Great Day For Curious Young Travelers - I booked this for my family, unsure if the kids would enjoy it. To my surprise, they were engaged the whole time. The balloon ride was gentle, and the views had them completely amazed. Our youngest even said, “It’s like flying through history.” After that, we explored the key temples with a guide who knew how to speak to both kids and adults. We didn’t feel rushed, and there were plenty of stops to relax. The driver kept everything on time, and the van had enough space for us all to stretch. I expected a good day—what we got was an unforgettable one. I really appreciated the care shown by the entire staff. This tour brought history to life for our children, and gave us a new way to enjoy it too.

A Tour as Beautifully Organized as Egypt - As someone who loves logistics, I was thrilled by how smoothly this tour ran. From the moment we were picked up in a spotless vehicle to the gentle return at sunset, it was flawless. I had low expectations for timing—but we never waited more than a minute. The guide knew exactly how long to spend in each place and tailored everything to our interests. At one point, I tripped on a step, and the staff had a bandage ready in seconds. It was impressive. Perfect for planners and perfectionists!

Unforgettable Experience - Unforgettable Experience in Luxor! This tour was hands down one of the highlights of my trip to Egypt! The day started early with a magical hot air balloon ride over the Valley of the Kings-watching the sunrise over ancient temples and tombs from above was absolutely breathtaking. The balloon crew was professional and made us feel completely safe the entire time. After landing, the full-day tour kicked off with visits to some of Luxor's most iconic sites, including the Karnak Temple, Hatshepsut Temple, and Colossi of Memnon. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and brought the history to life with fascinating stories and insights. Transportation was smooth, the itinerary was well-paced, and everything was organized beautifully. Whether you're a history buff or just looking to experience something unique, I highly recommend this tour. Bring sunscreen, comfortable shoes, and prepare to be amazed! 5 out of 5 stars - a must-do in Luxor!

Wonderful - This was an amazing experience with Dr Mo. I thought he was initially only a hot air balloon pilot but it turns out he does much more! He was informative about the Egyptian artifacts.

The setting felt magical from the beginning - At first glance, I wasn’t sure what to expect. But once I saw the balloon rising at dawn, I knew I was in for something special. The setting was magical. Even the gathering point was organized and calming. The vibe was welcoming, not chaotic. Huge thanks to the guides who kept everything flowing so gently. First impressions really matter—and this one was just right.

Scammed by the guide - Mohammad or mo was our tour guide and he scammed us out of 40 dollars. We wanted to see king tuts body and thought it was far away from everything else and he said we had to pay 20 dollars a person to go to it plus the entry ticket of 15 US dollars. We had no idea where it was and thought it would be more work for him so we figured we would pay him the extra 20 per person. When we got in we found out it was where all the other things were and what we were paying for was for him to talk for 40 minutes about the king when we could have read the boards. If you go just say you would like to buy the ticket to see king tuts body but you don’t want to pay him the extra money because he doesn’t have to do anything extra

Mixed. Dr Mo tour guide great but so much improvement can be made to trip - Booked a full day tour with Dr Mo which was very positive. Dr Mo is informative, friendly and very well educated on Egyptian history and will be able to answer all of your questions. Having a very inquisitive son who knows a lot, this is what we required. Lunch was at a place called Ali Baba and the food absolutely terrible. Egypt is very reasonably priced but this meal apart from being dry & slosh was our most expensive meal of our holiday. Purely tourist generated and really should be allowed. From this point after our balloon fiasco & appalling lunch, the day was great!! Although we didn’t see Luxor temple as advertised, we were bothered as full day, early start and you will be sent to shops to purchase things. You’re choice if you go. BALLON FIASCO This could have been handled so much better. I’d read in reviews before I booked & unfortunately this happened to us - Ballon flight cancelled! From what I understand, there are 3flights that take off every morning. Apparently we were booked on the second flight (but I booked the first slot on Tripadvisor being 5am so I still don’t understand why this is not first flight?). If there is an earlier slot, why not advertise this to your customers? When I had to chase pickup time night before (which customer shouldn’t really have to do) was told there was a 4.30 flight & if I wanted to go on earlier flight (I thought that’s what I’d booked but apparently not) it would cost another $40 per person!!! We decline at this point. A while later was then told pickup from hotel 5.40 (but I’d booked 5am? So again confused) but went with it as these guys do this daily and know what they’re doing right??? Wrong!! Our Pickup was now 5.40am and not 5am as I’d booked & it was an old bus. Not as advertised being a boat trip on Nile to cross river. Got to balloon destination which took about 20 mins. The driver was driving VERY slow so should have taken 10 mins & all passengers looking at each other in disbelief ! Flights of ballon’s just taking off which was truly magical. We waited on the side ( you will get constantly harassed by kids and if you give them money they will just swarm in) quite frightening really, we thought we were helping but you’re really not. Watched balloon taking off thinking this will be us soon - we just had to wait for them to finish their trip. 1 hr later after pickup (now 6.40) told flight cancelled and not taking off - all truly gutted. My advice this happens very frequently and get on the first flight to have best certainty you’ll get up in the air. Communication from staff in charge VERY poor, having spoken perfect English from pickup to getting to balloon destination all of a sudden they couldn’t understand you. Complete shambles. We were eventually taken to a restaurant not really understanding what was happening and waited an hour. Tried to get hold of our representative we had been messaging about what was happening & no reply!!! Also wouldn’t take our calls!! Dr Mo then turned up and explained flight cancelled and the 3 flight a day scenario as best he could. From then on day got better. We were lucky, had another day in Luxor and we really wanted to do the Hot Air Balloon. Others in our party didn’t have this luxury as we’re flying home. Dr Mo arranged this and was even our pilot the next morning. We did have to eventually pay extra 😤 but when up in the air it is truly magical. I very rarely leave such long reviews but if this advice helps at all to you, then that’s good. Happy holidays

Disappointing Experience – Hidden Fees and Poor Communication - Be prepared to be charged extra for everything. Visiting Tutankhamun’s tomb? That’s an unexpected $15 per person — not disclosed upfront — on top of the entrance ticket. The visit itself lasts barely five minutes, yet the guide charged us just to “allow us” inside. The guide spent most of the time speaking with the driver in Arabic, providing minimal to no explanation to the group. Worst of all, the night before the hot air balloon ride, I was told I had to pay an additional $15 per person just to be taken earlier — or my balloon would be canceled with no refund. It felt like a manipulative last-minute upsell. It completely brought the mood down, and we couldn’t enjoy our day in Luxor. Overall, a disappointing and unprofessional experience. I do not recommend this tour.

[Never participate in] Scam tour like garbage - It's a trashy tour. Never participate. This section is provided for your attention. · It is reported that the balloon was cancelled while waiting on board the boat on the morning of the day, even though it was the main part of the balloon. The balloons started around 5 o'clock, but it was just after 7 o'clock when they reached us. The refund is about 15% of the tour. · The tour will be changed without permission and you will not be taken to the Luxor Temple but to a high souvenir shop ・Taken to Bottakuri price shop for lunch. About 2.5 times the normal price · It costs $10 per person as a special tour of Tutankhamun, but the content is only online information. ・Ignore all requests for refunds. You might want to think that once you've paid, you won't get it back no matter how the tour changes. ・Please note that additional languages such as Japanese are $30 per person, not $30 for the whole. DrMo? It seems that there is a person who is doing the tour, but beware that he is almost like a fraud. Don't pay extra if you do. There are so many other complaints. It's almost a scam tour, so definitely don't take part.
