshepsut, dedicated to the only pharaonic woman who reigned in Ancient Egypt, and have the chance to take memorial photos in front of the Colossi of Memnon. On the east bank you will tour Karnak Temple, an outstanding ancient site of worship, and admire Luxor Temple, built from Nubian sandstone. Door‑to‑door transport by an air‑conditioned vehicle and lunch are included.
