Great Experience - We took this tour as a family and had a great experience. Professor Ahmed El Sisi is very knowledgeable on Egyptian history and explained it all well. It was planned well with enough time to cover the attractions. Highly recommended!!!

Stunning views in the balloon. Fantastic tour with a really knowledgeable guide - We had an amazing time on this trip. The balloon ride was stunning and you saw so much of the landscape of Luxor and the tombs and temples. Our tour guide Professor Ahmed Elsisi was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable on Ancient Egypt history and enthusiastic about the subject. He made the tour very engaging with stories and questions to get you thinking, so you really feel you are learning something, which made you gain more from things you see in the tombs as you go in with an understanding of the drawing and texts. Would highly recommend.

Luxor Temples and sunrise hot air balloon. - Our guide Egyptologist and professor Ahmed Elsisi at Luxor city took us on a fantastic tour of Luxor, the temples and a boat ride on the Nile. His guidance and expertise made the entire experience a trip to remember forever. Trust me you will be very pleased to share his company for 20 hours of Egypt's history. We will definitely be booking more days again together on our return. The sunrise hot air balloon ride over Luxor was spectacular. As good as it is in the pictures.

Book this trip, we have memories which will last a lifetime ❤️ - I would thoroughly recommend this trip to anyone who wants to experience Luxor from Hurghada. Our driver was Mr Ezz and our guide was Ahmed Elsisi both provided a first class service. We were picked up from our hotel on time 4pm, driven to Luxor and was joined by Ahmed. We went to Luxor Temple which was beautiful at night, the lights were amazing. We were then taken to an Egyptian restaurant, 3 of our group ordered the chicken skewers and said it was the nicest they’ve ever tasted. We then went back to our hotel which sat on the banks of The Nile. Prompt and early collection from the hot air balloon group for the short drive over to the West Bank to start our flight. Excellent photo opportunities from the photographer (all pictures sent to me the next day) and included in the price of trip. Our flight took us over the West Bank, Valley of the Kings and great views of The Nile all as the sun was rising. We landed in a corn field and the balloon staff did a sterling job getting us down effortlessly and we appreciated the hard work involved. We then head off for breakfast with Ahmed explaining the plans for the day ahead. We did 4 tombs at the Valley of the Kings and it’s something everyone should experience. The history is unmatched. We then went an Alabaster workshop for a short demonstration and were able to buy original work from a long established business. We didn’t realise this was included in the trip and was the best surprise. We then moved on to Medinet Habu which was amazing and great to see and excellent for photo opportunities. Lunch was again was fantastic, a restaurant with a buffet of lots of Egyptian and western dishes. We then finished off with a ride on a felucca on The Nile taking in all the sights along both banks and the beautiful river boats. I cannot recommend this trip enough. The service was exceptional and our guide and Egyptologist Ahmed Elsisi was first class, providing knowledge, laughs (he’s a great sense of humour) and even pictures which he provided and sent on to us after the tour. We were back in our hotel in Hurghada for 5.45pm the next day and had experienced best day we’ve ever; this trip is worth every penny. We appreciated the hard work put in from everyone, the Egyptian culture is friendly and welcoming and I’ll be back to do more trips with Legacy Tours.

Breathtaking balloon ride and beautiful antiquities visited - We had a 2 beautiful days. First we were picked up by Mahmoud Elsawy who drove us to Luxor where we met Professor Ahmed Elsisi. The dinner served was delicious, then to the Lotus Hotel where we slept well. We got up early, because at 5 o'clock we were picked up for the balloon ride. This was breathtakingly beautiful! Then visited antiquities where our guide knew a lot to tell, this was very educational. After the antiquities we were safely taken back to our hotel in Hurghada. All in all highly recommended!

Great visit to antiquities and a fantastic balloon ride - What a great trip. We were picked up by our driver Mahmou Elsawy who took us quickly but safely to Luzor. On the way there was a short break for toilet visits. Arriving in Luxor we met our guide and Egyptologist Professor Ahmed Elsisi. After a delicious dinner in Luxor we were taken to kns hotel. The Lotus hotel was nice and very clean. There we slept wonderfully and were picked up around five o'clock by the balloon team who took us to the hot air balloon. With the balloon we made a great trip above the city and old Luxor. The drive was great and took about an hour. Then we visited the Valley of the Kings and the temple of Hatshepsut. We skipped the other sights because it had been an exhausting day all in all. After dropping the guide off in Luxor we drove back to our hotel with our driver. All in all, a fantastic day that we would not have missed for good.
