Itinerary
- Luxor: After being picked up from your hotel or cruise ship.
Experience light pre-flight food and refreshments upon arrival, and get to know your knowledgeable pilot and ground crew. After hearing a thorough safety briefing, join your pilot and a few other passengers inside the robust basket of the balloon. Then, as your roughly 45- to 60-minute trip ascends into the still-dark sky, feel your heart race with excitement. - As the hot air balloon gently glides through the air, travelers will be able to catch a glimpse of the spectacular Temple of Hatshepsut. This magnificent temple, dedicated to the female pharaoh Hatshepsut, stands proudly against the backdrop of the surrounding cliffs. Its grand architecture and intricate carvings make it a remarkable sight to behold.
- Valley of the Kings: The Valley of the Kings, a renowned archaeological site, will come into view as travelers float by in the hot air balloon. This historic valley was the final resting place of ancient Egyptian pharaohs from the New Kingdom period. The valley's rugged terrain and hidden tombs hold secrets and treasures waiting to be discovered.
- Colossi of Memnon: As the hot air balloon continues its journey, travelers will also have the opportunity to see the Colossi of Memnon. These towering statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III once guarded the entrance to his mortuary temple. The sheer size and grandeur of these colossal statues create a striking and awe-inspiring sight.
