Great tour with the family
Overall great experience, with small details to improve. First you have to know that this trip includes an overnight in a hotel in Luxor, which is not specifically mentioned in the description of the tour. The reason for that is the hot air balloon is only possible early in the morning, but it worths the effort! :) we were taken good care of during the whole trip! Pickup in the hotel was great and we finally shared our trip with another nice couple… (initially I booked a private tour…) our guide during the first day was great and speaking our language (Hungarian), so even our parents understood most of what he was saying. :) Be prepared for the hot weather, take sunglasses and hats, as the temperature is much higher than in Hurghada. We had a busy day visiting all the most important places in Luxor and area. Was nice to stay in Luxor finally for the night, as the trip from Hurghada is about 4 hours. It was nice that on the way back Khalid took us on the highway, which was less bumpy versus the other road. We had also a nice dinner with him. Good advise, be prepared that everyone wants to sell you a lot of gifts/souvenirs in every places, but you can always negotiate… :) overall nice trip with Bella tours, also good communication, but please check all the details at least 2 days before your trip.
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to give us with your thoughts and opinions. We're glad to hear. you had a pleasant time with us, and we look forward to your return. ❤!

Private Luxor Overnight with Hot Air Balloon from Hurghada: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hurghada.
How much does Private Luxor Overnight with Hot Air Balloon from Hurghada cost?
+
Prices start at $356 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hurghada usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Luxor Overnight with Hot Air Balloon from Hurghada take?
+
Plan for about 25 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 Hurghada is not rushed.
Is Private Luxor Overnight with Hot Air Balloon from Hurghada worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hurghada, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Luxor Overnight with Hot Air Balloon from Hurghada?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Luxor Overnight with Hot Air Balloon from Hurghada suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 25-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Luxor Overnight with Hot Air Balloon from Hurghada?
+
Around 1 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 Hurghada 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 Hurghada and add a light layer if any part of the 25-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Luxor Overnight with Hot Air Balloon from Hurghada 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 Hurghada 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 Hurghada?
+
On Outty we rank every Hurghada experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hurghada Diving Adventure one Day with two Dives Boat Trip, Hurghada to Cairo: Pyramids & Museum for First-Time Visitors, Scuba Diving Full Day Boat Trip W/Lunch & Transfer from Hurghada. 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 Hurghada?
+
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 Hurghada?
+
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.
