A hot air balloon ride over Luxor is one of the most magical experiences you can have in Egypt. Early in the morning, just before sunrise, the air is cool and crisp, and the atmosphere is incredibly peaceful. As you rise gently into the sky, the balloon pilots and crew are typically very warm, friendly, and welcoming — they love to share their knowledge and make sure everyone feels safe and excited.

Venture across the Nile to the Valley of the Kings, where pharaohs like Tutankhamun found their eternal resting place. The tombs' vibrant colors will leave you speechless.

Visit the Temple of Hatshepsut, a masterpiece of ancient architecture dramatically set against towering cliffs.
