Everything was perfect. Aziz is a very good tour guide. Lunch wasn't that great—lukewarm and bland—and the drinks were overpriced.

Wasn’t sure if I’d like it, but it ended up being my favorite part of Egypt! Our pilot told us a ton about the history and the view is breathtaking. If you’re nervous, don’t worry – they make you feel safe.

Took my parents for their anniversary. The staff even got everyone to sing for them in the balloon—so cute. The ride was super smooth, and the guide pointed out stuff you’d never notice from the ground. Loved hearing the birds at sunrise. Top memory for our family.

Took my mom for her birthday. She loved it! Guide was sweet and made sure everyone was comfy. Balloon ride was so calm, and the view over the Nile was just incredible. Bring sunglasses—the glare is real.

Did this with friends. Early pickup but the sunrise was worth it. The balloon ride was peaceful, not scary at all. Karnak Temple was packed but guide made sure we saw all the best bits. Bring snacks, lunch is late.

Early start but worth it. The balloon ride was peaceful and the pilot was funny. The temples are crowded but our guide found the best photo spots. Bring sunscreen and wear comfy shoes!
