    Scam!

    Book hot air balloon with transportation and entry to temples. Flew in from Cairo. When we landed we were told through Whatsapp they wouldn't do balloon ride and wanted us to pay more for pick up. I said we wanted refund because at that point we would be paying $220 booking fee just on transport where they expected us to wait at airport for an hour and a half. I said no. That's not what I paid for. They refuse refund. They stole our money and did not deliver anything on their end. He refused to pick us up when I told him I would not agree to any other options tomorrow. Insane. Avoid. We ended up having to get a taxi outside the airport any paying $50 for the tax of the the whole day to take us everywhere we wanted to go. This is a scam site.

    Great hot balloon experience

    Great hot balloon experience. I decided pretty late I wanted to do the hot balloon tour. Hesham arranged it PERFECTLY! You get a pick up in the middle of the night, if you are on the eastbank you will be transferred in a small boat across the Nile and then transferred to the sight were the balloons departed. The experience is just great!

    Beautiful and helpful with small kids

    Communication was amazing. Every step of the way we were in touch. The tour was great, we had small kids and they were extremely accommodating. We paid everything up front and the excursion was stress free. Loved seeing these sites.

    Incredible tour

    Amazing tour! Punctuals as in all tours. To get to the destination, we went by bus, boat (through the wonderful Nile River) and then a van. The balloons are beautiful and the baskets with divisions for up to 4 people. The view from above is amazing and at sunrise , you are stunned by the beauty . We loved the walk! We recommend everyone.

    Private Day Tour Hot Air Balloon, Valley of the kings,Hatshepsut temple in Luxor: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Luxor.

    How much does Private Day Tour Hot Air Balloon, Valley of the kings,Hatshepsut temple in Luxor cost?

    +

    Prices start at $15 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Luxor usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Private Day Tour Hot Air Balloon, Valley of the kings,Hatshepsut temple in Luxor take?

    +

    Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Luxor is not rushed.

    Is Private Day Tour Hot Air Balloon, Valley of the kings,Hatshepsut temple in Luxor worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Luxor, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private Day Tour Hot Air Balloon, Valley of the kings,Hatshepsut temple in Luxor?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Private Day Tour Hot Air Balloon, Valley of the kings,Hatshepsut temple in Luxor suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Day Tour Hot Air Balloon, Valley of the kings,Hatshepsut temple in Luxor?

    +

    Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Luxor can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Luxor and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Day Tour Hot Air Balloon, Valley of the kings,Hatshepsut temple in Luxor start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Luxor within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Luxor?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Luxor experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Half day Tour to West bank, Private Half Day Luxor Tour Valley of Kings & Queens, Hatshepsut, Full Day Tour of Luxor private. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Luxor?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Luxor?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
