Set off before dawn and enjoy the beautiful sunrise over the Valley of Kings from the hot air balloon ride. See the entire ruins of Thebes beneath your feet and embrace the essence of ancient Egypt in the air.
The hot air balloon ride in Luxor must depart before sunrise to ensure a view of the sunrise over the west bank. The average departure time is around 4 am to the designated location on the west bank.
However, this activity also depends on the weather. When wind direction is unstable, most hot air balloon ride companies will cancel the activity.
